Tanglin Halt is now much quieter than before, especially since the demolition of Tanglin Halt Food Centre and some of its surrounding blocks.Soon, block 49, which this popular Roti Prata shop is located, will be demolished too.

Prata here is great, it's not crispy type, more fluffy and buttery.

The curry here is good as well.

This prata shop feels very retro, something that's hard to find in sg.

+$2 for 2 additional dumplings

Noodles were springy and el dente. Dumplings were meaty & flavourful.

Their char siew is the dry and lean type, so don't expect anything special.

I would say this is a slightly above average WTM.

Tian Xiang Wanton Noodle used to be located at the now demolished Tanglin Halt food centre.

Queenstown Lontong is a popular store at Magaret Drive Hawker Centre. Queues get rather long during weekend breakfasts.

Other than their Lontong, their Mee Rebus also popular here. Everybody in queue; would order Mee Rebus or Lontong.

Mee Rebus was rich in flavours. Gravy was thick and flavourful.

Ikan bilis was excellent. Bergedil was quite good as well

Chicken Chop + Pork Chop + Sausage

Old school western food, large portion. Meats were grilled well, juicy and not dry whatsoever.

Chef Hainanese was previously at Tanglin Halt and have since shifted here to Magaret Drive Hawker.

They only open 2 hours between 7-9pm on Saturday to Wednesdays only. Business is good, with lots of cash notes clipped onto the pole at the ordering counter.

Affordable steak at S$8.00 only @ this old-school Western food hawker stall that serves up an array of Western delights paired with their irresistible signature savoury-sweet sauce! 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Although it may not be the most tender, juicy or premium cut, we still get a decent slab of sirloin with a buttery flavour and lovely char. 🤩

I wanted to try it out after work before covid but then no fated :") I asked my friend stayed at West area but she alr tried it a couple of year ago. So we decided to get sharing chef set 3 ($13) instead. We really like grilled chicken chop (tasted really good and best selling tbh) tbh instead of pork chop (tasted really salty tbh) (can skip for this). I overheard that they added mashed potato inside the chef set 3 bc in the past they don't have inside.

This is the dough type, I wished it was more crisp. Only slightly crispy at the browned edges). Upside is that it quite light, not too greasy. The fish curry is kinda spicy for me, tangy and quite tasty, consistency is not too watery or thick.

Overall thought it was decent, but not queue worthy for me. There’s perpetually a small queue, but it isn’t too long. Has potential tho, maybe I shall try it again. Eating it plain (no curry) was actl not bad, the dough was slightly sweet and fragrant.

Foong Kee was returned, and this time at Commonwealth Crescent Market and Food Centre.

Having eaten at their Keong Saik Outlet before its closure back in 2021. Already expect good food here, and was not disappointed. My other half having this for the first time agreed that the Sio Bak was very good.

Sio Bak excellent. Crispy skin, tender meat.

Char siew with its charred edges was very good too. Meat had a good meat and fat ratio.

Come earlier if u want roasted duck. By the time i came at 12.30pm, no more roasted duck liao

Would have preferred more of a crunch in my popiah but personal preference aside, this was a more than decent roll of popiah.

Finally tried Hammee’s!! It’s good - juicy beef patty with a nice char on the edges, fluffy buttery toasted potato buns, and sweet soft caramelised onions. I wished that it came with pickles by default, I’ll do an add on next time as I felt for the refreshing crunch + sour taste. Satisfied, and even more so at this price point.

The triple cooked fries were also quite nice, was crisp and crunchy.

Comparing it to OFC, I still prefer OFC but Hammee’s burgers are a very good, close alternative too. But OFC’s fries are better, those come with skins on!

Diving into this plate of fish and chips from No. 1 Western Food, after two years of absence.

This old-school Western food hawker stall serves the crispiest fried fish that comes with a thin coating of breadcrumbs and soft, moist flaky meat within.

And the underlying reason that keeps me coming back for more [over the years] is their irresistible special savoury-sweet sauce that goes so well with anything and everything! 🫶🏻
