Good value meal for the price with their generous amount of flavourful chicken (though sometimes served cold), grainy and flavourful rice, served with achar. Usually order with their chicken liver (+0.50), no metallic taste so I enjoy this a lot
Always one of my go-tos in Alexandra Village despite their snaking queue

They are back with their claypoooots (only on weekdays)! But that said, the taste seems subpar than how it used to be
Still creamy but lacking on the spice punch (chili sauce is readily available tho) and gravy is a bit watered down
Queue can still get long, while service is tad bit slow

First time in the far West, and would not miss the chance to have this bang for the buck loklok
Priced at $1 per stick, you are presented with a wide variety of choices. Each stick is glazed lightly, which works for me as taste is not too overpowering. Each item is deep fried but not overly oily as well
Comes with some sauces, including chili and condensed milk. Heard their salted egg sauce is nice, but yet to try

Not feeling well today and craving for this?? Lol. My taste preference clearly has changed over years ๐
This dish has a very comforting sour/hot broth that can whet oneโs appetite. Generous thin fish slices were perfectly poached and has a silk-like plump texture. Serving is huge as well, good for group sharing
This place still gets easily crowded with their decent pricing and decent authentic food

Out of the few restaurants in ARC, this place has never attracted me for no reason. But so surprised when I finally tried it (was forced to by colleague lol), as itโs not bad at all!
First time trying a rougamo and I loved it. Ordered the basic pork variant, and the buns are super flaky, matching really well with the savoury and juicy pork filling. This is surprisingly filling as well though the size looks quite unassuming
They have set meals but have been ordering their rougamos so far

Woke up and decided to try a different variety (only on size lol) of kaya toast today
Not sandwiched and presented differently, this bread has kaya spread on top. Despite being thick, the bread is still nicely toasted yet still soft. Enjoyed the generous spread of kaya, though can be quite jelak after a few bites. Pair with teh or kopi!

Craved for some chocolate cake and good thing we chanced upon this cafe! Ordered their chocolate ganache, and though there was a promise of lava, the supposed oozing chocolate was slightly thick - but enjoyed it still with its richness. Served with really smooth vanila ice cream, and with choco dressing and blueberries on the side. Overall sweetness is to my liking :)
Plus points for the really cozy atmosphere despite being situated in Chinatown

There were no beef kebabs available, and though quite hesitant (due to our number of misses from other places) to get their lamb, we did and we werenโt disappointed
Lamb kebab was really tender and well-spiced, and there was no hint of gaminess at all. This was partnered with buttery pilaf rice and some greens. Good to partner with our hummus side order as well

Really smooth and creamy pureed chickpeas with tahini, generously spiced with cumin. Every hummus order comes with freshly cooked puffed up, lightly seasoned pita
Always prefer slightly oily hummus, making the texture and taste richer, and this one is just ๐๐ป for me

Last dish from my Brio series! Lol. Creamy carbonara served with turkey bacon, edamame and leeks. Nothing new except for the tempura crisps giving a good textural bite
Overall a decent place with reasonable pricing :)

Only appreciated it post-reheat, as we were already so full!
Thick beef ragout with mushroom toppings and generous parmesan shavings. Tying all these together is their flavourful basil pesto
Enjoyed the dish but nothing specially notable

Very rich tomato and seafood taste from this risotto. Rice were cooked to perfection and not mushy at all. Served with some fresh and plump shrimps and topped with, yet again, my favorite greens - rockets lol
*Canโt seem to find the exact risotto that they served to us that time from the menu now, as this doesnโt have scallops nor edamame
