Tasty Hakka Abacus Seeds, Healthy Thunder Tea Rice By Mother & Son Team
The pandemic and a battle with cancer caused the matriarch to close her organic food restaurant last year. Her Hakka dishes are now offered via a cloud kitchen in Tampines.
If mum’s idea of a good Mother’s Day brunch is wholesome thunder tea rice, abacus seeds and mushroom chee cheong fun instead of pancakes and bacon, read on.
Thunder Palace offers hearty, nutrient-dense Hakka cuisine. The recipes are courtesy of Wong Thai Thai, 72, and her son, Seow Yu Chang, 46. The brand operates out of a cloud kitchen in Tampines. Before starting Thunder Palace, both mother and son were seasoned restaurateurs: the Hakka matriarch founded Ci Yan Organic Health Food Restaurant on Smith Street in 1996, while Yu Chang started his own vegetarian-friendly outfit Art of Dao two decades later in Ang Mo Kio.
