Catering with Delihub

DSC_7279

Way before food delivery of individual portions became a hit, we had food delivery for the masses, i.e. catering and we went back to basics for a mass gathering of 30 people. Having tried Meihao99 and Yeh Lai Siang, the crowd still chose to go with Delihub because of their signature curry chicken.

This is perhaps no secret that the kitchens of Orange Clove, Neo Garden and Delihub are the same hence if budget is an issue, opting for Delihub still gets you their signature curry chicken!

Sin Chow Bee Hoon

I am torn between bee hoon or fried rice with their curry chicken. This was  thankfully not soggy nor limp but tasty and still springy. And as usual, the portion was way too much.

Vegetables Medley

Too much starch made this actually harder to eat when it turned cold.

Spring Onion Fish

My main grouse with fish dishes at a buffet is, dory fish is typically used and this was a surprise with whole filets - I am guessing it is tilapia and these were firm and flaky too. Major plus point here!

Homemade Ngoh Hiang

Somehow finger food like this always gets polished off too quickly and this together with the sotong ball was a crowd favourite.

Hot and Spicy Drumlets

This however was not and while I had PizzaHut's hot and spicy drumlets in mind, this turned out to be a sweet bean paste saucy drumlets.

Steamed Chicken Siew Mai

Decent siew mai.

Signature Curry Chicken

And the long awaited curry chicken. Perfect with beehoon with enough coconut milk and spice.


We ended the buffet with Almond Jelly with Longan which was really just canned fruit and off the packet almond jelly.

Complimentary nibbles from CNY? These fried crabsticks were seasoned with curry and deep fried! Crazy addictive.

For the convenience, catering is still the way to go for big group gatherings. Plus, the guy comes and cleans up the tables too!

Baba Steven's Private Dining: A ex-chef turned home cook

Image
Baba Steven or Chef Steven is endearingly known as has been whipping up peranakan feasts from his Bukit Batok Home since he retired. We booked a table of 8 for a $450 dinner comprising of 8 dishes. Baba Steven's chilli is a must try, fragrant and so tasty with just white rice. I clearly overdosed on this whilst waiting for the rest to arrive, just like soy sauce and rice, so simple yet my belly was full on happiness. The feasting kind of started before the mains were served - freshly baked pineapple tarts. These open faced babies come with a mildly sweet pineapple jam baked atop a really buttery pastry shell. Bakwan Kepiting Soup This is almost a Peranakan staple across the private dinners I have done and whilst this is homecooked, I found the meatballs rolled a tad too tightly. Soup is refillable but those balls are limited to two per diner. Ayam Buah Keluak is the classic peranakan dish at all peranakan meals and Baba Steven takes pride in deshelling each of these tough nu

Jin Hua Fish Head Bee Hoon (金华鱼头米粉) @ Old Airport Food Center

Image
Jin Hua is a household name for fish soup in CBD , very much so that I have joined the relentless queues during lunch just for a bowl of steaming hot goodness. Hurray to this franchise which also sports queues but more forgiving ones! Even way past 2 pm, the queues were neverending. Sliced Fish Soup ($5) Bland broth in comparison to Hougang Hai Zhen Yuan's, the sliced fish slices made it worse since they were barely seasoned too.   It may problems with a franchise but I still prefer their fried fish version over sliced. Given now I have found an alternative, I'd probably be switching camps.  Jin Hua Fish Head Bee Hoon (金华鱼头米粉) Old Airport Food Center #01-120
