It has been a long while since I last dine at Ka-Soh. I can’t even remember when it was. And recently, we visited Ka-Soh Restaurant At Alumni Medical Centre. They have one other outlet at Amoy Street. And 3 overseas, two in Malaysia and the other in Indonesia.
Don’t expect posh looking interior like the typical Chinese Restaurant. Everything here at Ka-Soh are simple and only functional. Even the lights are make-do flourescent white.
There were 2 types of snack offered before the food arrived, an Achar and Peanuts. I love the chunky achar which has a good balance of sweetness and sourness.
First to served was the Hot Plate Egg Tofu. A satisfying dish which we have a good first impression of Ka-Soh At Alumni Medical Centre after a long while. The sauce was tasty and wasn’t too salty.
Pork Chop was crispy and flavourful though some diners find that there is room for improvement for this dish.
Fried Frog was a highly recommended dish by one of the diner who frequent Ka-Soh Restaurant At Alumni Medical Centre. On the night of our dinner, this dish didn’t turn out as well as it usually should be. Most weren’t crispy enough and lacking of honey coating evenly on all part of the surface of the meat.
Steamed Soon Hock wasn’t fresh though it wasn’t as tasty as we expected. We reckoned that it was reared and not those caught in the wild.
Cereal Prawn was pretty tasty. Each de-shelled prawn was with a light and thin batter and abundant cereal. The cereal has a good amount of curry leaves flavour but lacking of chilli spice. In addition, it was a tad sweet for my preference.
Salted Fish Fried Rice was lack tasty due to the generous amount of salted fish. However it was lacking in wok-hei.
NAHMJ Verdict
Personally, I find the standard at Ka-Soh Restaurant At Alumni Medical Centre dropped though overall was still considerably delicious.
