It didn't stop me from ordering the same pork lard rice with fried egg the next day too! I commented to Alex that should it be my last day alive, this unassuming pork lard rice would be amongst the dishes I would love to eat before I die.
Though such an item is special, if you were to ask me if I will purposely make a special trip down again for it, I would most answer probably not as the queue had somehow horrified me.
Steamed Whole White Eel with Black Garlic Sauce is so soft, tender and the black garlic sauce is so flavoursome that some of my dining partners are literally licking the plate clean.
Nonetheless, in this neighbourhood, Heng Hua Restaurant still deserves a talk as their menu is rather extensive with a good list of Authentic Heng Hua dishes we can hardly find here.
The eatery gets pretty packed during the weekends and we highly recommend calling in for reservations. Nevertheless, service here is very efficient so you will never have to wait that long for a table.
Nasi Padang is like the Malay equivalence for the Chinese mixed vegetables rice and nasi ambeng, with origins from Indonesia, is similar but...
Food at Coba Coba is halal-certified Indonesian cuisine, focused on Nasi Padang or Nasi Ambeng. With a selection of over 15 dishes that change daily, there's sufficient reason for repeat visits.
Prices are comparable to other such stalls, budget about SGD $11 per person for a meal here.
The pork belly were tender and soft. I enjoyed dipping them into the homemade chilli which added a refreshing tangy twist to the items.
Even as I was busy slurping away, there were a good number of people who came to ask if they were sold out. Seems like you really have to get up early to secure yourself a bowl of their famous kway chap.
I had lived along Yishun Street 11 for a good part of my life (three decades to be exact) and am most acquainted with the shophouses on the ...
No Horse Run holds its own, amongst the stiff competition in the ice cream-gelato scene in Singapore.
Nose-to-tail dining concept seems to be a forward thinking notion which I typically expect from restaurants, hence it is great to have a stall in a neighbourhood coffee shop which embraces such idea.
I was told that the stall has limited portion each day. Hence it is better to call and make a reservation to avoid disappointment.
With the addition of Flaming Chicken Pot, Yishun doesn’t seem so bad after all.
Ah Fatt Mian Fen Guo 阿發面粉粿 (732 Yishun) has in selling handmade noodles in Yishun for more than 20 years.
The chicken meat is topped with shredded scallions and fried garlic bits while underneath it is a portion of bean sprouts dressed in a savory mix of soy sauce and sesame oil.
I wish they would go back to giving the large bowl of soup as that is the deciding factor why I picked them over others.
Hup Lee is my favourite Chinese style nasi lemak in Chong Pang, mainly because of the fried chicken wings.
Seeing that there are so many tutu kueh flavours to try, of course I’ll be making a return trip.
For the longest time ever, I remember that the only hawker food sold at Guan Heng Cooked Food is the Singapore style carrot cake but that’s ...
Having to endure a craving can be such a frustrating chore! My simple mind was hankering for a bowl of dry prawn noodle one Thursday afterno...
I had a hard time finishing the broth given how porky tasting it was. Nonetheless, it's really a steal for S$7.90 and should the ramen craving strike again, i would likely go with the chef recommended tonkotsu gyokai ramen which is a mix of fish and pork broth.
Suparakki Ramen is cheap and accessible.
Though the seating area may get a bit cramped, we definitely wouldn’t mind coming back for such affordable and delectable ramen bowls.
We always see crowds at Sanook Kitchen and this time we went in. It’s a chain that has started to spring up in many malls.
Okay if there’s one thing that may not be recommended, it’s this Seafood Fried Rice with Shrimp Paste. The rice is fragrant and tasty with the shrimp paste, but it kinda felt rather ”empty” as there were but a few shreds of egg and a couple of prawns.
Only the tom yum fried rice is good. Flavourful with a nice wok hei. Well balanced of spiciness and sourness without being too heavy on one side.
Chong Pang Nasi Lemak should be a well-known nasi lemak in Yishun, especially for those deployed to Chong Pang camp.
It's a dilemma for me; to finish the chilli, i need rice but i am not going to have so much rice so late at night! p.s. the coconut milk rice was quite good but to me, my favourite is still Star Hup Lee Nasi Lemak in Yishun!
I like the kampung ambiance at Chong Pang nasi lemak.
Service here is not the friendliest, but I can see why they do have a steady stream of customers. The cozy and tranquil space makes it a great place to catchup, get some work done, or to simply just chill.
What attracted me to this cafe is that it is an open concept and you can have a waterfront view of Yishun pond park. Slow bakes cafe bakery is located at Tzu Chi Humanistic Youth Centre.
Also, with an additional $4 top-up, you can get their Breakfast Set, with your choice of toast, two soft boiled eggs, and a drink.
This fairly known laksa stall offered the mild curry type of laksa. The laksa was thick and flavourful, yet not overly rich. The gravy was balanced with just the right levels of heat and lemak, and was light enough that I slurped up all the gravy. The unique crab stick added a nice sweetness. Very nice.
There is always a long queue at the stall, so be prepared to queue up for more than 20 minutes if you want to savour the delicious bowl of laksa.
I finished the whole bowl of laksa to the last drop, though I forgot to take a photo of the empty bowl to prove it 😂
Following the huge reception of YUN NANS Stonepot Fish that drew long queues and high traffic across Singapore, the restaurant is launching a new culinary sensation inspired by the brand’s signature steam pot chicken soup. Introducing its latest addition to the menu: the rich and creamy Stonepot Chicken Soup with Pig’s Stomach (Regular: $39.80; Large: $68.80) using a premium breed of chicken.
Press Release, SgFood, yun nans, chinese new year 2023
Quite an interesting concept which is similar to steamboat, just that it is over the built-in stone pot at each table in Yun Nans Stonepot Fish. The fish is definitely the highlight for me, and there is a good variety of side dishes to complement the fish. Worth a try if you have the time to queue (or try reserving a table online) and if you are in the area.
Back again. Really tasty and well made foe coffeeshop dim sum.
Really nice deep fried taro dumpling, shatteringly crispy and crackling outside, yammy and soft inside with a nicely marinated fried shrimp, mushroom and chicken meat filling. Everything else looks nice too – worth a try again for their other offerings.
In a nutshell, there were some misses but the prices shall be the main motivation factor as I only paid about S$42, plus the fact I am literally just minutes' away from home. I would know what to avoid in my next visit; definitely no har gow. And the twin brothers should consider improving their ordering system!
And best of all, dessert lovers no longer need to feel guilty about indulging. Not with Bob The Baker Boy’s healthier offerings to the rescue!
grab yourselves some molten lava cookies; we promise you won’t regret it.
Northpoint Mall can be a daunting place to be. So many places inside and you can get lost. But, managed to find Feng Food, a small casual Taiwanese place.
One reservation we do have is that we wish the prices would be a bit cheaper, especially considering that this isn’t a full-fledged restaurant.
