Hook On Heads

A few weeks back, my SIL asked her bf to help make me a night guard. And he didn't want to accept any payment. Thanks guys....

So in return, my hubby and I decided we should at least take them out for dinner. They suggested Peranakan food. After some googling and searches, we decided on Hooked on Heads. The reviews seemed good. To find out more, go to their website, http://www.hookedonheads.com/.

By the time we got there, it was pretty late. I recalled it being later than 8.30 pm.

We ordered the a full fish head curry but it turned out pretty small. I'm not sure if it was because we were rather late, thus only small pieces were left but we weren't happy with the portion.


Next was the Crispy Home Made Tofu. This dish tasted great. If you like crispy tofu, you should definitely try this.

After reading all about their prawn paste chicken, we decided to try it. Maybe our expectations were too high, but it was only okay to us. But it got better as the dish cooled down.


Wanting to try a dish closer to the Peranakan/Nyonya style of cooking, we ordered the Mixed Assorted Vege, or 'Chap Chai'. Unfortunately it was sold out so we went with Kang Kong cooked with Garlic. It tasted like the standard dish.

Since we weren't that full, we moved on to dessert. The Chendol dissapointed us. The Thai style Boh Boh Cha Cha was pretty ordinary. But the Thai Tapioca was good.

The restaurant layout was spacious and the pricing was reasonable.
