This Yong Tau Foo has a perpetual queue and its not hard to decipher. Of course all the items are prepare fresh in house, replenished frequent and stacked sky high in the display area. I have tried the laksa today but usually i will go for their infamous clear soup broth. The clear soup base resonant a combination of high quality ikan bilis, soy bean. The ikan bilis and soy bran combo is even available along with fried chopped garlic oil at the collection area for you to add to your soup. Besides all that, you definitely have to try the chee cheong fun. It's fresh and only very limited quantity each day.
If no one informed me, I would have never know that this curry is made with mock meat. It has that lard-y smell and taste of lamb curry that is so distinctive. The pooratha is prepared fresh to order. It comes to your table hot and most important of all, crispy! Pardon me, cause in my books it is detrimental when pooratha is served soggy!
I have succumb to my curiosity and decided to try the cult favourite of Old Tea Hut's Gula Melaka Tea. My hesitation was only because I take my tea/coffee sans sugar. I always feel the sweetness distract the taste buds from experiencing the genuine aroma and flavor of the tea leaves/coffee bean. Anyways..... Putting the engulfing sweetness aside, the signature depth of Old Tea Hut's brewed tea was not lost. Its some how manage to prevail amongst the blanket of evaporated milk and gula melaka syrup. A soft balance of tanin and coconut-y after taste that lingers. A must try for those who prefer their tea with that extra oomph! Warning: Old Tea Hut is notorious for their long queue even at odd hours of the day. Beats me!

This is not your run of the mill lontong. Its prepared by a local Chinese family. Yes. You heard me right. Their menu include Lontong, Mee Siam and Mee Rebus. First of all, the coconut broth is creamy and robust yet not over powering. The stewed trio of vegetable (cabbage, carrot and long beans) is cooked till tender but not mushed up. Tau kwa is fried perfectly. Rice cake and hard boiled egg is prepared fresh. Last but not least, the gem is the sambal that sits on top it all. When mixed into the coconut broth it renders that oh-so-subtle sweetness besides the spicy kick. Must try!

found the banana overly hard, yet still a worthy dimsum dish. it's finally Friday. an almost jammed packed week with tastings, meetup, basketball, blogging and work. quite an achievement
Child hood favourite of all time! I used to come here every Sunday when I was little. Undoubtedly soft and silky θ±θ±. This stall runs for 3 generations. One small bowl will cure you of all troubles and worries. Not to mention its only 70 cents!
Who would have guess in a place that serves top notch soups can serve up a brownie that is worth coming back for?
Who doesn't like a big cup of frothy milky green tea latte? Starbucks is already gear up for the festive season. Check out their Christmas theme mugs and thermos.
How fancy can a simple man's food be? Well, once you douse it in truffle oil and blanket it under heaps of Parmesean cheese, you can. Warning. Its extremely addictive.
Who doesn't like a big bowl of comforting risotto? This Italian version of a grittier congee is bound to please many. Jamie's version definitely doesn't disappoint. First sense is the aromatic whiff of the wild mushroom that is inviting as well as engulfing then your first taste would be the woody, yet hearty taste of the mushroom risotto. Makes you wanna go, aaahhhhh..... I ordered the dinner portion because i know the small portion is enough to fill the left side is my tummy. Lol.
