Along with a friend, i had a Sunday lunch at Thai Gold.The ambiance is a very basic. Lol, I am not even sure it qualifies as ambiance. But, we were just looking for some tasty food and we found it.

The service was straight-forward. They are not going to ask you how your day is going but they are going to make sure your order is taken and your food is brought out in a timely manner.

The crispy calamari was very good. Almost immediately, I polished this off. It was crispy. It did not have an oily flavor and the calamari was tender with a mild flavor.My main was a chicken dish with lots of black pepper. It was so flavorful. The veggies were fresh and NOT over-cooked. So, they helped cut through the black pepper. I thought it made for a great lunch.My friend had a vermicelli dish. It didn't look like much but she didn't seem to mind. She joyfully ate it all.We shared some greens. By this I mean, I had a bite and my friend ate the remaining. These were perfectly cooked and quite flavourful.Overall this is a basic restaurant with basic service and pretty good Thai food. If you are in the neighbourhood and need lunch, I can give it a two thumbs up.

Bak Koot Teh... (Meat Bone Tea) is something really confusing for me. There was a time I was really naive thinking this is really a tea and of course I realize now it is really a soup.

A soup suppose to eat in the morning? As breakfast? But Sin Hen is open from 7:30 am - 4:30 am so I guess any time is good for Bak Koot Teh.

We shared a Hokkien's style BKT which was quite bland in taste with no complexity but I love the fresh chopped chili I can just sprinkled all on top of my soup. I could not really taste the herbal taste in the broth much. Maybe the Teochow has a better kick since it is more peppery?

Good food for the price paid. Food tasted fresh although they were slightly cold compared to what I would have preferred.These ladies make the world a better place. Anyone that can fit that much delicious goodness into that small of a package deserves a raise. Go here. Order the Big Chicken Bao (pictured). Enjoy. Then order another. I would crawl out of bed late at night just to fix my bao craving.

They also offer a few other boa buns and dumplings but I couldn't get past the Big Chicken Bao.
2 sitting options: choose to sit in the air-conditioned restaurant but be subjected to GST or choose to rough it out along the street seats and have tax exempted.

A Rojak legacy of more than 30 years!!

My parents love have bought rojak from this stall ever since before I was born.The uncle is still running it and running it well. It's the rojak I was raised on.

This rojak sauce is good, the ingredients are all cut into nice little bite sized pieces so you can enjoy more sauce per square centimeter of food and it's cheap. I think it's still $2. Decent helping too! It's hard to find such a deal now with constant price hikes.

The uncle is always all smiles and I hope this stall stays on for a long time. Business is good pretty much all the time and you might need to queue during dinner time.

I've always had a soft spot for Avocados. So it's no surprise how I went crazy when I saw the chains of avocados fruit juice stores at Alexandre Food Market, just next to IKEA. The most famous outlet of them all is "Mr Avocado" -- where his pureed goodness has received rave reviews from tons of newspaper articles. Titled "liquid gold", Mr Avocado's smooth, creamy, rich goodness costs onlt $2.50. After your purchase, the uncle will told me "" (you will get addicted) - damn right I did. My friend and I went on to purchase one more cup each to take away. Upon the second purchase, he repeated the same chinese phrase to our amusement.

I also tried their soursop -strawberry drink which was extremely rich, rather sweet, but extremely satisfying, especially on a hot sweltering day. The durian puree drink is pretty good too, since durians and cream do go very well - a sure favourite for all durian-lovers. There are many more healthy juices on his menu, do be sure to try them all.
