Came to this area to collect something, this decided to patronize this old shop that has many many years of history. 

Tan Hock Seng serves great Tau Sar Piahs and Wife's Biscuits. Its Tau Sar Piah comes in either sweet or salty version, I personally prefer its salty version as the pastry itself is somehow sweet, with the salty paste inside, it makes a wonderful match. (5 for $3)

The wife biscuit (5 for $3) is seldom found in Singapore, and this stall serves great wife's biscuit. Its paste is not too sweet and the biscuit is also not too hard. For a price of $0.60 each, its actually very cheap considering its size of the biscuit. 

Tan Hock Seng also sells other kinds of kuehs and pastries like the 'Huat Kweh' ($21 for Big size). And other oldies food. 

The location of the shop is right infront of the new Downtown line (Telok Ayer Stn) which operates from 22 December onwards. Great for those who loves to get nice pastries.

A cheap and good Bee Hoon Stall at Rivervale Plaza Kopitiam. For a plate of bee hoon, with sunny side up and tau kwa and a bowl of Peanut Porridge, it costs only $3! Furthermore, the taste of the food is great! 

The Bee Hoon is fried perfectly, served hot. It is not too stiff, also with some bean sprouts. Nothing much to say about its Sunny Side Up & Tau Kwa. What's special is that they've two kind of sauces for you to add onto your bee hoon - Chilli sauce and Sweet Sauce. What's more? Its self service! Help yourself to as much chilli and sweet sauce as you like! 

As for its Peanut Porridge, for $1.40, you get a big bowl of Porridge, with lots of peanuts included. Definitely a cheap yet delicious bowl of goodness! For those who've yet to try, its worth a try!

Decide to takeaway a pack of Mee Rebus ($4.80) after getting some groceries. 

Disappointed with the Mee Rebus. The amount of ingredients (tau kwa, tau pok) are really very little, the gravy is also very light, not enough taste. As for the noodles, its still considered quite okay, not too soft neither too hard.

They do serve toast and mee siam as well. Their toast is not bad, but would not go back for its $4.80 Mee Rebus. Quality is not there and is a little overpriced.

Decided to takeaway Salad Chicken Rice after shopping at the Sheng Siong Supermarket nearby. 

Their Salad Chicken Rice costs $3.50, which is quite affordable and reasonable. Normally, chicken rice, I'd always accompany it with their chilli sauce, else I'll never ever finish the plate kf chicken rice. But amazingly and surprisingly, for this stall, which is my first time trying, I did not even open the chilli sauce and I finished the whole pack of chicken rice. That shows how good the chicken rice is. 

The rice is well prepared, much tastier as compared to the other chicken rice, also, the colour of the rice is a little bit more grey as compared to other chicken rice stall. And, as for the salad chicken, they fried it only when you order, which makes the chicken much more crispier. 

Although, there are two things that can be improved on. 1) The cucumber slice can be smaller. Their cucumber slice are quite big pieces, also quite stiff and hard. 2) They can have better communication skills and better service. Okay, I know I shouldn't have much expectations from these $3.50 meals, but at least don't talk to other hawkers while preparing and in the end forgotten what's my order.

Okay, I'm actually quite strict while giving feedbacks about Chwee Kuehs, as actually my dad owns a chains of chwee kueh stalls. 

This Serangoon Chwee Kueh is priced at $1.20 for 4pcs, $1.70 for 6pcs and $2.20 for 8pcs, which is a little bit more expensive than the other stalls. 

What's good about this Chwee Kueh is that its less oily and the 'chye poh' is well made, the sugar, salt and other ingredients are well mixed. 

What's bad about this Chwee Kueh is that the kueh is not acceptable to me. The kueh is totally tasteless, that might be also one of the reason why their Chwee Kueh is less oily compared to the other chwee kueh stalls. Another thing is that their chilli is preety normal. 

Nevertheless, the lady boss is quite friendly and polite.
