My wife and I find the food at the Foodcourt in Clementi Mall to be too pricy, hence we made our way to the coffeeshop here. I orderd a plate of chicken rice for myself and I was surprised that they actually separated the chicken from the rice. The chicken dish had a bit of gravy in it and the gravy includes sesame oil as the sesame oil taste is very distinct. The chicken meat is hence very flavourful as it had absorbed much of the gravy in the dish. For the rice, it is very tasty as well with the fragrance from the chicken stock. It is great enough to have it on its own without chili, but the chili helps to add a sourish and spicy tang to the rice. The portion is quite worth it as well, I paid only $4 for this.

I was with my wife at Toa Payoh for a health seminar a few weeks back and we dropped by Toa Payoh HDB hub for our lunch first before the seminar. I was feeling quite adventurous so I tried out the Vietnamese food from this stall. The beef horfun caught my fancy so I ordered a bowl of it. It costs me $4.50. The soup looked as if it was very light tasting but in actual fact, the soup is actually rather salty. I just ate the horfun without the soup since it is sodium overdose. The beef are sliced thinly so it is quite tender. However, there are quite a lot of tendons on the sliced beef which made it quite hard to swallow. I would say it is quite a disappointment overall due to the saltiness of the soup and the lackluster beef. Another thing to note is that the soup is rather strong in a spice which I presume is the green leaves on the bowl so the soup is not for everyone.

My colleagues and I went for a drink and snacks at Hooters. The waitresses there are dressed quite openly. I guess that is the draw of the restaurant so as to attract people to dine in there. We ordered their chicken wings which seems to be present in most tables. The wings come in a few sizes, we ordered 20 pcs of two different flavours, the Habanero BBQ sauce and the traditional buffalo hot sauce. The chicken wings are really tasty. The chicken meat is tender, the skin is crispy and the sauces are nice as well. I especially love the BBQ taste from the Habanero BBQ sauce, it is very unique and one of its kind. The other dish that we ordered was the steam shrimp. Although steamed, the shrimps are flavoured with some spice. If you find the taste to be not enough, you can dip it with their cheese dip or the other dip which I can't really identify what it is. The food is slightly expensive though but alright since it is shared among quite a lot of people.

I am normally not a fan of bubble teas but my children introduced me to this drink to try and once I tried it, I was hooked. The drink that they got me to try was the Black Tea Macchiato. I ordered the $2.40 portion and the tea is unlike the normal teas. You will need to sip off the layer of milk at the top and then drink the tea. It is quite special as other teas will normally require that you shake the cup but not this. I find that the milk at the top is pleasantly sweet and smooth and it is very tasty. The tea at the end was quite refreshing and not too sweet. I had mine at 50% sugar level which I find it just right for me.

My favorite stall for chee cheong fun is not open so I went around the food centre hunting for another stall that sells it. I found this stall and thought it quite interesting that this stall sells both orh jian and chee cheong fun. I decided to try ordering from them a packet for takeaway. The sweet sauce is very tasty and it went very well with the chee cheong fun and yam cake. The sweet sauce is sweeter than the one from my usual stall. I preferred the sauce from my usual stall but even so, I find it refreshing for a change to try something new from another stall. As for the chee cheong fun here, it is quite normal, I guess it is probably sourced from a factory and not handmade. Nonetheless, the taste is alright and you can consider buying from them if you have cravings for chee cheong fun.
