It wasn\u2019t a chilly stormy wet afternoon once I arrived at Jia Li Seafood Soup, nevertheless the sky was overcast and it wasn\u2019t exceptionally sizzling\u2014 fortunate for me!

I settled for his or her Batang<\/em> Fish Seafood Soup With Crayfish (S$14.50)<\/strong>. It got here with three crayfish halves, batang<\/em> fish slices and minced meat.<\/p>\n

\"jia

As I\u2019m an everyday of fish soup once I\u2019m not working (attempting to be more healthy), I dived straight for the batang<\/em> fish. It was agency and had no fishy aftertaste. Every chew I took met with some resistance, which works to point out that the meat is extraordinarily recent.<\/p>\n

\"jia

\"jia

The crayfish meat wasn\u2019t mushy and powdery like what I\u2019ve had from different institutions\u2014 a sign that solely the freshest seafood is served right here. If you ever want somebody to check whether or not the seafood is recent, I\u2019ll be the proper candidate\u2014 my tongue itches if the seafood isn\u2019t recent! None of that occurred to me right here.<\/span><\/p>\n

The chilli had a bitter kick which paired completely with the seafood\u2014 my eating associate and I have been hooked on it!<\/span> Jia Li Seafood Soup<\/span><\/a>\u2018s broth was seasoned completely with all of the <\/span>umami<\/span><\/i> sweetness coming from the seafood and the minced meat that was cooked with it.<\/span><\/p>\n

It jogged my memory of the steamboat broth that I’d often have once I go for seafood<\/span> hotpot<\/span><\/a> with associates. I hoped that the broth can be extra strong and flavourful\u2014 sadly it didn\u2019t work for me.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"jia

Jia Li Seafood Soup has Seafood Bee Hoon<\/em> (S$7.50)\u00a0<\/strong>on the menu and provides you choices to changeup the noodles to Mee Sua<\/em> (+S$0.70)<\/strong>, Ee<\/em>\u2013Mee<\/em> (+S$0.70)<\/strong> and Instant Koka<\/em> Noodles (+S$0.70)<\/strong>\u2014 I selected the final one as I like instantaneous noodles!<\/p>\n

\"jia

If I may drag the chef dwelling to cook dinner my instantaneous noodles for me, consider me I’d\u2019ve! The noodles have been cooked to perfection with the proper doneness and possessed a bouncy texture. It got here with two massive prawns, dory fish slices, minced meat and tomatoes served in the identical seafood broth.<\/p>\n

\"jia

I\u2019ve acquired to present props to Jia Li Seafood Soup for his or her minced meat which had mushroom bits inside. It was tremendously flavourful and there wasn\u2019t any trace of gamey style, and was pleasantly tender too.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"jia

The prawns have been exceptionally plump and naturally candy, which gave me the reassurance that the seafood served right here is of a top quality commonplace.<\/p>\n

\"jia

\"jia

Last however not least, I attempted Jia Li Seafood Soup\u2019s <\/span>Yong Tau Fu Soup 7 Pcs (S$6)<\/b>. It consisted of 1 bitter gourd, one eggplant, a couple of items of fishcake, two items of <\/span>tau kwa<\/span><\/i>, two items of bean curd pores and skin, tomatoes and inexperienced greens. It didn\u2019t comprise soya beans or anchovies like another locations I\u2019ve been to, which was completely high quality for me. The soup was completely different from the seafood broth that I had from the earlier two dishes; it was mild but flavourful.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"jia

The bitter gourd had misplaced all traces of bitterness which often places me off. It was pleasantly mushy and had soaked up all of the pure sweetness coming from the soup<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"jia

The bean curd skins have been generously full of fish paste, and acted as sponges which absorbed the entire soup\u2019s goodness. The total dish was an amazing selection to assist lower down the richness of the opposite two seafood dishes.<\/p>\n

Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Come style the freshness of their seafood or simply benefit from the heat of their comforting soups\u2014 I truly don\u2019t thoughts having this on a sizzling sunny day!<\/p>\n
