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.
Chef Kelvin also mentioned that he learned his Hong Zao Ji (Chicken with Red Glutinous Rice Wine) from his other grandmother, another dying dish that is very difficult to find. I’ll be sure to head back for that, which is only available on Friday and the weekends!
Though not the best, Shiok Shiok Noodles does serve a decent bowl of noodles.
We left the place with a satisfying stomach. Taste of Thailand just never fails to provide a tasty cuisine experience all this while.
Recommended by Miss Tam Chiak, and opened by the former head chef of Geylang Claypot. You could smell the charcoal claypot fragrance as soon as you entered the foodcourt. The claypot rice was the drier and fragrant type, with quite a bit of rice crisp. This was accompanied by moist and tender chicken, savoury Chinese sausage and a generous serving of crispy pork lard and salted fish. Nice stuff.
They also offer a host of side dishes such as Claypot Chicken in Sesame Oil ($8), Claypot Wine Chicken Soup ($10), Ginger Duck ($8), Handmade Prawn Roll ($4) and more. I enjoyed the Claypot Wine Chicken Soup. The soup was rich, with a good balance of sweetness and savouriness. I will be back to try other dishes!
Wang Lai Bakery has arguably one of the Best Pineapple Tarts in Singapore with a traditional recipe passed down since 1968.
Overall, my experience at the Thomson outlet wasn’t the best but it also wasn’t the worst. Most importantly, I can see how hard the staff is working especially the aunties who are pushing the carts or trying to sit the customers.
In recent months, I had an insatiable craving for dim sum and thought a buffet format, with unlimited indulgence would make me swear off the...
Those of you who are familiar with the old Peach Garden at Thomson Plaza would be impressed with their new facelift.
I have fond memories of Thomson Plaza ; from the Old Yaohan department store, the KFC outlet that served fried chicken on porcelain plates w...
The uni and prawn were creamy and rich, although the uni was just slightly fishy and metallic. The various fish tasted strangely uniform though, and didn’t have much of their own flavour. The toro was even a bit mushy. Odd that this was so popular.
Valuable & Affordable Japanese Food Dining. If you love value for money bowls of Chirashi, you can head to Omote at level 3 of Thomson Plaza. Reservation in advance will be advisable if you want to skip the long snaky queue of being "Walk-in" customers. I tried calling in a few times to reserve but there was not much luck several times but luckily after a few tries in weeks, I manage to get myself and my friends a table.
A good brunch menu & very good crafted coffee make Habitat Coffee @ King George’s Ave one of the best cafes to visit in the Lavender area.
They're super famous as I was put on their waiting list when I was there on a weekend afternoon. The place is cramped and small but their food was awesome! This is really a place for you to dine and go and not a place for you to chill and relax as it's noisy!
Review of brunch at Habitat Coffee cafe along Upper Thomson Road Singapore with pictures of menu, restaurant and food ....
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.
The dishes are as delicious as they are pretty. Everything we had was scrumptious.
Definitely prefer the duck confit hash, even though the roasted potatoes tip the scale slightly.
food was consistently good, and i have no doubt that we'll be back soon.
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.
The crab omelette was generously filled with fresh crab, which was really sweet, tender and qq. The eggs was fluffy inside and had a bit of a char outside, although slightly greasy. The most premium crab omelette I have eaten so far, but without any crispiness on the outside.
Authentic and homely Thai Food at Upper Thomson Road not to be missed.
Since we can’t pop over to the streets of Bangkok now, this is in fact one of the best that I can find now.
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.

Surprised myself with my recent trip to Nam Kee. Will be returning again for its comforting food, and glad that little has changed since.
The food's not bad, the meat's fine, tender with some soy seasoning. The rice could be better but the soup's not bad even though some might find it oily.
I hope i am not gloating here as i did have a delicious main compared to my peers! Given the friendly staff, the chillax environment (both inside and outside the restaurant) and the yummy Basque burnt cheesecake, there's a high chance i would be back!
All in all, it was still an enjoyable meal. Super satisfied with my cheeseburger as always – that’s what I come to GRUB for.
The spiciness was one that was quite debatable and we went through several versions of it.
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 spiciness is also customizable up to 3 levels so non-spicy eaters can enjoy this too.
Continuing my adventures at Upper Thomson road, here's tom yum mama!!
Overall, I was impressed by the quality and taste of the food given their prices.

While Woodlands Sourdough no longer serves up its delightful sandwiches and sourdough loaves, they are still pretty much consistent in terms of quality.
Another sourdough bakery you absolutely need to try is Starter Lab, which hails from Bali. The sandwiches there are a little pricier but well worth your money.
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.
