Opened for a day after its big move out of Ang Mo Kio Avenue 10, Next Door Deli is now situated at Compass One at Sengkang (formerly Compass Point). Serving a slightly more concentrated menu as compared to their previous outpost at Ang Mo Kio โ€” more similar to the initial offerings when they first started operations (e.g. Wok-Fried Dry Mee Siam, Grilled Chicken Chop etc.). One of the long-standing items on. Their menu is this Wok-Fried Dry Laksa that comes with their signature Chicken Wing (they never are kidding about how good this is), fish cake, sliced tau kua and shrimp. While the condiments are nothing much to talk about especially how lacklustre the dry tau kua was, the chicken wing was served hot; crisp without a thick coat of batter and especially juicy that it spurts when one takes a bite. Noodles had a nice rempah spice flavour; not as Lemak as the usual Laksa but flavourful considering its wok-fried and dry; add some chili from the collection area if you are into having a savoury touch and some spiciness. I have visited the old Next Door Deli outlet a couple of times, and I must say that the quality of the food here hasn't really changed much from my last visit โ€” there are also familiar faces amongst the staff. Definitely one place that I wouldn't mind dining at in Compass One; the chicken wing is to die for!

PS: If you love Pine Garden's cakes and live in Sengkang; there is one right at Compass One just beside Next Door Deli.
