I would definitely return for their shrimp wontons, and I wish they sold frozen ones so I could have them whenever I like.
Although this stall specializes in soya sauce chicken, it is their sui kow and soup that impresses me more.
I enjoyed the Shrimp Dumpling though.
Also, I like my Laksa fiery spicy but, despite adding the sambal chilli provided, I still find the spiciness too mild for me.
Depot Road claypot laksa is nice as it has its own unique style and sweet tasting profile. It's a mild, friendly laksa, especially good for introducing the dish to the uninitiated. I would have it again, if I am in the area.
I liked it so much that I nearly went back for a second bowl before realizing that that would be too much coconut milk in one day.
Known for their rich flavor given the high salinity of the Red Sea, the red prawns exhibited fresh crunchiness with a deep, endearing sweetness. p.s. I always eat prawns with their shells as I am lazy to peel them and it's extra calcium for the body.
The prawns, while sweet, were a bit tough. The noodles were the sticky type, and the broth had a good seafood flavour, but the alkaline taste in the noodles overwhelmed the prawn broth flavour. A bit middling for me. 不会想念.
Alexandra Village Food Centre welcomes Chef Goo, a seafood-centric stall that offers Hokkien mee and crab meat fried rice! Read more.
MARCH 3, 2020 Recommended by Miss Tam Chiak. I’m not sure how I never noticed this stall with its seriously close to half an hour queue. Solid and deliberate slicing skills (刀工). Very nicely …
I am probably still too young to talk about nostalgia but our meal at New Market Teochew Braised Duck Rice was so satisfying!
My order came with a bowl of rice drenched with their lor and a portion of braised duck meat served separately on another plate with cucumber slices underneath.
With no dine-in allowed for the next few weeks, no thanks to the enhanced measures for Phase 2 (Heightened Alert); I was wondering where I s...
Remember to drop by to give their muffins a try the next time you are around Alexandra!
This seemingly run-of-the-mill bakery in Alexandra Village Food Centre is a wildcard in a food centre that’s famous for their avocado drinks and delectable local food.
I decided to give them another try. I don't think my opinion of them has changed.
My plate of char siew and roasted pork rice comes with an hard-boiled egg and bowl of cabbage soup. Portion wise, it is rather filling for me and I wasn't expecting an egg to be included so I would say $4 for this meal is quite worth it.
It is almost a role reversal! The Pork Belly is firm and tender with a good bite.
Probably the Best Avocado Drink in Singapore. I'm still loving its rich and creamy consistent smooth drink without being too sweet. The fragrant and pleasant taste of Gulu Melaka within adds depth and flavour to the drink.
Lye Bo might not offer an extensive menu, but it more than makes up for it with its focus on quality. Their selection of tossed noodles is deliberately concise, featuring only three straightforward options.
The skin is thicker than what I used to remember, but I am not complaining because it is so hard to find this taste of effort and nostalgia.
It is rare to find hawkers who approach their craft with such an artisan spirit these days.
Old school stall recommended by EatBook.Ah. The soon kueh or bamboo shoot kueh had nice crisp and lightly savoury fillings and was refreshing, with a good bite. The yam ang ku kueh was not bad in terms of uniqueness although normal in term of taste and texture.
Besides the claypot chicken rice, the stall also sells several soup dishes to go along with the rice.
I have to say that I was absolutely impressed by the remarkable food that the 28-year-old chef is churning out.
Their menu is kept simple, there are prawn noodle and pork ribs noodles at $3.50 each, for dry and for soup version. There is also an option to have both the prawns and pork ribs at $5 per portion.
It was my first visit to Soon Lee, but it certainly won’t be my last.
Keng Eng Kee opened a new outlet in 2022 at SAFRA Tampines. With the restaurant in the East and the zi char restaurants in West Singapore, they have the whole Singapore covered.
Keng Eng Kee (KEK) Seafood is considered one of the best in Singapore, and for my son’s birthday we went here.
We enjoyed the Samsui chicken at Keng Eng Kee. Tender juicy sweet poached free range chicken eaten with mild grated ginger wrapped in crunchy lettuce.
In Singapore, Fatty Cheong at ABC Market is synonymous with "bu jian tian" 不见天 char siew to go with their egg noodles or plain rice.
There are 2 stalls by the same name in this food centre by the same owner, the original stall is to focus on roasted meat and the newer stal...
The char siew was nice.
Poh Cheu Ang Ku Kueh and Soon Kueh review. Traditional shop at Alexandra Village, Jalan Bukit Merah near Ikea Singapore
Ang Ku Kueh is a traditional Chinese cake made to look like a tortoise shell; hence the name that translates to red tortoise cake, although ...
Everything at Poh Cheu Soon Kueh And Ang Ku Kueh is still made from scratch daily by the family, so you can be assured of the quality control here.
Canopy HortPark ia an all-day dining restaurant surrounded by lush greenery - for brunch, pastas, burgers as well as mains like Angus Ribeye
The food at Canopy HortPark is not particularly outstanding, with improvements needed in some dishes such as the Dry-Aged Beef Burger.
If you love dining in Singapore’s parks and gardens, or love being in lush green spaces, you will love the recently opened Canopy Garden Dining at HortPark. This is Canopy’s 2nd outlet …
The cafe Alchemist was the main reason I went. I adore the gothic aesthetic that extends inside the cafe and perfectly complements the structure. With brown leather sofas and chandeliers, the café's seating area is similarly decorated in a gothic style.
The humble estate of Bukit Merah has quite a few interesting finds, from cosy cafes like Refuel II to a new Alchemist Coffee outlet tucked away on the second floor of The Mill— a towering dark kitsch-gothic building located behind the main road of Jalan Bukit Merah.
A pretty industrial cafe, in a pretty gothic building right in the middle of the Bukit Merah industrial heartlands, offering a nice milky latte that went down easily. Hipster hangout for now.
Really quite tasty, fresh and affordable dim sum.
Two of Singapore’s finest Hawker Centre Dim Sum - Five Star Hong Kong Dim Sum Mei Ling Street vs Neptune Hong Kong Tim Sum Marine Parade
Good quality dim sum, with the siew mai springy and fresh and having nice contrasting textures, and the chee cheong fan silky smooth outside and crispy and springy inside.
While the offering at the Carvery was not extensive, it compensates with good quality ingredients and execution, all in a classy setting.
The service here was alright, just that the plates were not cleared fast. The food quality here was not bad.
We were once again impressed by the food served at The Carvery, therefore, no doubt we recommend Park Hotel Alexandra Spanish-inspired Yuletide Celebration.
