Went on a saturday dinner time around 6.45pm. Expect long queue during dinner time.. especially during fasting month.
Ordered their Ala Carte Australian Beef Pepper Steak (130g) for $20.90 + one free choice of sauce (Cheese sauce, brown sauce and hickory BBQ sauce). Pretty expensive…
I love cheese so I got the cheese steak sauce but it just taste like store-bought cheese sauce which was eh. This Australian steak is on their premium steak menu but I felt that the steak’s cut was too thin and doesn’t really taste high quality to be honest.. I mean.. couldn’t expect a lot from a lunch express food outlet, so that’s that. They could be more generous with the amount of broccoli too as they gave only 2… On a high note, at least the food came piping hot and taste decent.
Will I come back again in terms of steaks? Not really, there are better options as compared to this. Maybe they are known more for their beef/chicken pepper rice but I stopped ordering that.
From past experience, the portion control was not consistent even though I ordered the jumbo size version but the quantity of meats were not justified.
-1 for waiting time ( waited close to 15 minutes to submit my order as there is only one cashier open… )

The yam puff ($2) was not too sweet and the combination of the savoury of the pastry crust and yam works well together! You get both of the best world! I also like that their yam filling does not taste artificial and just plainly sweet like other bakery. You can immediately tell by the color of the yam filling.

Came early today to buy freshly baked breads from here! Last time I came on a sunday late noon, the breads that I want sold out.. (multigrain bread series)
Anyway, went early on sat early noon and managed to get their signature/exclusive Land of Joy bread ($2), Blueberry Walnut bread ($2.70), Cranberry Walnut bread ($2.50).
I tried the blueberry, cranberry walnut breads and yam puff before and it taste soooo good!
Their european breads are soft and I like that their ingredients used in making their bread does not contain artificial sweeteners and eggless! Making it a good choice to have for breakfast, pair up with your protein/fibre meal or just having for tea break!
The auntie at the shop is friendly and recommend you choices if you do not know what to have. Will be visiting them frequently whenever I need my carbs ☺️ please do come down and support them!

Can never go wrong with fried chicken. Crispy and moist with every bite. Good deal for $3.85 @ Lazada app. This is original chicken + (one free flavour of ur choice). Generous amount of chickens too.
Good to have this once a month.

Walk past this donut shop and wanted to give it a try since it has been long since I had a donut.
Not really a fan of donuts in general but decided to go for it anyway. Asked the lady at the counter to recommend some of their best seller, which are the milo and yuzu flavour.
Opt for the yuzu flavour. Honestly, it was overly too sweet and taste artificial.. maybe it is not for me. It might be tasty for you if you have a sweet tooth. For $3, I would say it is alright for the price.. but probably won’t get it again. The donut’s texture is decent though.

Walked past basement 1 of Tampines 1 to get my groceries where I happened to see this pop-up crossiant shop that seems to be popular as I read it one time at Eatbook news I think.
Since there wasn’t any queue, I gave it a try as I love me some good crossiant. There were only a couple of flavours that were available around 5pm on a weekend. If I remember correctly, honey seasalt and strawberry flavours were the best selling as they were 1-2 pieces left.
Honestly, kinda disappointing as the honey glaze overpower entirely and quite sweet... The seasalt taste was not prominent at all too. However, it was flaky on the outside and soft on the inside. One bite and all the flakes dropped.
I’m not sure if I will get the savoury options as the price was expensive.. it was $4.86 for this. It cost $4 above for all of the flavours if I am not wrong. But, do give it a try if you are a crossiant/carbs lover.
Overall, it is a decent crossiant but I probably stick to my plain crossiant from somewhere that is affordable.

Was craving for a good mee chiang kueh and there is one at my local area! It seems to be good as there are good reviews on it.
Went on a weekend late noon and there is no queue. Look at the amount of peanut crumbs!! 😍😍😍 the auntie was so generous and added peanut butter ontop of it.
The pancake was soft and everything goes well together. For $1.10, it was definitely worth the calories 🤤
Will be back whenever I have craving for it!

It was very packed on a Friday dinner time. Managed to get a seat within a few minutes. The arrangement of the seatings are quite close together, considering how small the restaurant is.
Ordered their Premium Buta Don ($16.50- bottom) and Aburi Salmon Don ($14.50- top). Food came decently fast (around 15mins). The Pork Loin was charred perfectly and the meats were thin and tender which I enjoy. There were 4 big slices & few smaller slices. Same goes with the salmon.
Overall, not too bad to have this if you are craving for good quality pork/salmon served with japanese rice. You can never go wrong eating here.

Went down on a sat late noon 4pm. Surprisingly, it was not crowded at all which I enjoy very much. I can have my hot steamed mantou in peace. It was unfortunate that the suntec outlet is permanently closed as I frequent getting their mantous whenever I am near the place.
I ordered the yam, purple sweet potato and banana chocolate. I want to eat the Yam mantou right now as it was my favourite flavour and opt for it in warm.
Really love the softness of the mantou which made this brand popular. The yam filling was not too sweet and decent amount when peel in half.
For the price of $2.40, it is worth investing my money and time to get this mantou whenever I am craving for it. Will be having the rest of the mantous for tomorrow breakfast and lunch 😋
Will be back to get their other flavour options which are the healthier ones ☺️

My all-time favourite Ban Mian at my area ☺️ No wonder every single time I had their ban mian, there will always be customers queuing for the food.
I always ordered their dry pork ban mian (with extra noodles and pork slices - yknow I am a growing boy and I workout too so I need to have more). The noodles is so al dente as they used the noodles machine. It comes with black soysauce and it goes so well when you combine everything together 😍 (must add their chilli for the kick)
A flaw will be that the waiting time can be long if you do not have the patience for it as it can be as close to half an hour or more during peak hour. The vegetables could have been more but you can always add-on like $0.50 for that and other ingredients as well (such as minced chicken, pork, egg, noodles, vegetables).
Tip: Order through Fairprice app where you can advance order and also get 10% discount. However, the timing of the food stated in the app is not accurate at all so do not count on that. I suggest u place order like half an hour in advance as they will take awhile to prepare your order. Also, show your order number to the workers when you reached the stall so they know).
It has always been my go-to hearty noodles to have during weekend whenever I have craving for it.

Very crowded on a late sat noon 3pm+ onwards. Tried their jumbo signature prawn noodles dry. There were like 5 jumbo prawns with shallots, slight sweet sauce(?). It was ok tbh, nothing too special about it. Pretty ex for 13.90. Honestly, I would get the normal version for 6.90 if I come back next time.

Located in a quiet building. Decent amount of people on a sat tea-break time. Tried their avocado toast, smoked salmon, scrambled egg and salad. Overall, it was delicious. Good amount of avocado & egg ratios. However, for the price of $19.9, the salmon could have been more.
