Tian Tian Lai Famous Teochew Fish Head Steamboat

A hidden gem perched atop an industrial building in Bedok. Quite a surprise, as I have always thought eateries belonged on the more prominent lower levels just like the first floor! Being on the top floor has its perks, drivers can park freely nearby!"

We kicked off the meal with their signature Red Grouper Steamboat, rich with umami from the seaweed, vegetables, solefish, and generous chunks of tender red grouper. The soup was so flavorful, I could not stop going back for more!

Portion was great for sharing among the four of us, with plenty of fresh, chunky red grouper pieces found in the pot. Definitely satisfying!

We began the dishes with Prawn Paste Chicken, golden and crispy on the outside, with the prawn paste aroma complementing rather than overpowering the natural sweetness and juiciness of the chicken.

The speciality tofu was cut into strips and deep-fried to perfection, crispy on the outside, soft and silky inside. Dipping it into the mayonnaise took the flavour up a notch. We loved how it was prepared!

The prawn rolls stood out to me with their unique flat shape, quite different from the usual ones, but I suppose it’s their own take on the dish. Taste-wise, it was pretty decent too.

I have always loved this combination, deep-fried sotong served with salted egg sauce. It was absolutely addictive and, needless to say, awesome!

Another crowd favourite, the Cereal Prawn! Sweet and crispy cereal generously showered over juicy prawns. It was downright yummy.

Another crowd favourite, the Cereal Prawn! Succulent prawns, well-coated with a crispy batter and topped with sweet, crunchy cereal. Absolutely yummy.

Not many places serve this dish, so we were all screaming with joy, Cuttlefish Kang Kong! A nostalgic mix of sweet and spicy flavours, loaded with generous portions of cuttlefish and kang kong.

Definitely nods of approval for the dishes served! If you’re craving a decent Fish Steamboat and solid Cze Char dishes, this place is worth a visit.
