Finally had lunch at Hainan Shaoye, the queues had put me off before.
I was a bit disappointed because only lunch sets were served at lunch, and I couldn’t order any A La Carte items. This probably explains why there was no queue.
As a potential revisiting customer, I was not pleased when I asked to look at the full menu, they didn’t let me see it.
The staff there were not that co-operative, and the male looking manageress didn’t seem to like her staff.
Ordered the chicken set, and a seafood laksa.
Upon ordering the chicken, the waiter informed that all the chicken meat was white meat, so if you wanted chicken thigh, you would need to pay $10 extra.
Westerners usually prefer white meat, so I think a lot of chinese would be paying an extra $10 for thigh meat, a good way for them to profit!!
The egg mousse that was shown on the lunch product shot seemed to be missing. I wonder if it is an evening dish, if so, why put it on the lunch menu!

There was nothing spectacular with the chicken, but the soup was interesting, chicken and wolfberry soup served in a Tea Pot.
As for Laksa, it tasted slightly better, it wasn’t spicy at all. The soup was watery and not strong in coconut.
There were some dried Laksa leaves present, and the soup base reminded me of “Gozen Men’s” Laksa noodles.
