Fong Sheng Hao 豐盛號

Fong Sheng Hao is a Taiwanese Cafe known for its Charcoal Grilled Toasts in Shilin Night Market. There are already 2 outlets in Singapore and Westgate is their 3rd.

The menu was quite limited and perhaps it also explained why there was no dinner crowd for quite a number of items were sold out, leaving mostly sandwiches.

Our beverages come with disposable cups. The signature Milk Tea does have a fragrance but the strongness of Milk Tea taste was absent. While most of the diners here go for their Signature Milk Tea and Cane Flavour Black Tea, I guessed these orders won't go wrong. It was said that they use 12 hours of boiled syrup for the cane flavoured black tea.

The chair has a rustic feel that brings us back to the times to the 60s / 70s.

Popcorn chickens were fragrant and while we expect the outer layer to be crispy and hard, it turned out to be another way round, soft and tender. The texture is addictive and to be honest, I could not stop popping them into my mouth continuously.

The icon Taiwanese Dish, Braised Pork Rice aka Lu Rou Fan was above average taste. I love the intensity of how the braised permeates into the pork loin as well as the strips of pork belly.

The taste and smell of spice used are present, indicating that it had been braised in dark soy sauce for some hours. Besides the pork, the bowl comprises pearl white rice as well as a braised hard-boiled egg with slices of cucumber. Braised items were savoury and went well with the bowl of plain white rice.

The Frosting Toast Sticks come together with Fong Sheng Hao Braised Pork Rice Set. It is a grainy crisp light snack that reminds me of some baby teething breadstick. It has a pleasant sweet buttery smoky flavour.

The bread is toasted upon ordering. It was then sandwiched by marinated pork cutlet that is grilled perfectly, retaining its juiciness and chewy texture. The fluffy egg and the gooey cheese added some salty flavour to the sandwich and makes the toast yummy.

I seldom get to order Toasts on my trips to Taiwan and having them over dinner was kind of inappropriate for me. Nevertheless, the vibes of Taiwan is quite familiar once we stepped into Fong Sheng Hao as we observed the Taiwanese ways of greetings and the lingo they use in the Menu.

I guess we have to make do with all these since we are restricted to travel nowadays.
