We were told if we added too much salt, they could add soup for us to balance it out. Halfway through, we enquired if we could get a bit more soup & were told "其实我们这里是不可以加汤的" ("actually you can't just add soup like that")..... So I guess there's a pro-tip for you right there. Add a lot of salt at the start, if you want more soup? 🤷🏻♀️ Seems like it's a matter of principle... There's a first time for everything, I suppose.
In all, a confusing experience & I didn't particularly enjoy the food. The fresh kimchi was pretty good, but that's not enough to make me want to return.
Was looking forward to having some Ox Bone Soup here, per their namesake, but instead was disappointed this didn't feature on their menu.
Ordered 2 soups - Seoul Beef Soup & Half Chicken Soup ($15.90+ each), as I thought in similar fashion, the soups would be good..... They weren't, IMHO. They were very bland. Granted, these soups are made without MSG & you are advised to add your own salt & pepper table-side, but they were overall very lacklustre.
this was really fragrant omg😋 it’s like the almond cream chinese dessert, but less creamy so it’s drinkable
not the cereal i expected but still enjoyable! not too oily too
creamy & doesn’t have the “artificial” salted egg taste. not jelak either!! i had to add a fried egg because…i love eggs…
Sing Ho Hainan Chicken rice is now located at Whampoa Makan Place (#01-77).
It was the chicken rice that operated at the junction of middle road,selegie & short street.
The chicken was decent, meat was tender and tasted fresh. Meat easily slides off the bones.
Chilli was great as well, not too spicy.
Overall a rather decent plate of chicken rice.
($7.50) it's took me a while to try their bencoolen food but good thing that I went there earlier before 12.30 p.m. if the queue getting longer. So I felt that its quite expensive compared to usual fish soup still. The taste for soup broth was quite weird tbh w Tom Yum or milk lol. The mixed fish was quite fresh tbh.
($6?) Depends on what you order from the counter itself and a variety of different noodle and also fresh ingredients to pair well. My friend he order instant noodle w mixed fish to pair with Tom Yum base. Its quite expensive tbh.
($2.50) I felt that their egg tart custard was not that bad and not that hard (decent level) but their outer pastry crust was slightly crispy and crunchy to chew thru.
(Iced - $2) my friend jio me to buy beancurd near parklane shopping ctr. I decided to order grass jelly w soya bean. It's not that sweet tbh but quite refreshing.
So glad to have tried @nickel.sg recently, as their coffee and matcha drinks were simply fantastic 😍 to add on to that, their cafe is also really aesthetic!
The Iced Latte ($7) was a very smooth cup, and it was rich and aromatic. Chocolate and nutty notes were strong, and the milk amount was just nice. Definitely a wonderful blend that is worth sipping!
The Dirty Matcha ($8) was also a flavourful cup. The matcha powder used was of a high quality and hence it was intense and aromatic. The matcha itself was very nutty, almost to the point that it tastes slightly savoury. I actually like this kind of intense matcha and hence it worked out well for me! The Matcha was hand-wisked as well, so it was really smooth 😍 It did overpower the coffee notes quite a bit so maybe it's better to just order the Iced Matcha Latte instead!
Loved the touch of mini Madeleines as well. It was crispy and buttery, perfect with the drinks we got.
Definitely an aesthetic cafe that you should come try! Their desserts look good too!
