Wah Kee Wanton Noodles is one of the popular stall in Bendemeer Hawker & Food Center. Try out the Char Siew yourself.
Recently we learnt from social media that this stall in Bendemeer Market & Food Centre makes Soon Kueh on the spot and we decided to check the Kuehs out.
What to eat in Bendemeer Market & Food Centre with $2? Perhaps you can give this a try!
Would love to be back soon! Maybe with one basket of otah and another basket of curry siew mai. And maybe more deep fried items. Plus, of course, the yummy lava buns!
I like what I had; consistency was smooth although flavor was on the bland side. What I enjoyed most was that there were plenty of ingredients inside, and the generous amount of century eggs definitely enhanced the flavor of the congee! Only thing I regretted, not adding an egg!

The hotel was re-opened in 2012 with a re-design done by Tiah Nan Chyuan and his team from local design firm, FARM.
We are not a big fan of the decor and atmosphere of Enjoy Eating House and Bar @ Jalan Besar. However, the food we tried were enjoyable. The menu is fairly extensive and prices are reasonable.
Overall, good prices for these bar food and efficiently prompt delivery service.
Their food ordering system felt out of place. There was no physical menu and we were asked to browse what they had via their website.
An absolute cannot-miss, the Signature Char Siew ($18 for 300gm) was decadent, sinful, and all kinds of delicious. Sticky, luscious, melty, it was redolent of honeyed nuance and smoky char.
The restaurant also carries a respectable range of ciders and ales for diners to complement their meal with.
If I do go back, I would just go for the Mushroom Bak Chor Mee which is supposedly their signature.
A stall that caught my eyes is Toa Payoh 93 Soon Kueh with their handmade traditional kueh.
The roast duck has a crispy skin, with firm meat but may be slightly dry in my opinion.
Definitely worth many return visits despite its location.
When it’s good, they are the best sio bak in Singapore, and perhaps the best char siew. But when it’s bad, it’s disappointing.
Michelle pledged to drive over with more makan kaki when she returns from her Scandinavian tour. Driving, feasting and feeding her wanderlust – the line between work and play is enviably fuzzy for her. I remarked to Michelle that her passions have truly taken her the delicious distance.
A decent plate of Malaysian-style Nasi Lemak to try in McNair Road within a modern looking coffeeshop. It is more expensive than what you get at hawker centres, but it makes up for its finer presentation and portion. You also get to try old school flavour laksa from Laksa Labo within the same coffeeshop.
The ayam berempah quite fragrant, tender inside and crispy outside, but the leg was slightly unmeaty and pink. The rice was lightly fragrant of coconut and pandan, fluffy and moist, and the sambal was really spicy and had a real kick. The eggs, ikan bilis and nuts was average. Overall above average, but I won’t crave it.
It is an old hardware store converted into a cafe. They also have a workshop/shop on the second floor that sells handmade stuff. They are super famous so be sure to come early or avoid lunch hours as it is crowded. The Nearest MRT station is Bendemeer MRT Station.
Overall, the food was tasty and with such a rustic environment, it's hard not to come back again.
Chye Seng Huat Hardware (or CSHH) is coffee roaster Papa Palheta’s flagship store.
I definitely enjoyed the meal although both the Greatest Kon and Alex were less impressed. For me, I believe this kind of food would appeal to my mom, who is a fish lover!

The kueh lapis sagu had a very restrained and balanced sweetness, as well as a refined coconut milk fragrance. The lemper ayam was very nice, having a very wholesome savouriness with perfectly sticky and savoury glutinous rice and chicken. Takeaway only.
Great place to find some authentic Indonesian kuehs and dishes made with a lot of passion!
Makan House by Ollella is a good hangout with good espresso coffee and authentic Indonesian fare.
At least the dumpling was decent, big in size and had a crunchy bite. The star of the dish was really the noodles with the special sauce. Not too sure that it is worth the $5 price tag.
The dumplings, I must admit is one of the best I have had with any Wanton Mee.
A resounding yes. Some may dispute if it is worthy of the long wait, but at least for me, the wanton noodles is a taste I am fond of.
For someone who is not a Ban Mian eater, I am genuinely impressed by the delicious Ban Mian at Hui Wei Chilli Ban Mian. Head here for your Ban Mian craving, no regrets!
The Mee Hoon Kueh is, dare I say, one of my favourites in Singapore. I would recommend ordering their dry noodles, just so you can try their famous chilli.
A Chinese chap chye (羅漢齋) that was super light on fermented tofu, and bok choy, plus a small plate of steamed minced meat with salted fish made it a filling meal.
I would recommend here for a bowl of homely and comforting Pig’s Organ Soup 猪什汤 in Singapore. It is best to have it during rainy days too. They are on online delivery platform as well.
Red Eye Smokehouse Singapore Review with pictures of menu : American BBQ & Smoked Meats, USDA beef ribs, Iberia pork, smoke chicken ...
Red Eye Smokehouse is probably the best among the three American-style BBQ restaurants in Singapore.
Buns and pickles are served on request with no additional charge. I'm pretty sure I'd like to drop by again sometime.
88 Hong Kong Roast Meat Specialist Lavender Street Review with pictures of menu with prices char siew, roast pork, roast duck, noodles ...
A mixed bag on the Char Siew, but the Siew Yoke is a must though!
Let’s just say 88 Hong Kong Roast Meat Specialist is worth trying without the horrendous queue and if you happen to be in the vicinity. Overall, I still prefer Roast Paradise for a similar comparison.
Lavender Food Square was one of my favorite makan places before it was demolished to make way for the 16-storey ARC 380 commercial building.
My dining companion said, "I prefer the Hokkien Fried Dai Loke Mee to Yu Kong Hor."
The Moonlight hor fun was served with a raw egg on top, tossed in a black savory sauce, and pork lard.
Not bad, but not terribly memorable and a bit too heavy with the thicker skin all throughout.
Apart from their specialty fried Teochew kuehs, people also return for their classic black and white carrot cake, starting from $2.50.
Yong Xiang Carrot Cake is one of at least three fried carrot cake stalls at Bendemeer Food Centre.
Nice and minimalist decor, with a not bad Mentaiko Shrimp Burger, serving up a chunky, prawny and springy patty, and a thick layer of rich mentaiko. Latte’s good too, smooth and slightly woody.

Lucid – Coffee at Hamilton Road Lavender
Lucid is a bright contemporary cafe that can be a haven for those who want some peace and quiet. It is a great place for good coffee.
I will definitely be back to try more of their bakes too!
Food at Creamery Boutique Ice Creams is all about desserts, a blend of Western and Asian flavours, focusing on artisanal small batch ice cream and home made cookies.
Prices are comparable to other dessert parlours, budget about SGD $10 per person.
All in all, with it's contender KOOKS Creamery that has been around for some time, Creamery Boutique is in a fierce competition.
