JB Seafood Tai Pai Tong - Serangoon central

Not recommended Long waiting time between dishes Unfriendly staff, poor service Recommended if u love fried lard, heavy msg food. We ordered Da Pai Tong Fried Bee Hoon Jing Du Pork Ribs Deluxe Bitter Gourd Tofu soup The pork ribs arrived within 5 minutes and it was a big portion for two of us. We wanted to wait for the bee hoon to arrive before we start as it was our main carbs for dinner. We started eating slowly after the soup arrived since its been a while the pork was already starting to turn cold. We noticed there is plenty of fried lard in the soup which is not common. After we have finished half the pork ribs and all the soup, I went back to check on the bee hoon. The cashier say its in the kitchen and could not give an estimated time. I asked if they make it a practice to serve the dishes together so the food doesn't turn cold, a Chinese lady insist they need more time for the bee hoon and its not possible to time the dishes to be served at same time. We had no choice but to continue waiting. By the time the bee hoon arrived my table it was 30 minutes past the time on my receipt. The $10 bee hoon had plenty of fried lard and 3 small prawns, some pork slices. There are many "reserved" tables in the coffee shop for this zi char stall, all of which were empty. There was no queue for takeaway either Recommended if u love fried lard, heavy msg food.

First tried the grilled sting ray. Taste like tomyam. Freshness level not really up to standard. Will give it a second try in due time.
