This home-grown traditional popiah brand has been serving handmade popiah since 1958 โจ
Started out as a push cart stall and now with 10 outlets islandwide, their new outlet is located within Sim Lim Square. The establishment is also Muslim-friendly and affordably priced ๐ธ

Canโt visit without trying their handmade popiah ๐ฏ The signature item is packed with delicious crunchy turnip fillings and crunchy bits for added textural contrast. I like that their popiah skin isnโt too thick but is still substantial enough to hold all the ingredients together ๐ฅบ Also available with chicken cutlet and prawn.

Exclusive to Sim Lim Square only, the flavourful laksa is chopped into bite size pieces ๐ The thick white beehoon comes with prawn, fish cake, taupok and shrimp chilli paste. Value for money!
(update: heard that there were some tweaks made to the broth based on customer feedback)
Also had one of their staples kueh pie tee. Crispy pastry shell filled with turnip fillings.
Overall, a good place to find quick and affordable meals and snacks. You can also purchase their DIY sets for your own popiah party!
First time trying their waffles. We had the chicken cutlet ๐ one which was well-complemented with the sweet savoury combination of sauces. Apart from the satisfying savoury waffle, they also have other assorted flavours that you can find in a typical neighbourhood waffle spot (blueberry, kaya, peanut butter) and ice cream waffles ๐ง

Have you heard of this spot that sells affordable dishes from only $1.90 ๐ธ๐ฅน
Previously located at Serangoon Garden, Nic & Tom Eatery has since shifted to Chinatown.
I had the seafood cheese beehoon in their previous location and this time round, we decided to try the scallop cheese beehoon. It comes with a generous portion, including prawns and succulent scallops ingredients. This fusion dish is quite unique and thereโs no in between for this: you either love it, or hate it ๐คญ
First time trying this type of offal ($9). It has quite a chewy texture. Apart from the more unusual swirly intestine, the eatery also sells pig intestine ($8) which is on the fattier side ๐ท

If you're on a budget, get the tuckshop rice with crispy pork lard and egg ๐ณ

Appreciated how the signature bun remained crispy even after we took some time to take pictures of the food.

Even though the shop only serves one dessert, they do it well. Would recommend trying their creme brรปlรฉe. The ee fu noodle also comes with a good amount of ingredients. However, we did find the beef slices in the beef bowl rather tough and flower tea a little too sweet for our liking. Overall, some hits and misses.

With a price tag of $48, this elevated laksa dish features fresh lobster with crispy beancurd skin. This is applicable for the 1-for-1 burpple deal. Instead of the typical thick white beehoon, they substituted it with capellini. Though we enjoyed the sweet meaty lobster ๐ฆ we felt that the laksa broth could have been more flavourful. Donโt forget to add in the house-made sakura ebi sambal ๐ฅ
Simmered for over 36h in iberico pork bone and seafood, the rich umami-filled gravy is served alongside this massive plate of ๐๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐๐ป ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๆ็้ป็ชๅคง่พๆฒณ็ฒ็ (๐จ.๐ฃ. $๐ฏ๐ด.๐ต๐ฌ). Suitable for 3 pax, this dish comes with XL prawns, iberico pork, squid and scallops. The crispy deep fried hor fun added a crunchy texture, and we certainly enjoyed the smoky notes. Read till the end for limited time promotion!

From now till 15 Aug, enjoy their signature Hor Fun King at 50% off! If you're visiting alone, fret not as they have 1 pax portions for the hor fun too.
Filled with ingredients, the flavourful omelette is a nice addition to our meal! Would order this again when I revisit ๐
