Jin Hua Fish Head Bee Hoon 金华鱼头米粉 located at Maxwell Food Centre, specialises in serving Cantonese style fish soup. I have read many positive reviews on this stall and was looking forward to trying it for myself.
Despite being there on a weekday evening (615pm) for dinner, there was a long queue of more than 10 people. This is one of the only two stall with such a long queue. The other stall with a similar long queue is none other than Lao Ban Soya Beancurd.

After queuing for half an hour then was I able to order and receive my food. The reason for the long queue? Well, there is only 1 person cooking and he is cooking only 2 bowls at any one time.

The Sliced Fish Bee Hoon was filled with ingredients such as bee hoon, fish slices, vegetables and fried shallots in a milky broth. The broth was tasty and flavourful. The sesame oil added on top further enhance the flavour of the broth.

As for the fish slices, they were sliced way too thinly. It was hard to get a good satisfactory bite of the fish. The fish texture was rough and tasted bland. Disappointing.
Even after we have finish our meal, there was still a long queue at the stall.I doubt I will be going back any time soon with or without a queue as the fish was disappointing.
