I liked everything that I got except for the fish, which was surprisingly dry.
It was worth the wait, especially with that savory, peppery, and aromatic broth: reminiscent of sup kambing but slightly more clear.
for me it was good as before! perfecto!
overall i still enjoy the mutton soup but not as much. maybe my palate has changed? no?
We weren’t too impressed on our first bite, but the char kway teow became more addictive with every subsequent bite.
Overall, the stall’s comforting wanton mee and warm service make a winning combination that’s worth getting up early for!
This is a place to go to if you are hankering for really good noodles bathed in a tasty sauce!
Overall I enjoyed the fish soup, which is simple and light.
This is a really satisfying meal. If you are planning to go on a diet, this is a good place to start.
Very simple and tasty flavours, moderately savoury spicy with soft chewy noodles, normal bouncy fishballs, and crispy and fragrant lard. I can see why it’s a favourite in the neighbourhood, with solid reliable old school and not too forward flavours.
It’s no wonder many residents come flocking to 昇记 Sheng Ji Fishball Noodle! There’s not only good food to look forward to, but stellar customer service as well! Now I’m having high expectations of their fried kway teow as well, which means I’ll be back here in the near future!
The Three Treasure Mala Special Noodles boasted really quite nice roasts, with sweet, caramelly, charred and tender char siew, thick, smoky and honeyed Chinese sausage, and savoury and balanced sio bak with a solid crackling. The only thing was the sio bak came in sizes that were too small to be satisfying. The noodles were crunchy, and had a gentle sweetness and spiciness, and some ma la fragrance without the ma la numbness.
Wen Ge Charcoal Delights serves up beautifully roasted char siew and lup cheong with rice, noodles and hor fun! Read more.
There’s definitely some truth to long lines in Singapore that goes beyond reputation (aka just solid good food that needs to be appreciated more). Whether you’re dropping by Kim Huat Wanton Mee for breakfast or lunch, you won’t be disappointed!
This old-school wanton mee was not bad, with some savouriness from the oyster sauce, some sweetness from the char siew and some fragrance from the pork lard. The char siew was sticky and sweet, and the shui jiao full and tasty with a whole prawn within. 7.5/10.
The texture and flavour is definitely different, and even though there could have been more wok hei, it’s still a pretty good plate of carrot cake. I’ll have it again if I’m in Bukit Merah!
Soon Li is the only yong tau foo stall open in the dead of night, so they're top dog by elimination.
To be honest, I wouldn’t take the trouble to travel all the way to Bukit Merah just for yong tau foo in the middle of the night. It’s not as impressive as I expected it to be. However, since this hawker stall is so popular, you might wanna give it a try.
If you are visiting for the first time, I would suggest that you try the Curry Pork Ribs which is not commonly available elsewhere.
There have a larger variety of sauces than I’m used to, and it was interesting to observe what combos other patrons ordered.
Overall, if you prefer a lighter and simpler taste in Lor Mee, this will be your take!
The fishballs were bouncy and the meatballs tasty and a bit more textural, although the noodles were quite generic.
Even though each element of the dish, especially the fish paste and the soup, was decently executed, the flavours weren’t exceptionally mindblowing.
it was pretty good being eggy, chewy, and savory.
This was quite an ordinary carrot cake though, unevenly fried with various parts harder, sweeter or more charred, and lacking the eggy fragrance that I like.
It was all very fresh, light, and easy on the wallet.
all the vegetables were good.
At just over $20 for 9 dishes, Ye Shang Hai Teochew Porridge is incredibly wallet friendly.
Sushiro has bak kut teh ramen on its list of specials now, and it was better than I thought it would be with its peppery and garlicky broth.
Yes, it was nice and fatty, and I couldn't help but make an evil grin when noticing the little puddles of fat that had gathered on the plate.
These whole squid are a limited time special at Sushiro right now. Honestly, there was nothing that special about the taste, and I'm kinda just posting it up here for the photo more than anything else. But it was cheap at just S$2.20 (US$1.60) a plate.
aficionados should definitely give Starter Lab Singapore’s handcrafted sourdough a try; also a laid back place for breakfast & good coffee.
The high prices are a result of their labour-intensive process and commitment to quality ingredients, both of which are well worth shelling out for.
I need to be back soon for the sourdough, or any other toast.
