A visit to SOUP RESTAURANT!

Today went to try out a restaurant with my parents at Orchard Paragon. Its called the "Soup Restaurant". I read its slogan: "preserves the age-old tradition of double boiled broths as well as obscure dishes that were once only eaten during your great-grandmother’s time."

Stepping into the Soup Restaurant, you are at once greeted by their waitresses with shrills of “Huan Ying!” (Mandarin for Welcome). Inside their "furniture" are those that belonged to olden times like their marbled rosewood tables for instance. The most popular dish in the house must surely be the Samsui Ginger Chicken. According to their history, it originates from the kitchen of that rare breed of females (Samsui women) who worked alongside men at construction sites in Singapore many decades ago, it was a special dish only eaten during Chinese New Year. The fun part lies in the manner of eating it. 1st u dip the steam-cooked chicken into a thick ginger sauce and wrap them in a fresh lettuce leaf and there u go...Today tried the 3-person set meal...and it was so filling!
