That certainly makes for another incentive to pay Zhen Xin another visit. But you’ll have to get there early – Ben said they usually sell out quite quickly, sometimes by 11am. “They close by 1pm but it’s still pretty crazy hours. I guess it’s really tiring to be a hawker, ready at 4am. They just do it out of passion, getting the food to people.”
There are a few things I find hard to resist not ordering whenever I see them in hawker centres, even if I was super full as I was this morn...
MAYFLOWER MARKET AND FOOD CENTRE LUNCHa little known hawker within the old estates of Ang Mo Kio.. probably only the local nearby res...
Rahim Muslim Food takes it to a whole other level with its Extra Special Mee Rebus that is packed with indulgent ingredients.
Imagine thick, chunky, peanut sauce cascading over thick, smooth sweet potato gravy, blanketing boiled yellow noodles. These were noodles that took me beyond happy to joy unlimited.
Most customers add extra chicken onto their plate, may be worth a try, but I could barely finish this. The noodles were a tad over cooked as well though.
Recommended by Johor Kaki. The Pork Leg Bi Tai Mak was really smooth, slippery and qq in a vinegary and spicy sauce, the meat topping was strong and savoury, and the trotters were tender and lightly braised. Satisfying in terms of the strong flavours.
I went with the best-selling Mushroom Minced Pork Noodles. It includes fish balls, fishcake, minced pork, and braised mushrooms.
Shu Heng Bi Tai Mak definitely has my stamp of approval! I suppose I can now be a little more patient when it comes to waiting for the time I can go back to JB again, since I can get a good bowl of Johor bi tai mak here!
Old school and good tasting, with small fresh shrimps, tender pork slices and qq fishcakes. The soup was nice and balanced – clear, sweet, slightly peppery, with the flavours of pork and prawn.
Three Sisters Prawn Noodle at Mayflower Market is unassuming. The queue is average for a good stall and the market itself is not so big.
Seek out some comfort-worthy prawn noodles and fried hokkien mee from this humble family-run stall in Ang Mo Kio! Read more.
Anticipating my enjoyment, especially since I prefer my Hokkien mee to be moist, akin to this one which, though slightly more lubricated, maintains a non-clumpy texture with a visible oil coating.
A hidden gem found in Ang Mo Kio Central! Head on down to treat yourself to a deliciously smoky plate of char kway teow. Read more.
This was a seriously greasy and smoky char kway teow, with a balanced sweet soy sauce, savoury and garlicky flavour, coupled with a very solid wok hei.
It’s no secret I miss travelling to Thailand and I believe many people right here in Singapore feel the same way too although the general co...
Overall, very shiok to eat. 😋
The real star is the texture of the trotter itself, though. The meat is barely holding together, so thoroughly braised, while skin and fat alike have an enticing wobble without any of the gumminess that often happens when skin is braised, releasing collagens.
I was all ready to blog about this particular char kway teow stall at 724 AMK Central Food Centre that I just patronized yesterday but decid...
This no-brand hokkien mee stall (which also offered carrot cake and fried oyster) was different; I was drawn to the aroma of just fried hokkien mee and decided there and then that I must have a plate! Hawker food might be affordable but it's easy to over-indulge!
One look and it already worked up my appetite! The noodles were in a darker shade without me even asking for extra sweet sauce and most importantly, it had a wet, saucy consistency. Oh la la, I can't wait to eat it!
San Lau in Chinese means 三撈 and in English means three-tossed. The food being tossed here are the Hor fun, fish slices, and bean sprouts.
Hong Kong Street Zhen Ji in Ang Mo Kio, your pocket friendly Cze Char Place.
It is definitely a good place for a family meal during the weekends and do note that reservations can be made in advance for big groups only.
Ambience at Takagi Ramen is functional casual.
If you haven’t tried Takagi Ramen, make sure you come visit when you’re in Ang Mo Kio next time and those who live in the AMK neighbourhood, you can order the ramen via honestbee food delivery service if you’re too lazy to get out of the house.
Takagi Ramen is quite good, given that they’re a hawker stall and their dishes are priced so affordably. Taste is very personal and subjective so you’ll have to try it and pass your own verdict.
面有咸辣，微香甜，淡碱古早味。调味微微的，象我小时候幼儿园旁吃的云吞面。我竟然最先把面给刻完，而没把云吞吃完。
This is the most popular stall at this little hawker centre frequented mostly by folks who live nearby.
If you decide to visit 453 AMK Wanton Mee, I would recommend giving the Prawn Dumpling Noodles a try!
The Fried Garlic Bits & Chilli with Prawn ($18) was yet another moreish dish imbued with tons of flavour. Spoon up the crispy garlic bits and relish them with the large, plump prawns dressed in a sticky, sweet sauce. If you’re a fan of garlic, these two dishes are just what you need for an incredibly satisfying meal!

Superbly long queue. The ingredients were plentiful, and the soup was flavourful and sweet enough, although the experience was marred by the alkaline taste from the noodles leaking into the broth.
The queue is long but I really don’t mind queuing for it just to get two bowls of soup ban mian and mee hoon kueh.
ancy some soupy food to kick start your day? Seletar Sheng Mian . Mian Fen Guo is one of my top choices on my breakfast list!
Being the budget diner that I am, Shanghai Renjia truly stole my heart with their affordable house-made food.
Their xiao long bao, springrolls, fried eggs and noodles are also excellent!
Xiaolongbao is by far the most famous of Shanghai’s dumplings, but shengjianbao are just as beautiful.

The Tom Yum Seafood Soup isn’t the clear type that I usually like but this is also very tasty with the fragrance of kaffir lime leaves, lemongrass and chillies really coming through.
饭比较干香, 没有那么油，但搭配酸辣够劲的辣椒非常好吃。鸡比较有嚼劲也比较有鸡鲜味，而鸡皮依然q弹滑嫩，好像果冻。我个人口味是希望饭更油，鸡更嫩，但这个鸡饭已经非常不错了。

The fishballs had a good fish flavour, some kind of savoury meaty flavour, had a good handmade texture but was yet still bouncy, and came in a slightly savoury seaweed soup. The noodles were not to my preference, although the flavour grew on me, tasting overwhelmingly of deep salty savoury soy sauce and pork oil, with some savoury minced meat, pork lard and fried shallots.
Hup Kee is opened by two brothers, originally from Ipoh but learned their culinary craft in Pahang.
There are close to 40 food items for you to pick from. Xi Xiang Feng’s bee hoon is slightly different from the bee hoon at other noodle stalls. It is thicker and firmer, which gives it a nice bite.
Xi Xiang Feng serves one of the best yong tau foo in Singapore. But, their kick ass curry laksa is what will bring me back.

Tasty, heritage food and a family that treats you like one of their own keeps customers returning again and again to Yunos N Family.
Despite having been opened for almost four decades, Yunos N Family continues to show that it is here to stay for many more years to come.
My favourite goes to the Cheesy Tater Totes ($5). The mini hash browns are crispy and fluffy inside, layered with melted cheese and mayo which gave an extra boost in flavour without being too cloying.
I thoroughly enjoyed the food by El Carbon Grill House.
This is a cheaper alternative to Collin's by a group of young and energetic chefs. They are in the midst of getting the Halal certification.
