Sing Lung HK Cheong Fun
Velvety smooth Chee Cheong Fun
Lets have a look at the street food stall first. Sing Lung located at Beach Road is the place to be when it comes to Chee Cheong Fun, with its chef boasting years of experience in Cantonese and Hong-Kong style cooking. The smooth velvety rice rolls come in four variants, plain, prawn, mushroom or Char Siew.
Kelantan Kway Chap (Berseh Food Centre)
Kway Chap loaded with pork innards
It's time for the hawkers, and Pig organ soup is the main attraction for this this one. Each bowl is sure to please your palate as the cuts of pork and its offal are cooked in a soy based marinade with spices, giving the soup an overall deep and rich flavor.
Hai Nan Xing Zhou Beef Noodles (Kim Keat Palm Market & Food Centre)
Beef noodle soup
Beef noodles, that's what you should expect to have at this hawker. Pick between the blanched rice noodles tossed in thick gravy or soup noodles in a deep and flavorful ox bone broth, both are equally delicious.
Lixin Teochew Fishball Noodles
Fish ball noodle soup
Here's another hawker located in Kim Keat Palm Market & Food Centre, and similar to Hai Nan Xing Zhou, you won't have to crack your head wondering what to order. The handmade fish balls of this stall are springy in texture and loaded with umami, pair this with soup and blanched noodles and you're in for a truly-tasty-time.

Authentic Indonesian cuisine, right here in Singapore. From light bites like their Sate Madura, to full fledged dishes like the Cumi (squid) and Ikan Belado, you can be sure all of them will be exactly to your liking, especially since the sauces and sambal that accompany each dish is made from scratch using a myriad of natural spices.
FOOL

To experience the precise execution and platting of their dishes, try out their Char Siew, which as humble as it may sound, is made with Iberico pork collar that is decorated with braised salsify and a slice of white apple. Other notable dishes include the chicken liver éclair, two pieces of liver, sweetened by dates and Madeira wine.
