mee pok affair OK Dec 31, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Singaporean Chinese | Coffeeshop | Noodles

This store is located within the parking area at one of the corner coffeeshop. Apparently there's another shop by the same name in the yellow row of shops but the white sign one is the nicer stall. Well i suppose it has to be good when it's full even with the rain.

If you are a fussy eater like me, you don't get much of a choice here. There is only 1 dish and it comes with fishball, fishcake and pork slices and that's it. I don't even get to add meatballs to the mix.

On first look, the dish looks really plain. This is the chili version and it appeared really harmless. That impression didn't last long. The sauce is well balanced with vinegar and the chili is kick ass after a few mouthfuls. I can take spicy and this is alright to me, ask for less if you can't take the heat.

The noodles are crunchy and nice but they dry up after a while. My trick to eating dry noodles is to pour a little soup in now and then to maintain the moisture of the noodles so that they don't stick together in a lump.

The fishballs are bouncy and salty (just the way i like it). The pork slices are also very tender and well cooked. Too long and the noodles become too soggy and the fishballs dry and hard etc etc etc. Anyhow, the conclusion is that this is an awesome bowl of mee pok!

sinful night of calories OK Dec 18, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Malay | Coffeeshop

this is my 2nd favorite supper place in Bukit Timah apart from Al Azhar.
The setting is very similar to all the other coffeeshops in the area: very noisy, always full of activity and huge. The servers are always running around and if you're not used to eating in such a place, you might want to try somewhere more quiet. But I always love coming to this place to create a din with my pals!
Anyway, my favorite dish here is the mutton nasi briyani. Tender mutton, and wonderfully tasty rice.

 
Another one of my favorite dishes is the butter chicken, which is extremely thick and creamy. I am actually salivating as I'm typing this. This goes very well with the excellent naan served at this place.
I always top off my extremely sinful supper with a good dose of milo Godzilla, which is basically just good old iced milo topped with tons and tons of milo powder and probably other very sinful sugary stuff. In short, if you want to eat here, you'd better prepare to run a mini marathon the next day to burn off all the excess calories.

chinese nasi lemak  OK Dec 10, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Malay | Hawker Centre

Whampoa is a trove for great food, and this stall counts as one of those that should be checked out.
This is at the food centre side of Whampoa, not the market side.
There is somewhat a perpetual line at this stall, but the line does move fast.
Chinese-styled, you get to pick from a variety of dishes to heap atop your rice, although you are welcomed to go for the usual ikan billis, chicken wing, cucumber and egg as well. The selection is plentiful and ranges from the fried processed favourites, such as luncheon meat and sausages, to more home-cooked options. My personal favourites are the squid and curry vegetables.

Besides the fragrant rice, the sambal at this stall really stands out as well. Sweet and not overwhelming spicy, this marries perfectly with a small portion of ikan billis.

 
A good plate of nasi lemak. I will eat it if I am around the vicinity, but it is not enough for me to crave for it.

hawker centre pub OK Nov 30, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Hawker Centre

 
The good beer company is a very special hole-in-the-wall hangout which serves an excellent choice of beer. Vastly different from the many pretentious "breweries" and bars in Singapore, it is situated in a hawker center in the center of Chinatown. A definite must-try , since it provides a unique setting to drink great beer in a very local setting. The only drawback is that the hawker center is well, a hawker center, and on hot days, it does get hot. And let's face it, the hawker center is not exactly representative of SIngapore's clean reputation. But drinking a beer there on a rainy day...ah, there's no place like that.

thomson famous bak chor OK Feb 19, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Coffeeshop | Noodles

Meng Kitchen is one of the more famous bak chor mee stalls around, and being a huge bak chor mee fan, I knew that I had to give this place a spin to find out what all the fuss is about, despite the fact that I don't even live in the area.
I arrived during off peak hours and managed to get my bowl of noodles without having to wait for too long. I opted for mee pok since this is my preferred type of noodles. The noodles came fluffy and sufficiently chewy, and not at all soggy. I really enjoyed the noodles a lot. The base contained vinegar and of course chili sauce, and the combination of the two (with probably some secret ingredients) gave rise to one of the most satisfying bowls of bak chor mee I have ever eaten. The icing on the cake was the very generous portion of minced pork and liver; I have always felt that some stalls tried to make their food seem nicer by limiting the serving size, but apparently that is not the practice. Do come here if you want to taste what a really good bowl of bak chor mee should taste like.
