Hidden Gem In Tampines A must-go eatery if you are in Tampines! Just a short walk away from Tampines MRT station, FPC seafood is a cozy eatery with a friendly lady boss who always greets me with a big smile! Each dish is made with loads of love and sincerity by the male chef boss! Their fried chicken strips and pineapple slices are a match made in heaven! Although they are fried, the chicken strips are not greasy at all! Check the lettuce leaf underneath the chicken - no oil stain! Don’t forget to dip the chicken in the home-made plum sauce! Yum yum!! Their fried chicken in salted egg sauce is also another favourite of mine! You know you have chanced upon a great eatery when they serve you 排骨王 (sweet sour pork chop) that’s tender with perfectly caramelised sauce! Oh don’t forget to order their hor fun! Do a takeaway if possible as it tastes even better after the hor fun has taken a soak in the sauce! My parents said the hor fun reminded them of the delicious hor fun they had when they were young! This hidden gem at Blk 267 is very much like my second home, except their food is much more delicious :)) Make your way there now!!!

From left to right: Lervig Lucky Jack, Hofbräu München Original, Matso's Lychee Beer, and Matso's Hit the Toad The small cafe stocks a rotation of carefully curated craft beers that will go down great with any of its dishes. We had the Lervig Lucky Jack, Hofbräu München Original, Matso's Lychee Beer, and Matso's Hit the Toad. Lervig Lucky Jack is the perfect beer to combat the sweltering heat of Singapore with the revitalizing flavors of grapefruit and citrus fruits. Hofbräu München Original is a classic German lager with refreshing, bright and bitter flavors that make it really easy to drink. Matso's Lychee Beer carries a syrupy sweet fragrance of lychees with a sticky mouthfeel with an aftertaste of canned lychee syrup that lingers. Matso's Hit the Toad is rather malty with a delicately sweet taste of corn.

Homemade Bread 4nett With extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar (brownies not included) Perfect bread that was nicely chewy inside and crispy on all surfaces(not only the crust) Went at 1pm and they were already sold out. Given its the last lunch it's not entirely unexpected but still selling out in 1 hour is amazing

The End Of An Era I knew I had to visit “Ah Bong’s Italian” one more time before Chris moved on to his next venture. Having been really busy of late, it’s only today, on his last day of operations, that I made it. The place was packed as many customers came to have one more dose of his style of Italian cooking. We started with the Comfort Eggs, that simple but very appetising combination of wobbly soft eggs with sausage, mushrooms sautéed in garlic and topped with grated cheese. This has been such a popular must-have that whenever you arrived late, the risk of having it sold out was high. After some deliberation, the two pastas we went with were the Sausage Pomodoro, a straight-up Italian dish and the Shoyu Burro, a fusion creation with Japanese soya sauce, Danish butter, chicken, chili and vegetable. Both were part of the amazing value lunch sets (inclusive of a drink and dessert) priced at $12 and $16 respectively, Thanks again Chris for giving us tasty and very reasonably-priced pastas and other items all these years! I am sure there are many who still remember having their first taste of @ahbongsitalian at your coffeeshop hawker stall in Tiong Bahru.

Tiong Bahru // Pasta PRICE: Crabby aglio olio $12, Mushroom carbonara with truffle oil $8 WAITING TIME: Less than 10 minutes So well cooked, so flavorful. Pretty generous with the crabmeat and garlic.

I finally eat you! A different feel eating here - uncles milling around, rushing to ask you to order drinks and delivering fishball noodles to the wrong table. Cheese smell of the carbonara was strong which I like, and the roasted pepper pesto pasta was special, tasted kinda like a heavier, more aromatic bolognese (actually it's roasted peppers and nuts i guess? :D) Heng they ran out of penne, and not their linguine!

Warm Bath & Spicy Zucchini Ah Bong's Italian is a gem for those who constantly crave affordable yet delicious pasta (I'm one of 'em!)
