Rong Guang BBQ Seafood

This is a place we usually think about going to if we have lots of time to kill. First, looking for a parking lot is challenging, and second, there's always a long queue. Rong Guang BBQ has another branch at the junction of Holland and Clementi Roads (just next to Pine Grove), but for some reason it's never appealed to me. I've always enjoyed the Alexandra Village outlet in the hawker centre a lot more.

Hot steaming rice is the stuff dreams are made of

Grilled squid with sambal. Pretty good, but not as good as....
The sambal stingray is something I can dream about eating everyday. The stingray is ordinary, but the sambal is out of this world. It's just the right mix of sweetness and spice. It's not too oily, and I could go on dousing my rice with it without the need for fish.
The total bill, including a serve of veg, came up to about $24, which we felt was good value.
If you're still hungry, make sure you try the durian milkshake at the fruit juice stall to the right of Rong Guang. It's absolutely heavenly : )

  1. Durian milkshake? *cry* I dare not even mention "sambal stingray" to Dan. He'll go berserk. We had BK dbl cheeseburgers twice today - cos we already had Denny's last night, Macs yesterday, Subway the day before, Dan's sworn off KFC, Taco Bell sucks and we cldn't find any pizza. We can't wait to hit the hawker centres back home. I'm going to plan our meals using your blog as a reference.
