Char Siew Bao of Tanjong Rhu, sometimes known as the char siew bao from Kampung Arang. This is definitely (in my humble opinion), one of Singapore's best Char Siew Bao and it's a hidden gem, tucked away in an old housing estate in Singapore. During lunch time, there would be a queue for buying their Tim Sum, especially their Char Siew Bao !

Introducing Chin Sin Huan Eating House Tim Sum & Pau, more affectionately known as the Tanjong Rhu bao, I recalled my first trip years ago in 2001, when the coffee shop wasn't renovated, still pretty much in its authentic retro fittings and furnishings, I had a taste of their very famous Char Siew Bao and today, almost 10 years later, the standards have maintained and it is still as delicious, tasty and wonderful.

At the coffee shop, they have wanton mee, that I feel is not too bad. Personally, their tim sum especially their char siew bao is the best and something that I must definitely eat when I am there ! They also have chicken buns, lian rong bao, siew mai and lor mai gai.

When you are there, do give the other buns a try too, however, you must definitely try their Char Siew Bao ! It simply melts in your mouth ! Absolutely delicious, tasty, yummy ! The photos I took may not look nice, however, once you have a taste at them, you would be convinced by their Char Siew Bao !

This Char Siew Bao is a hidden gem and ranks among the better/best char siew bao in Singapore !

Do visit them & try it out ! Do go there earlier and buy the Char Siew Bao because it is very popular and it might be sold out !

When Clementi West Street 2 Hawker Centre was closed for renovation and upgrading, some of the stall owners decided to move away or leave the business while there were some newcomers too.

Along came Mei Feng RoastedChicken Rice, with a pretty good reputation, having sticker labels on their stall glass windows, highlighting their presence in the web. Along with a steady line of customers queuing up to buy their roasted chicken, roasted pork and char siew meat, it reinforced their status and popularity on why they are 1 of the more popular stores at Clementi West Street 2 market.

Their roasted chicken is good, however, I personally prefer their roasted pork and char siew meat ! A nice side dish placed on their plates are not cucumbers, they are mixed vegetables and pickles, that really gives it a different and unique flavour to it !

Take a look at their Char Siew meat, sleek and tender, juicy and delicious, not oily too. Their gravy is superb and really tastes good on the rice ! The roasted pork is not too fatty and oily, roasted nicely and not overcooked, crunchy skin, juicy and delicious !

Coming from the bus stop direction, you can't miss this stall especially during lunch time & weekend lunch crowds too! Look no further, queue up for Mei Feng Roasted Chicken, Roasted Pork and Char Siew Meat, taste it and the delicious, tasty roasted meat would come to light and why it is a popular stall there at Clementi West Street 2 Hawker Centre!

A food stall that been in the Clementi West Street district for a number of years, Western Food is a store that has a number of supporters and customers, with their wide range of western food dishes, quantity and taste.

They would have their chicken cutlet, chicken chop, pork, beef steak, fish & chips, chicken wings etc etc and also fried rice combination with chicken cutlet or chicken chop. Over the years eating at their stall, I would usually have chicken cutlet, chicken chop or fried rice combination with chicken cutlet or chicken chop.

Their portion is quite good, nice amount of french fries, coleslaw, bun and baked beans. For the chicken cutlet and chicken chop that I am familiar with, it won't be overcooked and for the chicken chop, not fried too deeply in the oil thus not too oily. As for the chicken cutlet, the gravy is nice and compliments it well with the fried rice (if you choose the fried rice combination instead of the chicken chop set).

Nevertheless, do try their other western set meals too, their pork and beef sets are pretty good too! They don't open till that late at night and sometimes when I come back pretty late in the night, no more western food for me.

Having stay in Clementi West area for 3 decades, I eat at my hawker centre very often and this is 1 of the stalls that I would eat quite often, value for money & tasty western food !

Do drop by and taste their western food !

Formerly tucked away in a small shophouse along Purvis Street, in hot and humid conditions, patronised and followed by beef noodles lovers, I had enjoyed their beef noodles at their Purvis Street outlet and did not realise that they moved to the other street beside them and gone through a revolutionary change in their layout, design, decoration and history.

Before I go further, let me introduce their famous trademark dish, the Hock Lam Street Popular Beef Kway Teow.The gravy is not too thick, nice and smooth (if you choose the dry noodles option), holding it up well even when the noodles/kway teow is mixed with the beef portions.

There are different varieties of beef portions that you can order with your beef kway teow and I chose the mixed Beef dry Kway Teow set, a nice mixture of beef slices, beef balls, beef intestines and liver.

The beef portions are tender and tasty, not overcooked and definitely fresh. Take a closer look at the crushed peanuts and pickled vegetables on my beef noodle, that's 2 key ingredients that makes it special too ! The chili and fish sauce, along with their soup, is a must have combination of spices and seasoning to complement your beef noodles/kway teow.

The current outlet at 38 Seah Street is so much nicer and better, in terms of floor size (hold more customers), nice air-conditioning, beautiful walls fitted with history of Hock Lam Beef, nice tables and chairs. From the days I had their beef kway teow at Purvis Street a few years ago, their standards have remained and their beef kway teow still taste just as authentic and delicious.

If you around Beach Road / Seah Street area, do drop by and try them out !

Chicken rice, is one of our popular dishes in Singapore, well known and well liked by both the locals and tourists too. Hainanese Chicken Rice is a wonderful cuisine, loved it greatly and I do regularly eat Hainanese Chicken Rice.

Situated in one of Singapore's oldest shopping centre, on the 5th floor is this food outlet known as Hainanese Delicacy, a Hainanese Chicken Rice store that had been there for quite a number of years. During lunch time, it's always crowded and have lots of people queuing up to eat there. One of their specialty is that their Hainanese Chicken Rice is boneless and customers don't have to take away the bones before enjoying their chicken meat.

Take a look at the Hainanese Chicken, it's tender and delicious, nicely cooked and not oily. The sauce that accompanies the Hainanese Chicken taste great too, bringing out the flavour of the Hainanese Chicken, a perfect compliment. For the rice, you would be to taste the aroma and chicken flavour that are inside the rice, not too soggy and their cooking style suits my taste buds. Their chili is not too spicy and have lots of “power” spiciness nevertheless, mix it nicely with their ginger paste and thick black soy sauce, you have an awesome combination for your Hainanese Chicken Rice.

Hainanese Delicacy has been there for many years and they still maintains their high standards of Hainanese Chicken Rice. Till date, they still have a loyal and strong following customer base at their outlet, this alone, is a strong testimonial to their Hainanese Chicken Rice and that's why they are a specialist in Hainanese Chicken Rice.

If you are looking for Hainanese Chicken Rice, Hainanese Delicacy at Far East Plaza is an outlet for you to visit and enjoy them !
