I <3 Cereal Prawns!


Butter cereal prawns, originally uploaded by Camemberu.

And this is not just cereal prawn but butter cereal prawns! Extra fragrant, yummy and still crisp, despite being a takeaway. I ate even the skins and tails (not the heads though, although I peeled the tasty batter off them). And I love the crispy bits with curry leaves and sliced chili padi. Whoever invented cereal prawns, I am greatly indebted. It's one of my favourite dishes that I never get sick of, although when I first heard about it many years ago, I avoided it because the concept sounded terrible - cereal with prawns? Oh my, who would have thought it could be so delicious?

p.s. The other dishes at this place may not be so good - I didn't add photos of the bland fried rice and fried horfun.

  2. jx, well, the cereal prawn was the only thing I enjoyed. Other dishes (supposed Thai-style fried rice, fried horfun) were quite bland and tasteless. I didn't bother to put up the photos here.

  5. Try the Cze Char Stall opposite Maggie's...Cereal Prawns, Mee Goreng, Fried minced meat Eggs, Fried Fritters are just as nice if not better.
