Chinta Manis located at Greenwich Village sells a wide range of traditional Nyonya Kueh. Whenever i pass by this stall, i will buy my fav nonya kueh which is the colorful layered kueh. The kueh has a nice rich color and it has the nice aroma of coconut and panda. I have the habit of eating one layer at a time, the kueh is very soft and slightly chewy. This would make the ideal afternoon snack.…Read More

Whenever I have the urge to eat swiss roll, i will definitely go to Rich and Good Cake Shop to satisfy my craving. They sell a good variety of swiss roll but my fav swiss roll is the kaya swiss roll at $7.5, it is not the cheapest swiss roll but i can safely say that it is the nicest roll. The roll is very fragrant and they include sufficient cream filling in the swiss roll…Read More

My sister brought this for the family. The most special bread i ever eaten. The center of the bread is stuffed with mashed potato and ham. The mashed potato seasoned with light black pepper. The bread is quite soft and nice. The combination is a good one. 2 pieces of this are already filling. Good to eat as snack or even to replace lunch or dinner. Overall is a good eat. …Read More

One of the newest creations by Breadtalk. The black color bun is known as claypot chicken bun for $2.00. The bun got a bit of charcoal taste. The filling is chinese style three cup chicken. The taste is quite unique with also a light basil taste. Some chunks of chicken meat in the bun. I think $2.00 is expensive for such a small bun. I do not think i will eat again. …Read More

I eaten their nasi lemak for many times. I always ordered the the set that got everything for $5.00. This set got fried chicken wing, otak, fried egg and begedil . The rice got strong coconut taste. I did not like the chicken wing. I think the flour was quite thick and the taste quite plain but it was crispy. The sambal chilli is sweet and not spicy. Overall a good eat but expensive. …Read More

The mango sago dessert is my favourite mango dessert. A bowl is $4.50. It is a big bowl of mango puree with cubes of fresh mango and sago in it. The mango turned out to be quite sour this time. The mango puree also not very sweet. It will be nicer if it is sweeter. It served cold so still refreshing. The overall standard is quite average. This one is not the best mango sago dessert i eaten in Singapore. …Read More

I came to realise this new stall replaced the old one. I still tried. I ordered the $5 one with meatball and sliced beef. It got salted vegetable and peanuts also. The thick bee hoon was cooked to soft. The sauce quite disappointing. The taste is diluted and not sticky enough to stick on the thick bee hoon. The meatball and sliced beef tasted okay. The chilli is only normal and not spicy. …Read More

Had an early lunch with my colleague. He suggested we try the braised duck rice from this stall. I ordered one with braised egg for $3.50. The rice was the yam rice that i like. The duck meat was soft and not very chewy. It did not taste salty too. The braised egg was only normal. The overall standard is okay. It will be nice if it came in a set with peanuts and tau kwa. …Read More

I ordered the $3 plate. The noodle was a lot more than i expected. The noodle cooked quite nice and it was soft and springy. It got vegetable, char siew, normal wanton and fried wanton. I prefer the fried wanton to the normal wanton. I will ask to replace the normal wanton with fried wanton next time. The fried wantons tasted crispy and tasty. This one is value for money wanton mee. …Read More

Had lunch with a business partner here after our meeting. He recommended me to try the herbal soups from this famous soup stall. I ordered the lotus root soup with rice for $5.00. The soup was full of ingredients. It got lotus root, peanuts and pork ribs too. The soup got nice peanut taste and not salty. The texture of pork ribs was soft and not chewy. It was filling with the rice. …Read More

I have eaten the fried kway teow many times. The taste this time was not as good, a sign of fluctuating quality of their food. The queue was long when I ordered the $4 one. The whole plate is mainly kway teow and mee with beansprouts. The Chinese sausage, egg and fishcake was hardly to be seen. The taste was normal; the standard is different. This time, it is not fried by the elderly uncle who usually man the stall. The overall taste is not worth the queue. …Read More

Wanted a hot dessert after dinner so i got a warm cheng tng from this dessert stall as it was a rainy cold evening. I got a warm one for $1.20. It was luke warm with some barley, lotus seeds, ginko, white fungus and also dried longan in it. It did not taste very sweet. The soup got diluted longan taste. The overall taste was not bad. I will try their cold desserts next time. …Read More

I tried the ayam penyet and it was nice. The set is $6.50. Got to order the white rice for $1.00. The fried chicken breast was crispy but a bit oily. The meat was tender and soft. The chicken served with raw cabbage and long bean. The chilli was a bit sweet but very spicy. The meal was filling and worth it. I will come back to try other dishes. The overall standard is good. …Read More

Went early so no queue. Ordered the spring ramen for $11.90. Added $2.00 for the flavored egg. The ramen is quite filling. It got basil and cheese to add taste to the ramen. The cheese taste is not too strong. The charsu was quite tender. I like to add a lot of their marinated beansprouts to my ramen and also their free flow of boiled eggs. I cannot wait to come back for more. …Read More

I was hungry so had nasi goreng and skip the prata. The nasi goreng is $3 per plate. They fried it when ordered so it got a nice warm when served to me. The noodle is enough for me. They fried quite well so the texture was quite soft. It did not taste spicy. The nasi goreng got few slices of cucumber with tomato sauce on it. The cucumber still crunchy and fresh. Overall standard is good. …Read More
