Atonchia Supersonic March 13, 2011 Share March 13, 2011 (edited) Have been eating fish for years, but can never really recall taste and texture between the Soon Hock & Garoupa. Prefer steam fish now as it's a healthier option. Edited March 13, 2011 by Atonchia ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Bear Turbocharged March 13, 2011 Share March 13, 2011 Alot depends on the freshness of the fish, steaming time and sauce used. The ones you mentioned are all good. There are a few others that are not so popular but quite as good for steaming, if done correctly. This shop does steam fish in the afternoon quite well and offers a variety of different fishes at reasonable price. You might be interested: Block 253, Jurong East Street 24 #01-205 Singapore 600253.

Unclelum Neutral Newbie March 13, 2011 Share March 13, 2011 Always remember to use a metal plate when steaming! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladykillerz 4th Gear March 13, 2011 Share March 13, 2011 depends a lot on the freshness and how the chef cook. usually Sea bass and Promfet are better in steam. Soon Hock is best for both steam or fry. Garoupa is better in fry. just my 2cents. =p Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelpie 2nd Gear March 13, 2011 Share March 13, 2011 fish oil damm healthy one... patin is a good fish! It looks simply to do it but when my maid attempt the last time, it was a complete failure . The muddy smell is just too strong to convince me to eat. But she does much better with the more common ones like Pomfret. Do you know how to cook nice Patin with Chay poh?
