Northpoint shopping centre wasn’t that huge of a mall when it opened for business in the 1990s but after going through two major expansions...
It didn't stop me from ordering the same pork lard rice with fried egg the next day too! I commented to Alex that should it be my last day alive, this unassuming pork lard rice would be amongst the dishes I would love to eat before I die.
Though such an item is special, if you were to ask me if I will purposely make a special trip down again for it, I would most answer probably not as the queue had somehow horrified me.
Steamed Whole White Eel with Black Garlic Sauce is so soft, tender and the black garlic sauce is so flavoursome that some of my dining partners are literally licking the plate clean.
For the longest time ever, I remember that the only hawker food sold at Guan Heng Cooked Food is the Singapore style carrot cake but that’s ...
Having to endure a craving can be such a frustrating chore! My simple mind was hankering for a bowl of dry prawn noodle one Thursday afterno...
You are enjoying a roaring business only because of your customers' support so treat them right. I reiterate: I am not asking for five stars service at a coffee shop, all I am asking for is mutual respect.
I am not expecting five stars service at a coffee shop but I am sure nobody appreciates being yelled at for no apparent reason especially while paying for said service.
Besides the tom yum noodles, I do see myself coming back to have another bowl or even head to the outlet at Bukit Panjang!
I had a hard time finishing the broth given how porky tasting it was. Nonetheless, it's really a steal for S$7.90 and should the ramen craving strike again, i would likely go with the chef recommended tonkotsu gyokai ramen which is a mix of fish and pork broth.
Suparakki Ramen is cheap and accessible.
Though the seating area may get a bit cramped, we definitely wouldn’t mind coming back for such affordable and delectable ramen bowls.
We always see crowds at Sanook Kitchen and this time we went in. It’s a chain that has started to spring up in many malls.
Okay if there’s one thing that may not be recommended, it’s this Seafood Fried Rice with Shrimp Paste. The rice is fragrant and tasty with the shrimp paste, but it kinda felt rather ”empty” as there were but a few shreds of egg and a couple of prawns.
Only the tom yum fried rice is good. Flavourful with a nice wok hei. Well balanced of spiciness and sourness without being too heavy on one side.
Chong Pang Nasi Lemak should be a well-known nasi lemak in Yishun, especially for those deployed to Chong Pang camp.
It's a dilemma for me; to finish the chilli, i need rice but i am not going to have so much rice so late at night! p.s. the coconut milk rice was quite good but to me, my favourite is still Star Hup Lee Nasi Lemak in Yishun!
I like the kampung ambiance at Chong Pang nasi lemak.
This fairly known laksa stall offered the mild curry type of laksa. The laksa was thick and flavourful, yet not overly rich. The gravy was balanced with just the right levels of heat and lemak, and was light enough that I slurped up all the gravy. The unique crab stick added a nice sweetness. Very nice.
There is always a long queue at the stall, so be prepared to queue up for more than 20 minutes if you want to savour the delicious bowl of laksa.
I finished the whole bowl of laksa to the last drop, though I forgot to take a photo of the empty bowl to prove it 😂
Fried chicken wing is one of my favorite ingredients to have in nasi lemak but sadly, the one I had is scrawny and the texture on the drier side. The only consolation is the crispy batter that goes crunch with every bite.
This has got to be the cheapest epok epok I have ever bought considering the size is quite a decent one.
Residents in Yishun should be familiar with Pak Mandor Nasi Lemak at Yishun Street 61. Not only is the nasi lemak popular in the neighbourhood, it is also delicious and value for money.
Following the huge reception of YUN NANS Stonepot Fish that drew long queues and high traffic across Singapore, the restaurant is launching a new culinary sensation inspired by the brand’s signature steam pot chicken soup. Introducing its latest addition to the menu: the rich and creamy Stonepot Chicken Soup with Pig’s Stomach (Regular: $39.80; Large: $68.80) using a premium breed of chicken.
Press Release, SgFood, yun nans, chinese new year 2023
Quite an interesting concept which is similar to steamboat, just that it is over the built-in stone pot at each table in Yun Nans Stonepot Fish. The fish is definitely the highlight for me, and there is a good variety of side dishes to complement the fish. Worth a try if you have the time to queue (or try reserving a table online) and if you are in the area.
Service here is not the friendliest, but I can see why they do have a steady stream of customers. The cozy and tranquil space makes it a great place to catchup, get some work done, or to simply just chill.
What attracted me to this cafe is that it is an open concept and you can have a waterfront view of Yishun pond park. Slow bakes cafe bakery is located at Tzu Chi Humanistic Youth Centre.
Also, with an additional $4 top-up, you can get their Breakfast Set, with your choice of toast, two soft boiled eggs, and a drink.
Really nice deep fried taro dumpling, shatteringly crispy and crackling outside, yammy and soft inside with a nicely marinated fried shrimp, mushroom and chicken meat filling. Everything else looks nice too – worth a try again for their other offerings.
In a nutshell, there were some misses but the prices shall be the main motivation factor as I only paid about S$42, plus the fact I am literally just minutes' away from home. I would know what to avoid in my next visit; definitely no har gow. And the twin brothers should consider improving their ordering system!
A pair of twin brothers quit their dim sum chef job to serve handmade dim sum in Yishun kopitiam. Must try their BBQ Pork Bun!
Nasi Padang is like the Malay equivalence for the Chinese mixed vegetables rice and nasi ambeng, with origins from Indonesia, is similar but...
Food at Coba Coba is halal-certified Indonesian cuisine, focused on Nasi Padang or Nasi Ambeng. With a selection of over 15 dishes that change daily, there's sufficient reason for repeat visits.
Prices are comparable to other such stalls, budget about SGD $11 per person for a meal here.
Nonetheless, in this neighbourhood, Heng Hua Restaurant still deserves a talk as their menu is rather extensive with a good list of Authentic Heng Hua dishes we can hardly find here.
The eatery gets pretty packed during the weekends and we highly recommend calling in for reservations. Nevertheless, service here is very efficient so you will never have to wait that long for a table.
And best of all, dessert lovers no longer need to feel guilty about indulging. Not with Bob The Baker Boy’s healthier offerings to the rescue!
grab yourselves some molten lava cookies; we promise you won’t regret it.
Northpoint Mall can be a daunting place to be. So many places inside and you can get lost. But, managed to find Feng Food, a small casual Taiwanese place.
One reservation we do have is that we wish the prices would be a bit cheaper, especially considering that this isn’t a full-fledged restaurant.
Seoul Kitchen is the other Korean BBQ joint on Sembawang Road which are opposite of each other. I tried the other one before and now it was time for this one.
A good place for group gatherings, Seoul Chicken definitely has the vibe of a friendly Korean restaurant for the after-work chill and is probably one of the better options amongst only a small handful of Korean restaurants in the north of the island for now.
I guess many people visit Monster Curry for the gigantic plates of Japanese curry rice and although they continue to be a draw for me; i am honestly more infatuated with their honey toasts!
Almost all cleaned up! Next time, i think it would be safer for me to go with their jumbo ebi curry!
It tasted more like your usual nabe rather than the bean-heavy taste of a savory doujiang, especially since this was much saltier. But you could still taste the beans when sipping it. I don't think I'll order it again, but I'm glad that I tried it.
Would i be back again? Oh well, i would need to spend my S$77 worth of vouchers. And it does seem like my parents did enjoy their mix mabushi teishoku.
Good Value, Satisfying Meal
My firs time having the Conveyor Belt Buffet Hotepot for lunch and then it also comes with free flow Xiao Long Bao at Yi Qian Ling Yi Ye Restaurant (一千零一夜自助火锅店) Northpoint City So Shiok!!!
For that, along with their friendly staff members, I would come back even if the ingredients were nothing to rave about.
