While it's not at the top of the list, Yi Jia is still a reliable choice for good fish soup. Each bowl came with about seven slices of fresh and evenly cut mackerel. The stock was sufficiently tasty, due to the addition of dried plaice during the cooking process.

What's interesting here was the use of garland chrysanthemum leaves (tang oh) instead of the more commonly used lettuce. Its distinctive flavour gave it a unique edge to the overall taste, but some people might not like its pungency. If you like a wide choice of condiments, there's plenty to choose from. Besides the standard fresh red chilli and soy sauce, there's also minced garlic, pickled ginger, and bean paste (taucheo).
