Family Dinners

The dearie's family are Teochews. They enjoy their traditional Teochew food like steamed fish, braised goose and cold crab. Coming from a small family, its feels great to have family dinners with the in-laws. Typical dinner outings involves the sis-in-law and her family, the grandmother, uncle and the in-laws.
The Requisite Cold Crab.. *Yums*.

The family enjoys traditional Teochew cuisine, and a favourite restaurant which we usually troop to for festive occasions would be SWA Garden Restaurant. The food is traditional, with an old world charm which is lacking from modern restaurants. The place itself looks like the 60s.. but the place is full to the brim with patrons on the weekends. Reservations are a must. I have been duly induced into the wonders of Teochew food upon joining the family. I must say, the food's great.. especially the cold crab.. fresh steamed fish, goose and the "Orh Ni" or Yam Paste with Pumpkin. The food's best eaten with family. Yums.. just like the meal tonight which is so typical of family outings to the restaurant, or any other good restaurants that does Teochew cuisine.
