The menu at Ong Cheng Huat Seafood is limited in choice, as the restaurant focuses on a few main dishes. However, the food is delicious. The popular dishes here include deep fried spring chicken, steamed red snapper, boiled octopus, steamed clamp and curry prawn. The signature fried spring chicken is rather crispy, with juicy, tender flesh – very well done. Interestingly, rice is not on the menu. Customers wanting some carbs will have to go with the fried bee hoon. In a way, dining here is fun as it doesn’t feel like having a normal Chinese meal with rice.
