Putian (Xing Hua) Kitchen (Closed)

Dean's Cafe was located deeply into the neighborhood and if it wasnt through my colleague's recommendation, I would not have known of the place existence despite having myself staying in Jurong for such a long period.

Environment of the cafe was quite welcoming especially as it has alfresco dinning with wavy trees by the side. Place was rather airy with no mozzies around and seems relaxing. We were dinning in outdoors at the lower ground and looking up into the upper ground, one will get to see the traffic of the road heading towards Jurong East direction. Bus stop is just a stone throw away and is readily accessible.

Garnished with roasted nuts and laver with a generous amount of seafood was actually quite a steal. Each strand of Xing Hua Bee Hoon is characterized by light natural flavour of Xing Hua Cuisine.

The Qing Fen is another level up of the former but in a wet version distinctively filled with toufu cubes, more pork and tau pok. It was tasty and as good as the Xing Hua Bee Hoon.

Sweet and Sour Pork with Lychee was second in serving. Pork was crisply fried and was coated with sweet sour savory sauce consisting tomatoes, pineapples, capsicums and cucumber. If not for the added sweet lychees, one would have not known that this is actually representing a Xing Hua dish.

With such a minority occupancy locally, Xing Hua Cuisine had been too commercialized and was portrayed as an expensive cuisine to start with. However, Xing Hua (Putian) kitchen has given us an alternative fix enjoying such Cuisine at a wallet-friendly pricing. If one don't mind its non air-conditioned environment and can do without a restaurant service, this is definitely a good find in the West!
