Hotplate Chicken
2014-01-15 102 views
It is past 9pm and the stall is still opened. As I remember the serving here is quite big, I decide to have Hotplate Chicken Chop. It costs $6 a serving and serves sizzling hot. The huge thick slice of chicken chop is stacked on top of french fries and soaked in black pepper sauce. There is mashed potato, broccoli, cherry tomato and corn by the side too. Wow huge serving, that I could barely finish it all. The chicken is very tender and juicy. One thing which I do not like is the fries under the

Wow huge serving, that I could barely finish it all. The chicken is very tender and juicy. One thing which I do not like is the fries under the chicken chop as the fries are not crispy at all after soaked in the sauce, which makes it tastes similar to the mashed potato. The uncle who does the cooking even comes by to check if we enjoy the food. Good job uncle!

Fried Chicken Cutlet
2013-05-27 30 views
This stall still opened at 9.30 pm so good for late dinner. I always ordered chicken cutlet for $6. The portion is huge. Other than chicken cutlets, it has coleslaw, potato salad, mashed potato, tomatoes and lettuce. The stall has got an assistant now so the service is faster. The breaded chicken cutlets fried till very crispy, really nice to eat. I also like their beef steak too.

Fried Chicken Cutlet
2013-03-06 32 views
My usual choice has always been the fried chicken cutlets for $6. It consists of 2 pieces of nicely seasoned then deep-fried chicken cutlets with slices of tomato, a cherry tomato, shredded lettuce, leaf of lettuce, coleslaw, french fries as well as marshed potato. It is definitely value for money. I enjoyed the coleslaw the most. It was one of the nicest i ever tasted. Another must order has to be the grilled chicken chop on hotplate for $6.

Another must order has to be the grilled chicken chop on hotplate for $6. It is quite a big and thick piece served with black pepper sauce. If you are not into black pepper then you might find it to be a little overwhelming.

 This stall used to be manned by the owner himself. He has gotten an assistant recently and this tends to reduce the waiting time especially during dinner.

Yilmaz Western is a stall specialising in western cuisine located in Coffee City Coffee Shop at Ang Mo Kio Ave 6. Normally, when I am in the area, I would order herbal soup from Xu Yang Tonic Soup. However, during my last visit, Yilmaz Western caught my attention.

Yilmaz Western serves some of its western dishes on hotplates (not every western stall in a coffee shop does that). On that specific occasion as I was enjoying my herbal soup, I heard a loud sizzling sound. Turning around, I saw a man carrying the sizzling hotplate with ingredients piled high up to a customer on the table next to me. Well, from that point in time, I knew that I had to try this the next time I am in the area.

Yilmaz Western is essentially a 'one man show' (quoting the owner). Everything; from taking orders, marinating, preparing, defrosting, cooking, serving and collecting payment are all done by the owner himself (how does he cope? I am equally puzzled!). I ordered the Hotplate Grilled Chicken Chop and was expecting to wait for a long time as it was peak period. To my surprised I just waited less than 15 minutes. An amazing feat considering that there were a few other customers in front of me.

 The Hotplate Grilled Chicken Chop was served sizzling hot! I had to wait a few seconds for the sizzling and smoke to lessen before taking the photos. The grilled chicken chop was stacked on top of a whole lot of fries, with mashed potato and steamed vegetables (broccoli, cherry tomato and corn) at the side. With the exception of the steamed vegetables, the ingredients were all drenched in a special sauce.

 A very generous amount of ingredients were given in addition, 3 sides were served; vegetable, mashed potato and fries. Mind you, its not bake beans, not coleslaw! Take a look at how much fries was given and how thick a cut the chicken chop was. The mashed potato was basically hidden behind these.

The sauce made a big difference. The more I dig into it, the more I love it. It seemed to be a kind of fusion of BBQ and Mushroom Sauce with herbal fragrant. Not too sweet, not too salty, the sauce was perfect; incredibly tasty and addictive.

As for the grilled chicken chop, it was well-marinated and had lots of pepper corns spread over it. With the sauce, it provided a refreshing flavour to the tender chicken chop unlike the norm; black pepper/mushroom sauce.

The fries were hard and seems to have been fried a second time (for those not covered in the sauce). But for the fries that were drenched in the sauce, there was a difference in texture. Crispy yet soft, tasty experience. (do give the fries at the bottom some 'stirring' as the hotplate might cause some of the fries to be charred) The mashed potato was normal, but again with the sauce, complemented it perfectly.

I like the fact that the the vegetables were steamed and were very fresh. Moreover serving corn, cherry tomato and broccoli was unique. A nice change from what other western stall normal gives; coleslaw.

Overall, I was very impressed by this one man show! Fresh vegetables, well-marinated meat, generous serving and incredible sauce! The sauce stole the show. You will either love or hate it as the sauce is spread over all the ingredients. In addition, it is so value for money. Highly recommended. You won't know what you are missing till you give this a try!

Yilmaz Western is a hidden gem. Watch this stall, it has great potential to be the best western stall! I hope that this one man show can survive as it is no mean feat managing one stall alone. Can't wait to try it again!

*Edited: Went a second time on a Friday evening for dinner. This time waited for nearly half an hour as he was facing high volume of orders. Food-wise, it was still as good!

Western Food that Wows

Its been quite a while whereby coffeeshop western food can create a wow factor. This place certainly does. Its a one man show stall and the chef helms from some former f&b establishment. Lamb chop ($11) has always been my preferred choice here. Not just the typical hot sizzling plate presentation that wows, the whole dish layout, the tower of mash potato just makes the diner smiles.

 There is nothing much to complain about this dish and most of my friends are happy with their $11 buy. On the other hand, for budget eater, you can always order the chicken chop which is served in similar fashion and cost $6 only. The salmon ($14) was a little costly though but i must say the dish presentation is more than impressive, just look at the picture. if not for the price, this would be another winner.

 The boss also took time to ask us whether the food is ok etc, which is a nice touch. Also he only collects money after you have finished your meal, how many coffeeshop pwner do that nowadays?

 I had Western at some of the coffee shops before and often then not they were very stringy on the sauce - they tend to give little sauce on top of the chicken chop. I believe some of you share the same experience.

But at Ilmaz Western, the sauce was the key! This was my first time having such a saucing Western. The fries, the vegetables, the chicken and the mashed potato were all soak in the delicious peppery sauce!

Everything was nice - the mashed potato was mashed finely, the chicken was not fatty, the fries was crispy and the vegetable with the sauce was perfect!

Despite being a one man show who cook and serve, service was quick even with demand.

This is one of the breathtaking western stall in a coffee shop!
