Blk 85 Fengshan Food Centre | Ah Balling Peanut Soup
First off, sorry for the pretty unaesthetic picture - I was too hungry! And also, this smells so good. We've heard about this store for quite some time now, and we finally tried it for ourselves. Since there are many reviews on the fillings of the rice ball, I did not include a bitten version of the rice ball, instead I'd focus on the texture (its the most important component of tangyuan isn't it?!) We ordered 6 rice balls with the peanut soup base.
Contrary to the clear soup that is often served with, Ah Balling served a generous portion of peanuts in each bowl. The handmade peanut soup had a strong and flavourful peanut taste. This traditional dessert served was so chewy and as soon as I realise it, I've already eaten 4 tangyuans leaving the bf with just two. Anyways, I repeat, the rice balls were so chewy. It was almost that you could taste the perfect mixture of the glutinous dough. The first bite of the rice ball has the rich peanut oozing out all over in my mouth. This bowl really took me by surprise by how suitable and comfortable it was as a dessert dish after a heavy meal.
There are four soup bases, peanut, almond, ginger and longan to choose from. The five different rice ball flavors were peanut, red bean, matcha, yam and sesame.
Priced at just $3 for 6 glutinous rice balls with their generous soup base, we give it a rating of 9/10! It was ULTRAAAA vfm!

CHAI CHEE PORK PORRIDGE BLK 85 FENGSHAN FOOD CENTRE
Hey yall! Enough of the bakchormees here The congee is the real deal here. It is one best congee we've ever had. Even though it is probably more common as a breakfast item, we ordered this for our.
It was the bestest choice. It was rich in flavor despite its seemingly plain color, and they are so generous in their portion. The effort made into cooking each individual porridge bowl, the tenderness of the pork, the fragrant sesame oil richly seeping deeper into the porridge was really stunning. it was such a comfort food for our tummy. The pork congee was thick and cooked to a perfect consistency, even reminding the mister of his mom's homemade porridge when he was young. The option for adding 50c for an egg is definitely a great choice, adding a creamy texture to the perfect comfort food. Overall it was cheap, filling, rich in flavour and truly a comfort food.
The mister gave it a ratings of 8/10 (or so I derived from seeing how he enjoyed it) haha! we conclude that this pork porridge bowl that cost $3.50 was super VFM.
