Sil Jeh Fan – Nam Tin

Sent from my iPhone

Posted via email from Caroline

For me and a lot of my Asian friends or relatives, having Chinese food is both comforting and celebratory. We’re a little unadventurous in what we order. We always say ‘next time’ we’ll choose something we haven’t tried yet, but Cha Siu, Peking Duck and For Nam are just so. damn. good. we almost always order it.

Sil Jeh Fan is a great option when you are really greedy AND don’t want to spend too much. It’s rice with a bit of all the three dishes I mentioned. Triple WIN, although you need some luck to get the better bits of the duck. Some restaurants serve chicken instead of the duck, which is a bit of a let down.

If we have starters it’s usually steamed tao si oysters or scallops and sometimes I order razor clams. If it’s an occasion, we get side orders of various greens with oyster sauce or garlic.

One day I will order the stewed stomach. One day.
