If you want both carbs as well as proteins, pasta and Chicken Chop will be a good choice. The meal comes with an egg as well as a choice of sauce. The Aglio Olio texture was Al Dente and the cripsy skin layer of the chicken chop goes well with the savoury brown sauce.

Har cheong gai burger ($6.90) 🍗 7/10

Unless you unhinge your jaw, you'll have to eat this deconstructed. Two huge pieces of fried chicken lie between the buttery buns. I would prefer for a stronger prawn paste taste but for this portion, it'll do.

Salted egg chicken burger ($7.50) 🍗 7/10

Again, this came with 2 huge slices of chicken. It was drizzled in salted egg sauce -- the moreish, thick kind, at that. Sadly, I'd appreciate a lot more sauce because it got a little dry towards the end.

Fish and chips ($6.90) 🐟 8/10

I'm in love with the huge portions here! Everything I ordered is is so worth it! The fish comes in two humongous crispy pieces -- well enough to go with your medium cut fries.

Don't get their coleslaw though, as you can see it's just cabbage with mayo on top.

Pulled pork cheese fries ($5.50) 🍟 9/10

Once again, this dish wowed me with it's huge portion and tender CHUNKS of pulled pork. The crispy fries are best shared between 3-4 people.

Creamy truffle bacon ($9.90) 🍝 6/10

I wouldn't say this was outstanding but I wouldn't say it was that bad for coffeeshop pasta either. They certainly added lots of cream inside but it could use a lot more flavour. Not a hint of truffle!

Among the fusion items, we decided to try the Har Cheong Gai Burger which came as a shock (in a good way). The towering burger had, not one, but two massive pieces of Har Cheong Gai that the toasted buns could hardly contain. We could only eat it layer by layer, but it was definitely a brilliant idea to sandwich some coleslaw in between for a tad of fresh crunchiness, while also to hide the raw taste of the coleslaw for people who don’t enjoy it on its own like me. Thought the taste of the prawn paste could have been more evident though. Not to the extent of an exciting dish, but definitely value for money. Served with shoestring fries.

Tucked away in a coffeeshop in the Bukit Batok neighborhood, @bestin_sg is your wallet-friendly western good stall with a touch of fusion element on the menu.

As a snack priced at $5.50, we thought the pulled pork cheese fries was probably good for 2 to share since we had only a main. But look at the portion, what a wishful thinking. 😂 It was, in fact, good for 3-4 people to share! Not only were they generous with the shoestring fries, but there were also substantial chunks of tender pulled pork loaded on the nacho cheese and mayonnaise-drizzled fries. While the pork wasn’t heavily marinated, its savory, smoky flavours rounded off the cheesiness nicely. Gotta eat it quick before it turns soggy with the amount of sauces! Sinful, or not?

a chance find around the Bukit Batok neighbourhood! Cheap, good, and incredibly generous with portion size. Food items are generally good but here’s featuring the jaw-droppingly amazing fries! Laden with an incredibly huge serving of pulled pork fries, mayo sauce and nacho cheese sauce. It could well be a meal in itself, if not for the fact that it’s too fattening and sinful 🙊
