Chunks of crayfish, deep-fried, then topped with a generous sprinkle of crunchy cereal. The perfect blend of savory and crunch! Yums. 😋

Fried sotong [a.k.a. squid] rings coated in the perfect light, crispy batter and paired with a rich, savoury, salty sauce that’s impossible for me to resist!

7 years later and we are back at this zichar place again. Oh, how I missed the delicious food here! First up, we zoomed straight to these succulent lala clams swimming in that irresistible thick eggy, savoury-spicy chilli crab sauce. What a treat it is to dive into the signature chilli crab gravy without messy hands and cracking shells tonight! 🫶🏻

I’ve always been a regular at Xin Yuan Ji’s Bugis branch—it’s been my favorite fish soup spot in Singapore for years. Today, I decided to try their Bukit Batok outlet.

The soup used to have a strong, distinctive charcoal aroma, which added a unique depth to its flavor. While that smokiness is barely noticeable now, the soup still holds up well.

The freshness of the fish slices remains consistently high, and even without the charcoal undertones, the broth is flavorful and satisfying. It’s still a reliable choice for a comforting bowl of fish soup.

Tze char all day everyday!

Visited @jb101firewokzflagship for the first time after bookmarking it on my map for the longest time!

They were having some promotion for fried fish at $2.90 only!!

Other dishes we ordered:
- salted egg spare ribs $15
- stir fried tanghoon $6
- charcoal claypot hokkien noodles $8.90

Loved that there was no bones in the pork ribs!
Would have preferred if the claypot hokkien noodles were the wetter kind though.

No GST and service charge here

Found a new XO Fish head beehoon place!

Super fragrant soup! They have option of fish head or fish meat. However, only fried fish option is available (sliced fish option not available)

Small bowl $8

Comes in generous big sizes of pork ribs even I got the small serving. Tasty sweet sauce and accompanied by some achar.

I find their version of spicy sweet potato leaves is more wetter here. But still spicy enough to enjoy.

Ban Tong Seafood is well-known among the Clementi residents, as they has been here for many years.

We gotten the small portion of their sliced fish in spring onion & ginger sauce. But still more than enough for 3 person.

The sliced fish meat is soft and tasty.

Chilli crab sauce lala [clams] not crabs — I get to dip my fried mantou into the same eggy, spicy tomato-based gravy without messy hands or cracking shells tonight! 🫶🏻

This well-loved eatery serving an array of authentic Penang-style dishes, is just a stone’s throw away from my workplace.

Even so, the classic Penang dessert is easily my favourite item from their menu — Refreshing bowl of shaved ice topped with coconut 🥥 milk, sweet gula melaka syrup, pandan jelly and soft red beans 🫘. What’s not to love?

Family bonding time! 🫶🏻

Getting messy and our hands dirty — cracking the crustacean shells to devour its succulent, meaty flesh & mopping up the moreish eggy, spicy tomato-based sauce with the fried buns for a glorious finishing to the meal. 🏅
