Welcome to West, Singapore.

My favourite stall to visit whenever I’m dispatched around this area for work. I’ve had their Assam Fish and Pig Trotter Vinegar before which were both scrumptious. Today, feeling a little chilly, I went for their herbal chicken soup, which turned out quite tasty.

A comforting hot bowl of herby goodness that warms the heart, soul, and belly. Generous portion as always. The soup came with a huge drumstick and thigh, which were easy to debone just by biting, with the soup flavour well absorbed into the meat, making it extra juicy and tender. The skin was smooth with a hint of fattiness for some greasiness. The soup itself was clear yet rich in herbal flavour, with veggies and goji berries adding sweetness. The herbs seemed to be properly filtered away before serving, as I couldn’t find any pieces though I admit I’m probably the odd one who actually craves eating the herbs themselves.

I almost never eat spicy food 🌶️ (my tolerance is… infant level at best 😅), but this hawker stall is the rare exception. Some say it’s the best BBQ sambal stingray in the West — and honestly, I swear by it.

Loaded with onions, slathered in generous sambal — intensely fragrant, seriously spicy, and dangerously addictive. 🔥 The stingray and sotong were super fresh, soft, tender and cooked just right.

Worth every bead of sweat and would gladly come back for more. 🤍

A heart full of gratitude and a table full of good food on the last day of 2025. 🤍✨

Reunited with my former colleagues over lunch after 9 long months and stepping back into the school felt so familiar — for just a moment, it was like I never really left.

We shared a spread of seafood dishes 🐙🦐🦀🐟🍕. They kept stuffing me with lots of food (not complaining 😆), especially after finding out I usually skip lunch at work. Everything was fresh, hearty and scrumptious.

So thankful for this rare moment, wonderful company, meaningful catch-ups and all the good vibes. Food really does taste better with people who matter. 😋

Stepping into this place feels like traveling back in time. There’s something about its nostalgic charm — it instantly brought me back to the Eighties, when my mom used to bring my brother & I to the Hainanese coffee houses around town and Bukit Timah. Those familiar feelings paired with the Christmas season, made the moment extra special. 🎄♥️

The festive set lunch comes with classic starters: salad 🥗, soup 🥣 and garlic bread, followed by a pretty Christmas fruit cake drizzled with sweet condensed milk and chocolate sauce.

A special mention to the mussels with white wine and cream — rich, creamy with garlic bits and absolutely wonderful for mopping up with the garlic bread. So good! 😊
