HEAR: Click to listen/ download podcast of this week’s swimmingly superb porridge episode! SEE: Masterchef Singapore Judge Chef Damian D’Silva loves porridge. Specifically Teochew-style…
Their standard and quality of dishes have been reputable and consistent all these years.
Craziness runs in my blood but i am still surprised that i agreed to the Great Kon's suggestion to travel all the way to Yuhua Village for get-together lunch on a weekend!
Juicy bu jian tian char siew with a light sweet marinade and subtle savoury smokey flavour enveloping slender crunchy Hong Kong style egg noodles.
Most of their items gets sold out pretty fast by noon. Even though they are opened only for four hours a day, their typical day starts at about 3am when they have to start roasting their meats at the stall.
An average black carrot cake – really sweet, slightly firm, just a little wok hei and char, but little to no egg fragrance.
This is definitely one of the more underrated stalls in Yuhua Village Market and Food Centre that deserves more attention, so do pop by for breakfast or lunch when you’re in the neighbourhood!
The waffle in the spicy chicken waffl burger was slightly doughy and crispy and sweet, and went well with the slightly crispy spicy savoury chicken patty, mayo, tomato and lettuce. All these went down nicely with the cheese chips.
No doubt about them being reputable and popular in the Market. If Zai Shun is closed, Rong Cheng Delight can be a good alternative if you want to have some "Fishy Eats".
This stall only opens in the morning, and you’ve to be prepared to brave the queue.
Here are the items that we ate that day. Other than the siew mai and spring roll, I cannot remember exactly what the other items were. The one thing I can remember is that the best dim sum item was the fried spring roll. That was comparable to those served at Orchard Road Chinese restaurants.
The braising sauce was quite nice, thick and meaty savoury with a hint of sweetness. The ingredients were quite generous too. However, some of the ingredients seemed a bit soft and airy as opposed to firm and crispy in some cases as I expected.
Besides these, Xie Jia Chinese Prata also serves up Lontong ($3.50) and Curry Chicken Noodles ($4.50). They’re open from as early as 5.30am daily but closes at 12.30pm, so be sure to get there early!
I will definitely drop by again whenever I got cravings for Paper Wrapped Chicken.
What I didn't like was the roasted pork. The crackling was so hard that I gave up after a couple of pieces.
It’s worth noting that the stall doesn’t utilize charcoal, which is known for imparting a unique smokiness to steamboat soups. However, the overall taste and quality of the soup is still impressive enough to warrant a return visit.
The spicy savoury combination is best paired with their homemade cinchalok to give that perfect balance to each dish.
The decor is bare bones minimalist, the coffee is pretty good but the stars here are the fine handcrafted French style cakes.
Overall, i must say our group (a few of them were extremely picky when it comes to food) had a great time savouring the quality artisanal cakes / pastries / tarts but felt that its location would eventually result in its closure.
Lee’s Confectionery is a welcomed patisserie in the west serving delicate French haute patisserie.

Joo Siah Bak Koot Teh delivery review - pictures of pork ribs soup, braised pork belly, bean curd skin, preserved vegetables ...
Personally, I like coming here in the early morning to get my peppery bkt fix.

Hua Xing Bak Kut Teh & Steamed Fish review - BKT Lunch at Yuhua Market Hawker Centre, Jurong East Singapore with pictures of food and stall
A hidden hawker gem in Jurong with a multi-generation following for their peppery bak kut teh, Teochew steam fish and asam fish enjoyed with Nanyang tea.
The bak kut teh was very peppery and porky, but didn’t seem to have any additional layers of fragrance. The mui cai was not bad, but couldn’t save the soup. I think this had been featured variously due to their old-school taste, which I didn’t appreciate.
Lai Heng Handmade Teochew Kueh is the food stall with the longest queue at Yu Hua Place hawker centre in Jurong East.
Four types of Teochew kueh are available and can be enjoyed steamed or pan-fried. The pink heart-shaped rice kueh costs $1 each and the rest are 80 cents each for the steamed version ($1.10 and $0.90 respectively for the pan-fried version).
Lai Heng Handmade Teochew Kueh really deserves its reputation for amazing Teochew kuehs.
Price of food was on a steep side. Nonetheless, if you are looking for an environment that is away from the Shopping Malls, this can be a good choice. On top of that, they do have live band performances on some evenings in the week.
The salted egg prawn pasta here was smooth, salty, creamy and fragrant with salted egg and curry. The pasta was soft, and the prawns bouncy and succulent. Not bad.
Food at Fountain Microbrewery generally consists of Western style, Modern Singaporean cuisine, with finger food dominating.
The rice was 粒粒分明, with good wok hei, and XO and hae bi fragrance (perhaps a bit too salty). The pork chop was meaty, tender and juicy, with a nice slightly savoury and meaty flavour.
King of Fried Rice Opening its 6th Outlet at Jurong East!
As overall, if you are comparing King of Fried Rice to DTF's fried rice, I will still prefer the taste of DTF.
