Du Du Yue Cai 嘟嘟粤菜

It’s time for a revisit to Dudu Cantonese Cuisine! Since their relocation to Marsiling, they are now somewhat nearer to me, making it a little more convenient for another visit. And of course, another reason for coming back is to check out the additional dishes they have added to their menu. So, let’s see what’s new and whether they are worth trying!

Prices shown are based on members’ pricing.

The Canton Shredded Kampong Chicken was one of the dishes we had. The tender shredded chicken came with a refreshing touch of lime, making it surprisingly addictive and easy to enjoy.

Canton Shredded Kampong Chicken - $13.80

The Golden Nest was a creative take on a Tahu Goreng lookalike, but presented in a completely different style. Beautifully executed, it arrived looking like a big, crispy wrapped-up package, generously soaked in a savoury seasoning sauce and paired with cucumber and cherry tomatoes. The contrast of textures made this an interesting dish to dig into.

Golden Nest - $18.80

The server helped us disintegrate the crispy “package”, revealing what was hidden inside. Once broken apart, the egg yolk burst and oozed out, adding another layer of richness to the dish. It was certainly a creative and fun way to enjoy a fried egg!

The 500°C Dry-Steamed Beef certainly looks like a different style of cooking. The beef was cooked to a uniform dark brown colour and generously drizzled with a rich, creamy cheese sauce, making for quite a striking presentation.

I am a fan of Pig Trotters Vinegar, especially when the rich, sweet and tangy vinegar sauce goes so well with a comforting bowl of rice. The tender pork trotters soaked up all that flavour, making this a dish I could happily enjoy with plenty of rice!

The Creamy Salted Egg Corn was one of my favourites from the meal. Served bubbling hot in a claypot, the corn pieces were well coated and soaked up that savoury, creamy salted egg sauce. Simple, comforting and very satisfying!

Creamy Salted Egg Corn - $9.60

The Spicy Braised Chicken Feet was not too bad. The chicken feet were generously soaked in the rich braising sauce, with the larger pieces making for a substantial serving. A comforting dish for those who enjoy braised chicken feet with plenty of sauce.

Spicy Braised Chicken Feet - $13.80

Besides the bowl of white rice for our carbs, we also ordered the Haha Mee out of curiosity. These fine, thin noodles were tossed in their seasoning and came across as rather simple. In fact, they reminded me a little of instant noodles, just without any additional toppings.

Haha Mee - $9.90

And here’s our feast for the night! We had quite a spread of dishes, from the Golden Nest and Creamy Salted Egg Corn to the Spicy Braised Chicken Feet, 500°C Dry-Steamed Beef, Haha Mee and Canton Shredded Kampong Chicken. Definitely a satisfying spread for our revisit to Dudu Cantonese Cuisine.

Our Feast

For a little something to cool things down, there’s self-service at the fridge, where you can help yourself to a chilled glass of green bean soup. A simple and refreshing way to end the meal, especially after all those savoury dishes.

Fu Yuan Teochew Dining Greenwood 小馥苑

 A visit to Fu Yuan for their Teochew cuisine and Chinese New Year menu brought us to their second outlet, located in Bukit Timah. Having previously dined at Fu Yuan at Clarke Quay, I already had a good impression of their service and dining atmosphere.

Upon entering this outlet, the warmly lit space and modern furnishings created a welcoming and comfortable environment. 

Dining Settings

They also offer private dining rooms for those who prefer a more intimate setting.

Like many Chinese restaurants during the festive season, Yu Yuan presents its own Lunar New Year set menu.

Fu Yuan Lunar New Year Set Menu

We began our Teochew-style dining with the Pan-Fried Oyster Omelette, enjoying its delightful texture paired with generously plump oysters.

Fu Yuan also celebrates Cantonese flavours with their Grilled Black Char Siew. Expertly charcoal-grilled, it had a smoky caramelised crust with tender, flavourful meat inside, a true delight for lovers of classic Cantonese cuisine.

Grilled Kurobuta Black Char Siew 秘制黑豚猪叉烧 - $22

For live prawns, we had the Typhoon Shelter style, generously covered with fragrant garlic that was simply irresistible.

Live Prawn Typhoon Shelter 避风塘炒虾 - $38

There are several cooking styles available for the lobster, and we had the Creamy Pumpkin Boston Lobster. 

Creamy Pumpkin Boston Lobster 金瓜奶油波士顿龙虾 - $16 / 100g

The sauce was rich, creamy and addictive, so good that we found ourselves going back for more even without the lobster.

Must Eat!

The Crispy ‘Bing Chuan’ Brinjal is made using brinjals sourced from high-altitude, cool-climate regions, resulting in a firmer and lower-moisture texture. This gave the dish an extra crispy crunch while retaining the brinjal’s natural sweetness.

Cripsy 'Bing Chuan' Brinjal 脆皮冰川茄子 - $20

The Live Marble Goby Pan-Fried with Teochew-style Shark Cartilage Soup was cooked fresh to order. The fish was crispy on the outside and tender within, paired beautifully with the clean, delicate umami flavours of the rich soup, a true showcase of freshness.

Wok-Fried Preserved Radish ‘Hor Fun’ is a staple in Teochew cuisine, and this rendition was both fragrant and well executed. The flat rice noodles were expertly tossed in the wok over high heat, giving them a slight char and that unmistakable wok hei aroma. Bits of preserved radish were evenly distributed throughout the dish, adding bursts of savoury sweetness and a gentle crunch that elevated the texture. Each strand of hor fun was coated in flavour without being overly oily, making it a comforting yet satisfying dish that perfectly reflects the essence of traditional Teochew home-style cooking.

Wok-Fried Preserved Radish 'Hor Fun' 潮州菜脯河粉 - $24 / $48

We also had a double-boiled soup featuring French Poulet, salted vegetables and pig’s stomach.

The broth delivered a harmonious balance of savoury richness and subtle sweetness, with layered, complex flavours from the slow cooking process.

Of course, we had the Prosperity Abalone Yu Sheng and joyfully tossed it to usher in the Lunar New Year.

To end the meal, we enjoyed the Mashed Taro Orh Nee, Teochew-style sweet soup with peach gum, and chilled herbal jelly Gui Ling Gao.

Desserts - Mashed Taro 'Orh Nee' 潮州芋泥, Teochew Style Sweet Soup with Peach Gum 潮州桃胶清汤, Chilled Herbal Jelly 'Gui Ling Gao' 潮州桃胶清汤. 

Overall, Fu Yuan’s standard of food quality remains consistently impressive. It is an ideal place to celebrate Chinese New Year with family and friends.

Du Du Yue Cai 嘟嘟粤菜

The striking romantic pink signboard and matching pink menu have been making waves on social media. Du Du Yue Cai, located in Eunos, now occupies the former space of Hae! Claypot @ Eunos (Prawn & Lala). Interestingly, it’s still helmed by the same owner, just with a refreshed direction. As the hotpot/steamboat trend slowly cools off, they have pivoted to serving comforting Cantonese cuisine instead

Du Du Cantonese Cuisine

They are also encouraging diners to join their membership programme, where you can enjoy exclusive perks from birthday rewards to member-only prices and more.

Since it’s highly raved about, we ordered their Singapore’s 1st Crispy Orh Luak. Served in a pan, it came with generous oysters layered over an ultra-thin, crispy egg base.

Singapore 1st Crispy Orh Luak 新加坡首创酥脆蚝煎 - $19.80 / $23.80

The pairing of the crispy egg base with the soft, plump oysters created a delightful contrast in texture. The dish’s presentation was lifted with a sprinkle of chopped spring onions, adding a pop of colour.

Du Du's Recommendation

The dishes were served in rustic earthen claypots. We tried the beef strips with Japanese sauce, and the flavours were spot on, a fragrant mix of chilli, spring onions, onions, and garlic. Each piece of meat was well coated and thoroughly infused with its savoury marinade.

Beef Strips with Japanese Sauce 日式牛肋条 - $21.80 / $24.80

Another highly raved item is the Baked Yellow Croaker Fish with Lantern Chilli. The preparation with lantern chilli gave it a wonderful depth of flavour, and we thoroughly enjoyed the tender, delicate flesh of the fish.

Baked Yellow Croaker Fish with Lantern Chilli 灯笼椒焗黄花鱼 - $33.80 / $39.90

Pork Collagen Soup with Lotus Roots & Peanuts sounded close to heart, reminiscent of comforting dishes from mum’s kitchen. While the ingredients were ample, the flavour fell short for me as the soup tasted rather bland.

Pork Collagen Soup with Lotus Roots & Peanuts 胶原花生莲藕汤 - $20.90 / $24.90

The Creamy Salted Egg Corn came as a pleasant surprise. The glistening coating on each kernel immediately caught my eye, and the flavour turned out to be incredibly addictive. The golden-yellow corn was cut into smaller sections along the stem, making it easy to enjoy while soaking up all that rich, savoury salted egg goodness.

Creamy Salted Egg Corn 奶油咸蛋皇玉米 - $9.60 / $10.90

The Pork Trotter Vinegar was genuinely satisfying. Its sweet and tangy gravy paired perfectly with a bowl of rice, making it incredibly comforting. The pork trotters were braised and simmered until tender, soaking up all the rich flavours. A hearty dish that not only warms the soul but also gives you a good dose of collagen.

Pork Trotter Vinegar 猪脚醋 - $13.80 / $16.80

With the selection of dishes we picked from the menu, it felt like a fresh and interesting way to enjoy zi char together. Gathering around these claypot and Cantonese dishes made the experience even more special, especially when shared with friends and family.

Our Order

The dishes were served impressively fast, arriving one by one in quick succession. Just as we were settling in and enjoying our dinner, the staff surprised us with a small glass of chilled green bean soup for each of us, a thoughtful and refreshing touch to end the meal.
