Xin Cuisine Chinese Restaurant at Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium welcomes the Year of the Dragon with a delectable array of perennial favorites available for takeout and an exquisite selection of seven celebratory set menus for dining in.
I’ve been to Xin Cuisine before, and true to expectations, the food was very enjoyable. The first course set the tone with the eye-catching Caviar Roasted Duck. Everyone raved about the Hashima & Crab Meat Soup, and when I say everyone, that includes the Ang Moh and the 2 kids! The baked lobster, so flavourful I really wished I had several more! We thoroughly enjoyed every dish. I guess the only complaint if I had one is that the Braised seasonal Vegetables in Superior Stock looks a little simple and plain, and the portion size not very large.
Xin Cuisine’s Chinese New Year Takeaways are available for order from 1 December 2022 till 2 February 2023 through its e-shop . Available for collection/ delivery from 21 December 2022 to 5 February 2023.
Kok Sen Zi Char Takeaway Oddle Delivery: Claypot Yong Tau Foo, Black Bean Beef Hor Fun, Seafood fried rice ....
A colleague of mine introduced us to Kok Sen on Keong Saik, a Tze Char that produces great dishes. She was surprised that we hadn’t heard about it.
big prawn hor fun was not bad tasting but I wouldn't get it again.
Liao Fan Hawker Chan Few will ever figure out the calculus behind marrying stupendous with cheap, nevertheless Liao Fan Hawker Chan ...
Overall much better, which is the reason for the Michelien star and the 30 minute meandering queue.
整体来说我还蛮喜欢这里的油鸡的，虽然很多人说比它好吃的大把，不明白怎么会是米其林一星等，不过我还是觉得不管星不星还是算好吃的。
Chinatown Complex is a culinary treasure trove, housing numerous famous food stalls. Among these, Ma Li Ya Virgin Chicken 瑪莉亞處女雞 stands out not only for its unique name but also for its specialty in soy sauce chicken.
Ma Li Ya Virgin Chicken at Chinatown Complex Market & Food Centre needs no further introduction but, unless you have eaten it before, you would never have guessed that what I had here is a plate of chicken rice because frankly, it does not even remotely resemble one.
The chicken drumstick was tender and flavourful, with a sweet flowery flavour from the qq soft skin, which had taken on the dark brown of the soy sauce.
I had the wok-fried kway teow infused with smoky wok hei with delightful crunchiness from the diced kai lan.
The fish cucumber was thoroughly braised and tender and gelatinous. The kway teow had very strong wok hei, smokiness and sweetness from the chye poh. The bee hoon was full of sweet seafood goodness. One the nicer Chinese Teochew meals I have had in a while, in a nice refurbished old shop house environment with a courtyard at the entrance.
Great place for Teochew cuisine with many authentic ingredients imported direct from ChaoshanThe teochew porridge is optionavailable during weekday lunch The restaurant menu features other classic Teochew dishes
I feel that the key to being a successful hawker is not only to have tasty dishes but also to have the ability to be consistent, giving people a reason to keep coming back.
This really begs the question as to why there are not more curry mee stalls around, seeing that their business is so good!
It’s always interesting to find out for yourself if the highly-lauded food stalls with perpetually long queues are really worth the wait. Inspired by the local television show, Where The Queue Starts, I decided to put myself in one of those notoriously long queues at Hong Lim Market And Food Centre,…
Discovered another nice hawker stall, Weng Kiang Kee Porridge 荣强记粥品 which is located in Chinatown Complex. However, locating it on the second floor can be a bit challenging.
Overall, I love the consistency and smoothness of the grains. Though tasty, it still lacks the wow factor that will give me every reason to be back there on purpose.
Both the porridge and the pork were clean-tasting. The pork was really fresh, tender, and springy, with a light and pleasant pork flavour. There was a bit too little of the pork though, resulting in the bowl feeling a bit empty.
Yin Ji Chang Fen 銀記腸粉店, which hails from Guang Zhou and opened its inaugural outlet in 2018, boasts a rich history spanning over 60 years.
Food at Yin Ji is focused on Chinese Cantonese cuisine, particularly changfen / chee cheong fun / steamed rice rolls. With a wide variety of filling options, the humble but versatile dish is elevated here. Congee is the other star attraction. Portions are sized for individuals. Prices are wallet-friendly for everyday dining, budget about SGD $10 per person.
Service at Yin Ji is efficient but transactional. Staff interaction is limited to ordering over the counter, and as a result, not much menu knowledge is displayed.
The egg noodles did an outstanding job of taking in all of the gravy and the fried chicken cutlet was a nice compliment to that whole thing.
I have not been dining out much during this period for personal reasons. This pretty much explained why I have not been updating this blog. ...
The curry was lemak, sweet and thick; comforting and only slightly spicy. The noodles were springy and the chicken cutlet thick, crispy outside, juicy inside and flavourful (with five spices). I had finished this, immediately after finishing the char kway teow.
XYT had transformed our local dishes into innovative dishes, adding a special touch to each. Our overall experience was above average no doubt that the price was a bit steep. It will be good for some special occasion and if you are willing to splurge on our local delights with a twist.
The ambience is casual and probably an ideal place to hang out with friends to share the calories.
Xiao Ya Tou, or better known as XYT, is a modern Asian restaurant bar on Duxton Hill that serves up a plethora of playful and somewhat cheeky food and drink offerings—all of which find their inspirations stemming from cuisines from all across Southeast Asia.
There are probably a billion restaurants on this planet that have a similar name. So I was dismissive of this place when I had first heard of it, puzzled as to why this was suggested for tonight (98 Amoy Street, 8533-9928).
The Chengdu Bowls were really hearty and delicious!
After trying out Chengdu Restaurant New Menu, I am sure I will return for other dishes.
Lian He Ben Ji Claypot Rice 联合本记煲饭 , a popular eatery situated in Chinatown Complex, has gained significant recognition and has been included in the prestigious Michelin guide.
The chicken was smooth, tender and well flavoured. Still my favourite claypot rice after all these time, with a forty five minute wait on a Wednesday evening, in a seriously crowded corner of the food centre.
For its taste and quality, Lian He Ben Ji is well worth the price.
The oldest Chinese restaurant in Singapore is said to be Spring Court (詠春園). This family-run Chinese restaurant along Upper Cross Street (across Chinatown Point) has a history that goes back to 1929.
While we waited for the food, the pickles at Spring Court was so so good. Could finish one whole plate on my own.
Food at Spring Court Restaurant revolves around traditional Chinese cuisine, with a particular focus on Cantonese and Hokkien dishes, most of which you can't find elsewhere.

Eating at Song Fa Bak Kut Teh Chinatown Point is not exactly a cheap option. However, it is air-conditioned and a comfortable spot to enjoy good old Teochew Style bak kut teh and a variety of side dishes.
Song Fa Bak Kut Teh (Originally at Clarke Quay) has opened a second branch at Chinatown Point! Yes, there are still queues at this one, but the perk is that it’s in aircon and more modern surrounds.
Crabs in the past were presented in less complicated forms; steamed, with chilli or black pepper. Things started evolving quickly about 20 y...
Bring your friends and family to Mellben Signature for a stellar seafood feast that you won’t soon forget!
There was sweet and sour pork with longan on ice though.
They are undoubtedly one of the best Dim Sum restaurants in Singapore.
I'm sure Yum Cha 飲茶酒樓 is already a well-known Dim Sum restaurant in Singapore.
Yum Cha Christmas Special offers diners an option to celebrate this Christmas with yummy Christmas theme Chinese food.
With an extensive menu, there are a lot of items to choose from and making a return trip is necessary.
Overall, I really loved eating here at Oriental Chinese restaurant as we get to taste the famous dishes from each different region of China since we are unable to travel now, Most of the dishes are nice simple food resembling dishes you get from a local Chinese family.
Ever since I started covering the lunar new year bazaar at Chinatown, an eatery, serving North-eastern Chinese cuisine and located beside Li...

Zhong Gou La Mian Xiao Long Bao is one of the many places in the Smith Street Hawker Center/Chinatown Food Court. It has long queues all the time for the products. Xiao Long Bao and Fried Dumplings…
Hunan Cuisine Restaurant (密斯湘菜馆) has been serving Hunan style food in Singapore since 2009 for more than 10 years.
We love Xiang Signature’s Hunan dishes! The Hunan Style Fried Pork ($15.80) consisted of pork stirred fried with green pepper. The pork slices were tender and juicy with a savoury flavour that wasn’t overwhelming. Infused with the subtle green pepper flavour, it tasted great.
All in all, the dishes are savory, and somewhat heavy on the palates. We’re told that due to limitation of choice chilies, the spice factor is a tad milder than it originally should be.
While the other Soy Sauce Chicken in the vicinity has been awarded Michelin Star sometimes back, I still find that I enjoy traditional food like this in the coffee shop environment. It is good to remain the food taste as well as the environment as I find that the other was way too commercialized, losing its main focus on the taste of food.
The chicken was very tender and moist, and I cleared everything on that tray tonight.
It was all edible, but I probably should've ordered the yellow noodles that I saw everyone else getting. More importantly, they gave me a surprisingly dry peice of breast meat, making it a far cry from Liao Fan Hawker Chan.
