Nice Soup Gang was discovered by a family member quite a few years ago. After having dinner there for the first time, we always went back to have more especially on special occasions like CNY dinners or anyone's birthday too. My grandpa especially loves the food from this restaurant. 

Plus the staff are always very friendly with my family as we go there quite often. Also the wait-staff are incredibly efficient and not just standing around staring at you while waiting for instructions. Which I give an immediate thumbs up for that because terrible service makes for a very bad dining experience which cheapens the taste of the food.

So, recently we went back for my mother's birthday celebration and ordered a few of our favourite dishes.
Braised Sea Cucumber, Fish Maw and Belly

The first being their signature Braised Fish Maw & Belly with Sea Cucumber. Although this has never been my first dish to order, it is hard to deny that it does taste very good. They are very generous with their ingredients without overcharging us just because they can, nor are they giving us any low quality stuff. Plus the sauce is rich and flavoursome as it should be.

A definite must order at any celebrations.

For that day we also ordered the Sweet Soya Sauce Steamed Siakap. To no surprise that this dish was one of the favoured as the sauce was sweet without overpowering the freshness of the fish. The meat was succulent and tender which proves that the fish is not old or kept in the freezer before served to us. An excellent choice of order.

Also, almost all of their fishes are killed and cooked to order to ensure optimum freshness. If you are unsure then please do ask about it when you are ordering.

One of my absolute favourite of the night was the Herbal Steamed Kampung Chicken. Almost immediately everyone at the table could smell the herbs that were used to make this dish and the flavour was pungent even in the sauce. Every spoonful of sauce felt like I was drinking some really strong herbal soup which was excellent. 

We asked for Kampung Chicken as we preferred the texture but I presume that this would be good even with the regular chicken. However it may not be as chewy and succulent as the kampung ones.

For vegetable, we ordered the XO Sauce Stir-Fried Long Bean with Pacific Clams. To be honest I wasn't expecting too much with this dish but chose it just because I like long beans.

But this was amazing! Literally one of the best stir-fried vegetables that I have ever had and I think it is because of the XO sauce which is Nice Soup Gang's signature secret recipe. Very very good and would definitely order three plates the next time we are there.

Last but not least is the restaurant's famous dish which is XO Sauce Fried Rice with Seafood. The sauce used to cook this is the same as the one used with the vegetables so it's no surprise that this is absolutely delicious also.

The rice is incredibly fluffy and fragrant cause of the XO sauce plus the 'wok-hei'. This is the one rice dish where I can go back for seconds and also thirds without caring about the carbs. Plus they add little scallops and prawns which are incredibly juicy too so every mouthful is a burst of flavours.

It's no wonder why we always return to this place for a meal because we are never ever disappointed whenever we are there.
