Fong IP Café is the place for some of the simplest local dishes you crave for- from laksa, fried rice, to noodles. Having said that, Chinese food seems to be of abundance here too, including some utmost scrumptious dim sum dishes. Oh, you’re in need of some heat, the laksa is a must! 

"Hey, what are we doing in an aquarium park?" is probably the first thought that will come into mind if this isn’t marketed as a restaurant.

Okay, perhaps too gory, but yeah- the fresh seafood here is what makes the place a top pick amongst travelers too. Basically, their dishes are all cooked in Chinese style. Be it freshly steamed, wet butter, kam heong or garlic vermicelli, the flavours here are extensive.

Well, if you manage to secure a seat, you’re considered one of the lucky ones that day. The restaurant is constantly packed with hungry customers who just need their seafood fix. The clanking of shellfishes and crustaceans echoes the place with an acoustic delight, as you munch down on some freshly cooked marine life, telling yourself how thankful you are for not letting this place go.

It’s really a highlight of the simplest food out there.

There’s no doubt the wings are the reel to the place, but once reeled in, there will be no regrets.
