This restaurant is the new kid on the block along MacPherson Road, joining SWA Gardens, and Meng Kee Seafood Restaurant. These three restaurants are the Chinese cuisine restaurants I have patronized.
Wo Peng Restaurant is owned by the chef, Julian Tam, who was formerly a chef in Furama Hotel. Originally from Hong Kong, Mr. Tam migrated to Toronto, Canada, where he was the chef in a small restaurant in the city. He later came to Singapore and worked for Furama Hotel, before deciding to set up his own restaurant. Being the owner/chef, Mr. Tam make it a point to gather feedback from his customers about the quality of his creation and the taste.
Below are images of the restaurant menu, and sample list of the dishes available in the menu.
His specialty is Pung Choy, which is a dish make famous in China. It seem that when the Emperor visited the south during his incognito tour of the region, the people of this particular village was unable to offer any special food to the emperor. So, each family contribute whatever they can afford and the food was then cooked in a basin (Pung - Cantonese for basin).
