Look no further than People's Park Food Centre where I had the pleasure of discovering Hong Peng La Mian Xiao Long Bao 洪鹏拉面小笼包, a Michelin Bib Gourmand stall celebrated for its exquisite hand-pulled noodles, xiao long bao, and delectable dumplings.

Hong Peng La Mian Xiao Long Bao may not serve the best of these dishes, but certainly hits the spot with its generous servings at good pricing.
This was one of those artisan food stalls, selling only one item – a $4.50 bowl of yong tau foo soup without noodles – and with short operating hours. This stall had been here for ages, since i was young, , and had a perpetual queue for as long as I remembered. The yong tau foo was light, refreshing and tasty, tasting of fresh ingredients, i.e., the tofu and the fish paste, and solid flavourful clear broth. Good stuff.
It really is a simple dish, but to make a simple dish shine is the tough part, and Yong Xiang Xing Dou Fu has nailed it.
The Penang assam laksa here might be a little pricier, but almost everything in the kitchen is freshly handmade and lovingly prepared by Ms Pat everyday.
The meat was a little chewy, moist but not juicy.
We got ourselves a mixed roast meat - char siew, duck and roast pork. Pretty good.
Nice as I remembered it.
I am glad that I have made the right decision because I could place my order right away as soon as I arrived without the need to queue.
We also had the Bao Luo Fun Soup ($3.50 for pork; $4 for beef) which is definitely much lighter in taste.
The hawker centre underwent a 3-months long renovation last year and is now comparatively cleaner and brighter. However, the persisting bird nuisance remains a issue to be addressed.

Every item was good, with the only exception being the noodles having a slight kee or alkaline flavour, although this was made up for by the outstanding sauce made of dried shrimps and kelp.

A trip to Maxwell to da bao brought us to some of our favorites and some new experiences too. China Street Fritters and their Ngoh Hiang, Liver Rolls, Egg Slice and Sausage with Bee Hoon.
Nice. The rendang was nutty and lemak
Here was the yuxiangqiezi from Birds of a Feather, a place that I haven't been back to in ages. The dishes were dressed up with lots of fancy garnishes; their barramundi chazuke was more upscale (complete with a theatrical presentation) compared to the one at Sichuan Alley.
Birds Of A Feather 2022 115 Amoy Street #01-01 https://www.birdsofafeather.com.sg/ Pork Dumplings (SGD $17)
Overall, this is the first time I came to BOF and I totally enjoyed the food here. Instead of the overpowering spicy Sichuan cuisine, most of the dishes have been well thought out, multi-layered yet balanced, delicious and well-executed.

LIME Restaurant serves up a resplendent a la carte buffet feast, perfect for a hearty reunion in celebration of the Lunar New Year.
That looked and tasted much better than it sounded, with that super tender pork belly covered in a velvety yet light sauce over distinct grains of rice.
If I can just get past my guilt, then I might come here more often given the good quality of ingredients that they use in these Inflation Menu dishes.
The Inflation Menu item at The English House today was this fish pie, which was delicate and easy to eat. It turns out that they also have wine by the glass on the Inflation Menu too.
I am not sure if I've been here before, but it;s one of those large Cantonese restaurants serving banquets over multiple courses (65 Chulia Street #33-01, 6536-7833). That included that braised abalone and sea cucumber platter above, as well as that roast duck and steamed fish in the background.
I have been to at least 4 other outlets of Peach Garden Chinese Restaurant for their dim sum buffet and a la carte Chinese dishes buffet. A notable household name in Singapore, many Chinese families will choose Peach Garden as their venue for weddings or birthday celebrations. Serving authentic Cantonese cuisine, Peach Garden has strong accolades from publications like Singapore Tatler and Wine and Dine
A must-have delicacy for the Chinese New Year, the Black & White Sesame Nian Gao is soft and chewy with a very subtle hint of black sesame.
we concluded the meal, relishing in yet another happy dining experience at Wine And Chef.
Very ordinary squid ink pasta – I couldn’t taste the uni in the sauce at all.
