I had dined at Loy Sum Juan Restaurant @ Tiong Bahru Plaza, and found the food was good and price was very reasonable few years ago. Recently, it was featured in Channel 8 food programme "Dialect Delight" , as such it reminded me the exist of the restaurant thatme drooled and craved to eat here again. Sad to reveal that my gastronomic experience tonight was far below average. We had Custard Prawn at $12 for 5 small to middle size shrimps, Coffee spare ribs at $10 for 6 pathetic spar ribs which barely had any meat that meant for soup. Beancurb spinach at $10 for spinach with mushroom and 4 slices of deep fried tou fu. The shrimps and ribs were coated with oil, greasy, overcooked ribs coated by honey taste bitter. The prices are pricey for the portion and food quality .With this standard and quality , I find Ch 8 dubious to recommend this restaurant in the programme. I am afraid this restaurant is in my blacklisted list henceforth.
