It was a good and thrifty outing at Downtown East that day after a few hours of crazy fun of Kinect and KTV at $10 per person. We became hungry and went in search of food.Different Taste was literally full to the brim but luckily there was one table for the six of us right at the entrance. Nothing to talk about for the interior design (or lack thereof).

It was a good and thrifty outing at Downtown East that day after a few hours of crazy fun of Kinect and KTV at $10 per person. We became hungry and went in search of food.

Different Taste was literally full to the brim but luckily there was one table for the six of us right at the entrance. Nothing to talk about for the interior design (or lack thereof). It is just a very simple family restaurant with many many big round tables of families with elderly and young children.

To continue our thrifty outing, each of us only paid $10 for the food we ordered! Good and value for money! Wonderful!

鱼漂蟹肉羹(中)Fish Maw Crab Meat Broth (Medium)

Thick and not stingy with the ingredients, I definitely recommend this dish! I'm a soup lover! The fish maw is soft and gooey, delicious!

脆皮豆腐(小)Crispy Tofu (Small)

As its name suggests, it's indeed crispy and it's not hard! As I later discovered that there's prawns in the filling, I only ate that one piece.

麦片鸡(小)Cereal Chicken (Small)

I love this dish as well! The cereal is sweet and crispy! The chicken meat is not hard from the deep frying and retains its juiciness!

酸甜鱼片(小)Sweet and Sour Fish (Small)

The balance is important in this dish and it really did not disappoint! Yummy! Not too sweet nor too sour, just nice, add your mouthful with a piece of the cucumber, perfect!!

This spacious fully air-conditioned place is great for family gathering. It is always packed with diners every evening. Their MUST order dish is the fried Prawn Paste Chicken. It is not oily and the goes best with a dip in the Belachan Chilli. Another MUST try dish is their Curry Fish Head. The curry is appetizing and not watery with lots of vegetables. Their Cereal Prawn is also nice but standard has drop recently and it is quite oily. There is no GST or service charge and you are able to get

My husband and I walked into the restaurant, our first time there although we have been to Downtown so many times.
I felt like having some cereal cooked with something so I settled on the Chicken Cereal along with the Sambal Squid and Fish Maw and Crabmeat Soup. Food came very quick, we waited only around 10minutes for all to be served. The cereal chicken did not disappoint me, i loved it although it was very oily

The soup was yummy too, the fish maw was soft and chewy.
The samba squid was spicy and fresh

I will definitely come again for more on the menu!

I'll usually dine there with my family whenever my mum is not cooking dinner. Our favourite dishes include hotplate seafood, crabmeat with broccoli, sweet and sour fish and occasionally a bowl of fish maw soup would accompany our meal.

It's s great place to dine in for families with its pocket-friendly prices. Plus, the whole family can walk around Downtown East after the meal
