Wolf Bargain(WXXB)

-

Lone Wolf Investor is at 29 Tai Tiong Crescent. I am at Lao Zhong Zhong eating house for the Hgoh Hiang Wu Xiang Xia Bing(wxxb) by Lao Zhong Zhong(Quite a mouthful to say). WXXB laterally mean Five Spice Prawn Fritter. Wu Xiang is a meat roll marinated with five spice wrap in beancurd skin with finely diced chestnut to give it some texture. Prawn fritter is the thicker version of a prawn cracker. 

(Sample size amounting to $4.60)


Lao Zhong Zhong Wu Xiang is very well known in that area. I am not too sure if they have any link with Zhong Zhong Wu Xiang Xia Bing at Bt. Timah hawker centre. I guess by having the word Lao in front mean they are the more established authority and the cream de la creme of Five Spice Prawn Fritter. It sure didn’t disappoint. The taste is sublime, the chili dip is slightly on the sweet side, moderately hot. The chili dip has a sprinkle of peanut powder which give it a slightly thicker sauce. It goes very well with the food. The fritter is crispy. Tiny prawns on the fritter are fried till bone dry even the shell of the prawn can be consumed, giving off a satisfying crunch. Wu Xiang is freshly made with a good mix of meat and chestnut. The meat roll is airy. The taste is balance. Doesn’t taste artificial or overly seasoned. Even though all the items are deep fried, I didn’t suffer from heart attack. There is no oily aftertaste. 

(Chestnut cake)


(Deep fried Tau Kwa,good colour good taste)

There is always a queue at any hour of the day. Just look at the photo. Has to be the longest queue for my WXXB fix. One of the other highlight has to be the chestnut cake which had become a rare item on the menu. The process of making the chestnut cake is tedious which explains why few shops sell that item now.  I had a piece of deep fried beancurd aka tau kwa and a couple of fish balls. I wish I had more stomach but it was my impromptu snack right after lunch. I just can’t resist a munch. Other items on sale included guan chang(red Chinese sausage) and pi dan(century eggs) is an acquired taste which taste like Foie Gras for lack of a comparable description. My food cost $4.60. Lao Zhong Zhong is definitely worthy of the wait. I am suggesting having it piping hot at the coffee shop after HA 2.0. I am sure you will be laughing away once you try the food. Btw they don’t sell satay. Safety assured.  😁

  (Image credit The Star Media) (Swamp of people going into Shenzhen) Bye Singapore! Hi Malaysia, 2026 This write-up was inspired by a video posted on YouTube. The video talks about Hong Kong hollowing out by Shenzhen. The recent phenomenon of Hong Kongers going to Shenzhen to play, eat and stay is gathering pace with close to 2 millions making the crossing to Shenzhen during the recent Easter Holiday. That is close to 30% of the current HK population leaving for Shenzhen. With deflation taking root in China, things are much cheaper in Shenzhen. The poor economy in HK is another push factor with Hong Kongers trading down their consumption. One traveller from HK mentions his spending in the mainland only cost him 1/3 of the usual price he paid in Hong Kong. Hong Kongers are shopping at Sam’s Club in Shenzhen buying everything from groceries to electronics. The commentator interviewed restaurants and shop owners in HK, most experienced a 30% drop in sales during the holiday.  *The video

  (Credit: Yahoo Finance; Last index high of 3900 in 2007, 16 years and counting. Lost decade of Singapore Market) I spent two nights thinking about this write up since it is a subject close to my heart. The passion and concern I had for our stock market are real. I hope SGX can see my commentary in a positive light. It is about solving problem that matters, no witch-hunting was intended. During my last monthly update. I am critical about SGX for not doing enough to promote the vibrancy of our stock market. After the blog, I have been getting more SGX senior executives looking at my LinkedIn profile. I hope people at SGX can see it as constructive criticism. I want to make my point of view clear before anyone get an impression that I am grinding my axe on our stock market. I love Singapore market, I am also a bull on Singaporean companies. How could I not love our stock market where I allocate most of my investment? The declining interest in our stock market did not happen overnight, i

Without knowing a word of French or local culture, she embarked on a difficult journey of communicating with her colleagues and clients, in which it resulted in miscommunication and her being the butt of the joke. Emily assumed everyone in Paris could or wanted to communicate in English. She was forced to learn the language in class so as to communicate well with her colleagues and clients. It is important to understand the language of choice in the area one operates so as to be able to communicate effectively i
