A Once-in-a-Blue-Moon Private Dining Experience of a Majestic 300kg King Grouper https://youtu.be/bPKRhynMXQk 🐟 Dive into the world of premium Giant Grouper over at Mr Johnny Tan's restaurant. One-of-its-kind, the fish weighs nearly a whopping 300kg! Priced for its rich, thick collagen, Johnny knows the best ways to bring out the freshness and unique taste of this delicacy with a stock simmered with loads of fresh fish. Another unique stock is made with Coconut Cotelydon that give the dishes a natural sweet taste. Almost every part of the fish can be consumed, including its scales, which are used to make the nutrious Gui Ling Gao 龟苓膏.

The Har Lok, also from the hidden menu, was big and fresh, but the sauce didn't meet expectations, according to my friend.
For the price, all are okay except those in the hidden menu. It's our fault for not asking for the price, but the waitress should also have warned us before we ordered. Items from the hidden menu are not so worth it considering their value.
The atmosphere is pleasant, and the staff are friendly, although the counter lady showed impatience when we...
Read moreSZ kitchen..... An interesting restaurant in the western part of Singapore. There are a total of 3.... One at Joon Koon interchange, one at Gek Poh ( closed as of Sep 24) and the biggest one at D'Arena. The D' arena should be their flagship stall as the area serves a bigger crowd (round table that sits 10) while the others are catered to smaller lunch crowd.
One interesting thing about their flagship stall is that their have more stuff and zhi char dishes..... some unique offering is mutton fish soup. Have yet to try but might give it a go one day. Their fish soup and other dishes are pretty good as well. Worth a try when you are...
