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.
The garlic sauce is either a love or hate affair, if you are no fan of garlic, you may want to opt for brown sauce or even choose other dishes without the use of garlic sauce. As for those who are mad for garlic, this creation may suit your style.
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!
Light, comforting, lightly savoury and balanced pork soup, with chewy mee hoon kueh, tender and nicely marinated minced meat balls, and factory made bouncy fishballs. Nice.
Tanjong Rhu Wanton Noodle in a small coffee shop on Old Airport Road is probably one of my most favorite Wanton Noodles in Singapore.

Freshly Made Chee Cheong Fun makes the humble rice roll, including rice sheets from flour, on the premises to order; good delicate and delicious version.
As I ventured into the bustling Old Airport Road hawker centre, renowned for its myriad of culinary delights, I found myself drawn to the lesser-known yet highly-praised stall—Qiu Rong Ban Mian.
Hua Ji XO Fish Head Bee Hoon 🥣 华记XO鱼头米粉 is located at Old Airport Road Food Centre which is home to many yummy food stalls such as Dong Ji Fried Kway Teow and Nam Sing Hokkien Fried Mee and Hin Fried Hor Fun with Prawn · Beef · Sliced Fish.
Fishballs were said to be made by the stall owners fresh daily and they wake up early in the morning daily to fry the fish cakes. 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.
For Mr Low, Grandma’s recipe is at the heart of 168 Curry Chicken. And as the saying goes: home is where the heart is.
They have a variety of hor fun such as with prawns and sliced fish and also mui fan with the same ingredients. Prices are also affordable from $5 - $6. They are accessible from Mountbatten and Dakota MRT Station.
If it’s a rojak fix you’re looking for, the queues can’t be wrong! Toa Payoh Rojak plays attention to balance – nothing is too pronounced, but yet there’s no blandness in sight. This is a punchy dish done extremely well, with a whole gamut of taste profiles coming together deliciously.

I always walk by Choon Guan at the coffeeshop at Old Airport Road and there is always a very long queue. I have often wondered why. One day after dropping my son off at school, there was amazingly …
Everyone loves a good deal but when it comes to king of fruits, it can get a bit complicated; you wouldn't want to waste your daily calories intake with lousy durians and that's the reason why people would usually check out reviews, for better or for worse.
Li Dou Shi is definitely worth a shot if you’re craving for comforting and affordable Fujian-style cuisine! The portions are also rather generous so you don’t have to worry about walking away still hungry.
The satay was nicely marinated and sweet, tender, and barbequed expertly with just hints of char and good smokiness. The peanut sauce with pineapple provided a good zing. This was really a masterful satay, one of the best around, and no queue that day!!
Quite average. Quite mushy, although silky, and the sauce was lightly savoury and tasty.

Whitley Road Big Prawn Noodle at Old Airport Road Hawker Centre and char siew rice from Ah Yee Hong Kong Roasted were the yummy local delights that we ended up eating when we were in the Mountbatten MRT Station vicinity recently.
Banh Mi Thit in Geylang has gotten a good reputation for the best Banh Mi in town. I tried a variety of them to check it out. Let me start off by saying the bread is absolutely amazing.
The coffee was pre-brewed, but I didn't mind as it was fast and dirt cheap. Yeah, I'll come back here again.
Yeah, I'll come back here again.
If you’re looking for a little more variety, the same coffeeshop has a branch of the famous Dunman Char Siew Wanton Mee (QQ noodles & super-spicy chilli sauce!) and an awesome fried oyster omelet (see above). Tao Kee Fried Oyster is a couple of stalls down from Swee Guan Hokkien Mee and was a brilliant discovery by my family – we thoroughly enjoyed the version with a little starch added. It was extra crispy and not gluey or gloopy. So good, we ordered two $10 rounds of the addictive dish served with lots of fresh coriander and a tangy chilli sauce!
Still, I’m a little unsure on whether I would return for this pricey Hokkien mee but there’s no doubt that this is one of the better renditions that you can find in Singapore.
Swee Guan Hokkien Mee impresses me with its strong charcoal flavour and delicious noodles, and that itself is worth returning.
