Recently there is a news article about customers ordering HK kai lan in a restaurant for over $90 which started everyone talking on social media 😂 I am glad to introduce you to the restaurant style cooking method for this "legendary" overpriced restaurant dish. Fear not, it will only cost you $1.85, sold in Singapore NTUC Fairprice supermarket.
