Besides Soon Heng, there are more Chinese restaurants in Singapore known with the fish head cooking. One is Xin Yuan Ji, Tan Quee Lan Street, approximately behind Bugis Junction. The diner is always crowded presents the curry fish head fish head and Nonya cooking.

Even pieces of neither fried fish heads, nor visible oil puddle in the clear broth. When you desire an intense sense of dressing, living adds sliced chili sauce and soy sauce are available. The waiter made a slip of paper where the bones of a magazine that folded to form a square container. Elegant approach to bone the fish head is not dropping slob at the table. Understandably, people in Singapore and Hong Kong do have a habit of throwing the bones scattered on the table.
Xin Ji Yuan is similar to a popular dish in Penang. The price is cheaper; the head of the fish were more bones than flesh. The difference is Xin Yuan Ji had two versions of the fish head noodles, which are: coconut milk with or without coconut milk.
If you do not like to eat bony fish heads, there are also available fried rice noodles with fish fillet without bones or thorns.

Saigon Cuisine
Down the road along the streets of Ho Chi Minh City – a replacement of the city which was originally named Saigon – we seemed to realize that half the population of this town his job cooking and selling food, while the other half is the consumer.
Such traits also appeared in Bangkok and in several Indonesian cities. Selling food is a kind of business it seems that most people first think of any Asian. You see, everyone must eat, right?
However, traders class food vendors in Saigon and Bangkok so much more variety and types compared with what we see in Indonesia. In Indonesia, we often see a road filled with boiled and roasted corn sellers – all the same and rows. Or along the street all selling fried bananas.
In the cities of Thailand and Vietnam, the trafficker is smarter to understand diversity. In one short segment near Ben Thanh Market, for example, we easily find dozens of different types of food, seller fruit slices, corn on the cob, Carrot Cake, noodle soup, roasted corn, or baguette (French bread) with various contents (shrimp, beef, roast duck, etc.).
