The duck was tender but slightly firm, and savoury with the flavours of soy sauce and spices. A bit normal though. The first time I came on a Sunday, the queue was crazy and stretched way out of the coffeeshop. It was much more normal on this weekday morning.
Hup Seng Duck Rice ranks amongst my favourite braised duck rice stall in Singapore, and have been visiting it since – and not least in the future.
If you’re looking to satisfy a duck rice craving in a cosy neighbourhood coffeeshop, this is the place for you.
It worked for me. The broth wasn't particularly aromatic, but it was crisp and salty, giving it a nice edge.
But I wanted the beef noodle, which was Lanzhou-style even though it wasn't halal and with a dao xiao knife cut noodle option.
Give this shaved noodles stall a try if you are at Bishan MRT station. Not many hawker stalls in Singapore serve this.
My passion for noodles knows no bounds! After seeing someone rave about the KL-style Hokkien Mee at this establishment, I simply had to experience it firsthand.
Sticky and gloopy brown fried porridge in a claypot. Very savoury, tasty and full of wok hei, with layers of flavours from the dried shrimp, pork lard, pork and yam etc.
Food at Dynasty Fried Porridge is Malaysian Chinese zi char cuisine. With their liberal use of pork lard, dishes with heavy sauces or gravy tend to be packed with flavour.
Some of the flavours that you can look forward to are their Roasted Bronte Pistachio, Whisky & Salted Pecan Brittle, Cereal Milk and Hazelnut, Chocolate Chips & Vanilla.
Unlike supermarket ice-creams that have chunky chocolates, nuts, or fruit in every scoop, the ones here showcase their flavours via quality ingredients incorporated seamlessly to become a creamy gelato.
New gelato flavours are invented every week to keep things fresh and exciting, and the exclusive gelato flavours available only at Denzy Gelato promises a unique and unforgettable experience for all who patronise them.
overall an enjoyable breakfast with close buddies
It’s one of Singapore’s the most popular hawker treats with roots in India, but has since evolved and been embraced in countries across Southeast Asia.
I will return for the Coin Prata for sure, and stick to it solely. Half a dozen is probably not enough.
Despite the diminutive size of Singapore, there are plenty of hidden gems that are not known to many except for those who live in the area o...
An excellent starter to kick start the night is the Deep Fried Sakura Prawns ($10). It is crispy and crunchy, with the sweetness of the sakura prawns coming through with its bite.
Overall, it was quite an enjoyable lunch.

The chicken drumstick was perfectly roasted to a golden brown and had a crisp skin which was a delightful textural contrast to the tender and succulent meat.
I will definitely be back for their chicken rice! On weekends, the eatery also serves kampong chicken which is less fatty, but richer in flavour.
The spread at Serangoon BBQ & Curry 1983 is amazing. I love the comforting, home-cooked flavours of the dishes and the wide variety of options means there is definitely something for everyone. If you are a Nasi Padang lover, this is one spot to check out in Singapore.
This Shanghai Noodle has drawn my attention.
Serangoon BBQ & Curry serves nasi padang with butterfly pea rice in Sin Ming! Talk about good food with affordable price tags! Read more.
The toast was a bit floppy and soft as well, with little crisp outside. What saved this was the fragrant and sweet kaya, with a flavour unlike anything I have tasted anywhere else.
Charcoal Traditional Toast is now my benchmark for kaya-butter toast, replacing Ah Weng Kor of the old Imbi Market in Kuala Lumpur.
I wouldn’t mind having it again if I have to wait for my prata, though it wouldn’t warrant a special visit just for it.
Good Bites in Bishan.
Bishan is a town in Singapore that I would visit every working day as it has an essential train interchange for me to get from home to my wo...
The half fried / cooked omelette was very good – runny all through, slippery and tasty with good fragrance and sweet soy sauce flavour. The sesame seeds and fried garlic bits added to the aroma. The fried rice was fragrant, spicy and grainy.
Definitely will be back for more. Nice food, comfortable environment, reasonable pricing, and soon just 5 minutes walk from Bright Hill MRT station on the Thomson - East Coast Line.
With such a wide variety offered on Caffe Zeppin Menu, there is no lack of choices. What to order? Certainly has to be Taiwanese Braised Minced Pork Rice and Pork Belly Don.

It's Thursday afternoon and i badly needed lunch before attending the CPR course at Singapore Heart Foundation; a food court would be the best bet and i recalled there's a teochew fishball noodles at Junction 8's Food Junction!
Other must order dishes include their prawn cakes and prawn omelette (swoon).
One place off the To-Visit List! I have been waiting to visit Jai Thai every time I pass by their outlet in Bugis. Considering the price and quality of food, the standard is there and decent. I won't mind recommending people there for a pocket-friendly Thai Food over in Jai Thai.
chye poh horfun, Ong Yong Lee Seafood Zi Char, review, sgfood, horfun
All in all, the standard, which is, well, very impressive and I am eager to return for their other dishes.
it was a wonderful dinner with good friends. we don’t meet often…it was good sharing and fellowship
The dishes were all good, though perhaps the previous time was even better.
Another winning dish is the wok-fried crab meat with egg white and truffle oil.
It is not so much for the quality of food but the industrial location vibes and the fact that there is actually a Char Chan Tang tucked in this corner here which makes it charming.
There are a few value set meals priced at $7.80 that are available for selection.
The chicken rice was flavourful with chicken oil, moist and of the right oiliness, and still grainy. There was also a slight sweetness from the sauce. One of the nicest chicken rice around.
Overall, I give Ming Kee Chicken Rice the following rating: Food: 4/5 Space & Ambience: 3.5/5
Whereas Ding Ji opens 24 hours, which is ideal to satisfy my craving at any time of the day.
Ding Ji is a coffeeshop stall franchise owned by Fei Siong, serving fishball noodles and mushroom minced pork noodles.

I shall be back for this and for their ban mian noodles (which going by their springy, chewy mee hoon kueh, I expect will be very nice too).
It tasted simple with a homecooked feel. I would not mind eating again if I happen to be in the vicinity.
