Their Special Shio Ramen is well-balanced - flavourful yet clean with a nuanced saltiness that doesn't overwhelm your tastebuds or leave you thirsty. It goes really well with their toothsome noodles, and I cleared the entire bowl without realising it. 😅 More importantly, these thick char siu slices adorning the bowl be BUSSIN' HARD! Every slice is not overly fatty and takes on a soft, melt-in-the-mouth consistency, with the rich meaty flavours intensified by a smoky caramelisation from the blowtorch. It's so SHIO-k that I wouldn't mind dropping by for a 2nd bowl despite being a Westie! 🍜

TL;DR: Pair this with Dark Chocolate Sorbet & Triple Biscuit Crunch! 🧇🍨

Spotted their new seasonal Churros Mochi Waffle on their menu. As someone who loves churros very mochi (ok terrible pun bye yall😆🤪), I would have happily wiped the entire waffle with the chocolate sauce even if there was no gelato! Hot and crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside.

Close friends are going to call me out for this but I love a good Dark Chocolate Sorbet. After Hours’ rendition exceeded expectations with an intense (though not overwhelming) dark chocolate decadence and velvety smooth mouthfeel. 🍫While essentially just vanilla ice cream, the Triple Biscuit Crunch gelato adds a textured crunch and a savory treat from the crushed potato chips, pretzels and nestum. 🍪

The Xiao Long Bao was decent which bb enjoyed, though BB felt that the aspic was slightly sweeter than he would have preferred. Skin thickness was alright, and the meat filling texture was among the better ones we have tried thus far.

These baos in the Shanghai Tan Pan-Fried Bun Platter are LEGIT JOOOOICY! Both the pork and prawn buns are packed with well-flavourful & QQ meat filling and brimming with stock like a xiao long bao (which we also ordered), so we were careful not to spurt the broth onto our clothes. We liked the prawn variant more because of the fresh prawns incorporated into the meat filling. Also enjoyed the contrast between the softer & thinner texture of the wrapper and the thicker & crusty base (where the knot is fried) that tasted like a fried mantou.

You can also mix and match the appetiser options in their Appetizer Platter. Their Shanghainese Drunken Chicken features bite-sized pieces with supple skin and subtle tones of Shaoxing wine, and the Black Fungus in Vinegarette is a good option if you want something tangy and spicy!

Unfortunately, I couldn’t say the same for the Tiger Red Bean Paste Bun. While I enjoyed the cosrser texture of the red bean filling, my experience was sadly hampered by the drier bun texture, which clung onto my teeth after a few bites.

THESE ANIMAL SHAPED BAOS ARE THE CUTEST! 🤩 If you are in Chinatown, pop by @dough_magic_official for their assortment of steamed buns, fried doughsticks and flower rolls! For $1.50 per pop, you can get your hands on this derpy-looking Yaya Salted Egg Custard Bun, served piping hot and pillowy from the steamer. 🐤💛The salted egg custard was decently flowy, though it leaned towards the milkier & sweeter side rather than the savory salted egg tones.

Sadly, we didn't get to try the Thai fishcakes which were OOS but we enjoyed their Moo Ping, which comes with sweet savory marinate over the lightly charred and tender pork! Will definitely be back for more!

Pork lovers 🐷-- you got to order the Grilled Pork Jowl. While this is commonly found in most Thai places, NangLen's version stands out from the rest with the smoky flavour, qq texture and the sauce.

Hard to pick a favourite here but if there's one dish you MUST TRY, it's their Tom Yum Mama Regular - this SLAPS so hard that it feels like a mini Jeh O Chula experience! 🔥 We ordered the one person serving and were shook by the generous portion! It's huge enough to feed the two of us with a generous helping of noodles, roast pork slices and seafood! The soup is more zesty than spicy and kicks harder than Tony Jaa. Super drinkable and the staff will TOP UP YOUR SOUP TOO.

While I was pleasantly surprised by the light and savoury cheese foam chantilly filling in the 𝗕𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗦𝗲𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲 🖤 variant, I felt that a more pronounced sesame flavour would have provided more balance. Baked walnut bits add a nice contrasting crunch.

As a matcha lover, I couldn't resist their 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗮 𝗡𝗮𝗺𝗮 𝗖𝗵𝗼𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 🍵 roll! While the chiffon & cream carried subtle earthy matcha notes, it was balanced out by the chunk of nama chocolate which was rich without being exceptionally bitter. Also, the vibrant green colour is always a plus point for me.
