I am not gonna lie but the reason why I went to try out this Blanco Court Fresh Fish Soup is due to its pretty bowls which I see on almost every other table.

It seems like a hot favourite for the hikers who have finished their workout at the nearby Bukit Timah Nature Reserve.

This fish soup stall at Beauty World Food Centre serves fried fish head soup, sliced fish soup, fried fish soup, seafood soup and tom yum soup with either rice, thin bee hoon or thick bee hoon. You can request for more rice, bee hoon and evaporated milk at no additional charge.

I ordered the sliced fish soup with thick bee hoon but opted not to have evaporated milk added as I feel it interfered with the flavors of the broth.

I did not ask for more noodle but the portion seems quite adequate.

Apart from the sliced fish and noodle, there are leaves of lettuce and two pieces of fried sole fish as well.

I did not really count but there are five or seven slices of fresh batang fish slices. The texture of the meaty fish meat is sweet and tender.

I had a sip of the broth and I am blown away by the complex flavors. In addition to the sweetness of the broth, there is the savoriness from the tung choi (Tianjin preserved vegetable) and umaminess from the fried sole fish.

This is quite a tasty bowl of fish soup although some may find it a tad too salty.
