There's a claypot stall tucked away at a corner on the second floor that is usually extremely crowded. It was fairly quiet yesterday, maybe because it was Monday. My husband and I had tried to eat there on 2 occasions a few months back, but had given up because they were too busy one time, and because they had run out the other time.
They cook the rice with all the condiments on these stoves.
CAN YOU SEE THE STEAM??? It was such an adventure when the claypot was brought over to our table, and when the stall server opened the lid.
Closer look sans steam. They have chicken pieces, lap cheong, veggies, fatty pork slices and bits of salted fish scattered randomly. They also give you black sauce to add as liberally as you want.
The mixed rice. Super yummy. Even better were the charred bits of rice at the sides of the claypot.
If you're after dessert, there's a famous tang yuan shop just a few feet away.
Not cheap at $2.50 a bowl, but it's enough to make you happy : )
