I'm on holiday in Singapore and was looking for a cheap, quick meal before heading back to my hotel.  Instead, I stumbled across a wonderfully scrumptious dinner!  I had the BBQ chicken dry noodles (option 5 on the menu), and it was the perfect balance of flavours: salty, umami, sweet, sour (and a hint of spice if you add the chilli).   Of all the options in Food Republic, I settled on this one, because it looked most balanced in terms of having both meat and vegetables (so many other places see

I'm on holiday in Singapore and was looking for a cheap, quick meal before heading back to my hotel.  Instead, I stumbled across a wonderfully scrumptious dinner!  I had the BBQ chicken dry noodles (option 5 on the menu), and it was the perfect balance of flavours: salty, umami, sweet, sour (and a hint of spice if you add the chilli).   Of all the options in Food Republic, I settled on this one, because it looked most balanced in terms of having both meat and vegetables (so many other places seemed very protein heavy).  The noodles were soft with a bounce to its bite; the chicken was grilled had a crisp bite, tender flesh inside, and a sweet glaze; the dish was contained really fresh lettuce, and a salad of julienne carrot and mango - a really succulent and fresh balance to complement the meat.  This was all washed down with a simple but refreshing broth that was served with the noodles on the side.  I was thoroughly happy that my "quick and cheap" meal turned out to be such a delightful surprise!
Other Info. : I don't usually bother to send compliments to the chef in a food court, but this time, after finishing my meal, I did go back to the counter and thank the staff. It turns out they are actually from Vietnam, which explains why the food is so good and authentic!
