Wow West
PRICE: $6.50 (or $6.90?) + $2.20 for curly fries and soup combo
WAITING TIME: 11 mins on a weekday after 1pm
REMARKS:
- The tomato pasta serving is so generous!
- Hamburg was tasty and of a good size, but could be juicier, and I'll prefer to have it with some kind of sauce
- Curly fries maintained their crispness throughout the meal
- Soup was a bit of a letdown - too gooey, clumpy, no sight of the ingredients, no clue what soup is it actually (potato? mushroom?)
- Will order the pork belly hotplate again but probably not this one
PRICE: $8.90
WAITING TIME: 11 mins on a weekday after 1pm
REMARKS:
- Seriously tender and thick slabs of sous vide pork belly!
- Fragrant garlic rice that goes well with pork belly and the sauce
- Manned by two young guys
Add Remarks:
This hawker centre is split into two levels, with the hipster section on the upper floor. Settled here because there was almost no social distancing observed on the first floor -- old people taking up seats across one full row of tables and intermingling urgh.
Food on the second floor are hip and slightly pricier, hence less crowd and there were ample seats.
PRICE: $7.90 for waffle with ice cream
WAITING TIME: No queue to enter, no queue at the counter when we went at 2.30AM on a weekday
REMARKS:

- Crispy on the outside, but not burnt
- Found ourselves enjoying it more than their chili dog and burgers
PRICE: $6.50 Sous Vide Chicken Olio

WAITING TIME: Slightly more than 5 min on a weekend mid-day
REMARKS:
- Fries are not great. Not crispy. But at least they are not salty.
- Love the spicy fried chicken. The skin was so good, it remained crispy even at the end of the meal (I always save the best for the last). And that mild, enjoyable spiciness. Chicken was juicy, not dry like at Popeyes.
- The gravy is a great accompaniment.
WILL WE RETURN? YES

SERVICE: The uncle was really nice!

- Nice prawn paste batter
