Decided to branch out and try out Nyonya cuisine at Bibi & Baba, conveniently located at Wan Chai. Pic 1️⃣: Bibi & Baba’s Special Prawn Mee - $102 hkd 🍜 — A beautiful array of colours, flavours and textures in this bowl. Loved the combination of vermicelli and yellow noodles to give the dish a different dimension. Soup was very flavourful, and had a rich prawn taste to it, slightly spicy but definitely bearable. Could’ve been a bit more generous with the prawns, as they were served sliced in half

Pic 2️⃣: Hainanese Chicken (Half) - $178 hkd 🐔
— My favourite of the night! Chicken was super tender and moist, very well seasoned and flavourful. The dipping sauces that came with it were also delicious, and accompanied the chicken well.
Pic 3️⃣: Kueh Pie Tee - $78 hkd
— Super cute outlook! Had a nice crunch to it but wasn’t that flavourful. Most of the taste came from the coriander on top.
Pic 4️⃣: Vegetarian Fried Popiah - $78 hkd
— Slightly oily for me. The filling was nicely seasoned, but the spring roll was not as light and crispy as I hoped it would be.
Pic 5️⃣: Timun Sambal Salad - $68 hkd 🥗
— Loved this! Super appetising and addicting!! I couldn’t stop eating this despite the spice. The dried shrimp sambal was so flavourful and fragrant. Steer away from this if you can’t handle spice! 🌶
Pic 6️⃣: Vegetarian Nonya Chap Chye - $78 hkd 🥬
— Vegetables were cooked nicely and the dish was seasoned well. Small portion size and there were barely any glass noodles.
Pic 7️⃣: Ayam Goreng Istimewa - $128 hkd
— Expected more from this. Chicken was slightly dry and lacked flavour. Most of the flavour came from the crispy blue ginger.
Pic 8️⃣: Kueh Platter - $58 hkd
— Everything on this platter was super sweet! I didn't really enjoy the textures of some of the things on here 😂
Pic 9️⃣: Chendol - $58 hkd
— Overly sweet. Loved the creaminess from the coconut cream and chewiness of the mung bean jelly.
Pic 🔟: Cha Siu Man IPA (Lemon Ice Tea IPA) - $68 hkd 🍺
— An interesting beer. Really tasted like iced lemon tea which I enjoyed!
