    I do not know the name of this store, but I saw the address of a basement store when I was walking to the car park after makan. I thought it is worth recommending and I can still remember the store unit#, therefore I give it a name.

    I came to this hawker centre after buying some plastic mesh from Kelantan Road. I do not know what to eat but wanted something with low 'C'. Walking around the food centre and looking for store that has long queue. Suprisingly, there are quite a few store with long queue. One of them is turtle soup and the other is this Mei Xin Fish.

    Since Turtle soup is of High 'C', I can easily make up my mind and join in the 'Fish' queue. It is not my usual style to queue for food even if it is nice. I queue up because I find this fish soup a little unique, at least I have not seen or tried this.

    The menu is very simple. White set meal and white & black set meal. It took me sometime to digest what is white and black&white. Finally, it is referring to fish slice ( white ) or fried fish ( black ).
    White is more expensive than black & white.

    To be on the safe side, I ordered white and black - small at $4.00. The queue is quite long, about 10 person. But it moves very fast. They have 4 persons. One lady standing next to the queue to collect order and money. One lady inside arranging the food. One man inside preparing the food and another lady doing nothing at that time.

    All orders are standard. Therefore the preparation is very easy. All he has to do is to pour the soup inside the bowl. In less than 10 mins, I have my food collected.

    I look at the bowl, there is fried fish, slice steam fish and vegetable. What a good balance. The fried fish is nice and is boneless. The steam fish is nice and is fresh. The veg is normal because it is veg. The soup is tasty and the chilly is hot.

    Now I understand why additional chilli cost $0.30 and add soup cost $0.50.

    I am very satisfied with this simple hawker food. Must recommend. Of course, it would be even better if they can add fried egg. ( oops, it will increase the C then ).
