Ban Heng

It was the SA 6th anniversary dinner. This event is held annually and this year it was held Ban Heng Restaurant located at Harbourfront centre. If you’re not sure where is it, you could browse through any newspapers and could find them commercializing Dim Sum Buffet at $12.90++..

T. sir, the founder of this club. Wouldn’t further mention out his name to prevent *erhem*.  This is the man who I respect the most, the one that never give up on us even though skipped trainings lots, the one that always scold us but actually is for our own good, the one who shield and help us when we had troubles.Remembering those days when we trained until we can’t even stand still, the blood and sweat that we put into, the extra hours of pt before actual training starts. All these memories I would never forget especially him.

Alright straight to the food.
Ban Heng Five of Cold Dish Combination
Supposedly it stated a 5 combination. But came out to have 4 selections and one duplicate. Nothing much to mention about these as they taste like average snack shop ones.
Braised Shark's Fin with crab meat
The soup taste normal like some restaurant would serve..
Steam Seabass in HongKong Style
Didn’t took pic of the fish but I would its definitely a failure. Well according to their banquet menu, the fish was to be served as the 5th dish but it came out earlier. OMG the fish was like old and had a little of stinky smell. What the shit?!
Steamed Emperor Herbal Chicken
The waitress helped us to cut the chicken as it was served as a whole. The chicken was quite soft and the herbs taste wasn’t quite strong for me. Hmm could give a try on it if you guys ever visit this restaurant.

Steamed Teochew Eight Treasures VegetablesNo pictures were taken for this dish again but not because it’s not nice, but I was so indulge in it that I forgotten about it. Although its just lettuce with mushrooms and some vegetarian mock meat but they were perfectly cooked to the right taste and soft. It’s the only dish that I went for 2nd serving.
Poached Live Prawns

Braised Ee Fu Noodles with Chives & Mushrooms
Normal steamed prawns. Not gonna waste my stomach space for that. Every Chinese banquet there will be one carbo dish which it was noodles. It was bland, kind of oily. Had to eat it with green chillis.

Cream of Sago with Honeydew
Lastly the dessert. The coconut milk was tad strong. I only ate the honeydews and sagos as the cream was totally hell lots of calories.
So now then I know why they kept having promotions. Would never give a try on their Dim Sum buffet even though they are really cheap as who knows, since their banquet food were like this, their Dim Sum would be no further good too.
