This humble restaurant along the main road is just across from Kembangan MRT station. It has roadside parking, but you can forget about that during the dinner peak hours. Fortunately, it's open till about 4am, so I often go there for supper later at night when it's cooler and there's less traffic along the road.
Seng Kee's really well known for their black herbal chicken mee sua, which I really enjoy. Served piping hot, the herbal soup has got a peppery kick to it and lots of ingredients added to it. Be sure to specify if you want lean meat, innards or both. The mee sua itself is very smooth and soft, but if you leave it sitting in the soup too long, it does get a little bit too soft!
They also serve other cooked dishes, and if you walk up to the counter, you can see all slices of fish on ice and choose the one you want. They steam their fish, and it's usually very fresh and appetizing.
I also really like the otak otak, which is a much larger version they make themselves, served on a plate. It's moist and springy, filled with lots of fish chunks, and is properly spicy.
The other dish I really enjoy is their tofu with minced meat sauce. The soft, silky tofu is drizzled in a savoury sauce cooked with minced meat. Healthy and tasty!
Lastly, the other MUST TRY are the clams (lala) that are always very fresh. I've gotten a mouthful of sand a few times, but I've had that so many times, I suppose it's only fair for it to happen every now and then! The spicy sauce is also slightly sour due to the fermented beans they cook with it, and really whets one's appetite. Every time I eat the lala, I'm left wanting more!
