The nostalgic taste and unpretentious old-school Western Food is just simply the best in their sauce. Do head down to Western Barbeque if you have not tried it.
I’d say it’s also a favourite of many, judging from the popularity of the stall. The random afternoon I visited, I was one of five customers queuing at 3.30pm!

With the quality and taste, even though I'm not a fan of fishball Noodles, I would say that I'm still pretty hooked on traditional dishes like this. Needless to say, I do not mind making a return trip here.
