Hill Street Tai Hwa Pork Noodle – One Michelin-starred bak chor mee in Singapore

Was doing grocery shopping at Golden Mile Complex and decided to pop by Crawford Lane for bak chor mee. Ever since Hill Street Tai Hwa Pork Noodle received one Michelin star rating last year, I hadn’t been back and I thought it was about time for a revisit. Hill Street Tai Hwa Pork Noodle Blk […]

OPPA Chicken opens express outlet at Ang Mo Kio coffeeshop – Bringing K.F.C. to the heartlands

Not the fast food brand but Korean Fried Chicken. This Broadway Kopitiam at Blk 721 Ang Mo Kio Ave 8 is now one of my favourite coffeeshops in Ang Mo Kio because it houses food stalls that offer a pretty good range of different cuisines like Astons Express (affordable, tasty Western food), Ci Wen Vegetarian […]

Mr Teh Tarik Ang Mo Kio – Fried fish soup is the best but their zi char stall is also worth trying

I shared the below picture on Instagram last year. “I always like the fish soups from Arcade and Maxwell Market & this one is also quite on par if not better. For just $4.50, it comes with an incredibly generous portion of fried fish, chye sim, tomatoes and silken tofu. The broth is laden with […]

Kim Heng Roasted Meat @ Serangoon Avenue 4

I got to know about Kim Heng (HK) Roasted Delights while watching a travel vlog on YouTube and I realised this roasted meat stall was actually located in the same coffee shop that I would always pass by when getting a bus home from NEX. Last month, I stopped by Serangoon Central as Teochew Meat […]

Yut Kee Restaurant has been serving up traditional Hainanese fare since 1928. It is one of the oldest kopitiam names in KL and is also one of the most popular breakfast places to go to for both locals and tourists. It was previously located along Jalan Dang Wangi (just a right-angled turn from its current […]

The New Imbi Market @ ICC Pudu, Kuala Lumpur

The old Imbi Market used to be situated on Jalan Melati, Imbi in Kuala Lumpur. Just five months ago, the market had moved to its new home and current premise at ICC Pudu. Perhaps many would regard that as a welcomed move as at the new premise, there would be improved infrastructure and a cleaner […]

Uncle Penyet Fusion @ Ang Mo Kio Avenue 6

Couple of weeks ago, I passed by Blk 728 Ang Mo Kio Ave 6 (beside Broadway Plaza and opposite the McDonald’s at Ang Mo Kio Town Garden West) when I headed to the library and was surprised to see that the old coffeeshop that used to house two of the best eats in the neighbourhood […]

Takagi Ramen @ Ang Mo Kio Central – Bringing affordable ramen to the heartlands

Seriously, I would never expect to see authentic Japanese ramen being served in a coffeeshop located at ground level of a HDB flat in Ang Mo Kio. J and I were supposed to have our lunch from Astons Express at the same coffeeshop but we changed our mind after we spotted this new ramen stall. […]

West Grill Station Yio Chu Kang @ Blk 630 Ang Mo Kio Avenue 4

I used to think this stall space in my neighbourhood coffeeshop was jinxed probably due to bad fengshui or something because all the previous stalls (lost count of how many) did not last more than a few months each. Until a few months back when West Grill Station opened that I realised how much life […]

Day and Night Bistro @ Tiong Bahru

This place was formerly known as Two Face Pizza & Taproom but it closed last December after two years in business. Now, Day and Night runs on the same concept – it is a regular coffee shop that houses Ah Bong’s Italian and also serves up local favourites like yong tau foo by day; it then […]

Hong Ji Claypot Bak Kut Teh 宏记药材肉骨茶 @ Ang Mo Kio Ave 4

A recent exploration of the Ang Mo Kio neighbourhood led me to discover this herbal bak kut teh stall just a few bus stops away from my house and then I realised later this was the same BKT brand (main branch is at Marsiling Lane) that fellow foodie friends had recommended me some time back. […]

Ocean Curry Fish Head @ Toa Payoh Lorong 4 – The Best Fish Head Curry in Singapore

I had known about Ocean Curry Fish Head more than five years ago when fellow colleagues highly raved about it. We would head there for lunch every now and then and I could still remember their very awesome Nonya-style fish head curry that was so worth travelling all the way there for. I hadn’t visited […]

Excellent Egg Tarts from Pancake King @ Ang Mo Kio Ave 6

Normally, when we hear the word ‘pancake’, the first thing that comes to mind is probably the round, thin & fluffy cake that we eat with syrup and/or butter like the hotcakes from Mac N Dees. While Pancake King does breakfast and dessert pancakes (with bananas & caramel sauce, sausage & eggs or chicken nuggets […]

Ji De Lai Braised Duck Rice 记得来卤鸭饭 @ Ang Mo Kio Ave 10

Though I’ve lived in Ang Mo Kio for the longest time ever, there are still a number of places I’ve yet to explore including this particular precinct. Previously I was in the vicinity to buy cakes from Pine Garden and this time round I was supposed to have lunch at Nakhon Kitchen with the makan […]

Ah Bong’s Italian @ Eng Hoon Street (Tiong Bahru)

The husband and I headed down to Tiong Bahru for our monthly stocking-up spree at Foodie Market Place and went around looking for somewhere to have lunch as usual. It was about 1.30pm on a Saturday and we were happy to see that Ah Bong’s Italian was still open (we came by too late the last time) which […]

Kow Loon Hong Kong Dim Sum @ 151 Ang Mo Kio Ave 5

I hadn’t come back here for dim sum for a long while now though this stall which has been in operation for almost 30 years is just less than a 10-minute walk away from my house. How convenient! One of the Sundays, the husband and I decided to wake up early and head here for yum […]
