Zhengshishang Hunan Cuisine at 313@somerset

Meicai

Another one of those individually-portioned steamed dish spreads has opened up at the Food Republic at 313@someret at the stall in between Piao Xiang and Baguo. That pork above was a little dry, but I was still quite happy with it because of that deliciously fermented meicai that just lit everything up and helped shoved down rice. I grabbed quite a few other items (a bit too much, actually), including a tofu and pork dish, a chili pepper and egg dish, and some steamed fish, all of which went down easily. But I just love meicai and think its complex savory notes are severely underappreciated on a global stage.
