BBQ Stingray (Ah Liang BBQ Seafood)
The only seafood stall at Serangoon Garden Market. The sting ray itself wasn't too good; the flesh was a bit tough. The most important thing is the sambal chilli - and it wasn't good either.
V's verdict: 5.5/10

MacPherson BBQ Seafood
12th May, Tuesday
This is located at the junction of North Bridge Road and Upp Circular Road, despite its name.
BBQ Stingray with Chilli Sotong
(Hmm... why are they using a Kopitiam plate?)
In my opinion, this is still one of the best places for BBQ stingray, though their standard isn't always consistent. For example, there was a period of time in 2006 where their standard dropped significantly and I stopped visiting them for several months. Also, the stingray quality is different for lunch and dinner; dinner seems to be prepared by someone else and the stingray is always overcooked and dry.
Today's stingray was a bit below the normal standards, but it's already better than many other places I have tried before. The rice was too hard. Their sambal chilli was good, though it could be hotter. The sotong today was better than usual though --- fresh and tender. $6.90 (without the egg)
V's verdict: 7/10
K's verdict: 7.5/10

BBQ chicken wings (Daily Fresh B.B.Q)
I thought it was so-so only. $1 per wing.

Fried hokkien mee (Ah Hock Fried Hokkien Noodles, Stall 27)
The famous stall that everyone knows. His hokkien mee is mixed with bee hoon and yellow noodles, and was the dry kind without any gravy. Instead of the usual >20 minute wait, the noodles came in just 5 minutes. It was a bit disappointing though, the texture seemed to be off and the noodles looked as if they were glued and stuck together. $3/$4/$5
V's verdict: 6/10

Fried kway teow (Chomp Chomp Fried Kway Teow Mee)
This stall has been there since I was young, so that's at least 15 years or more. Today's was also so-so, but then again, they were never really excellent in the first place.
V's verdict: 6/10

BBQ sting ray (忠忠海味园 B.B.Q)
This stall is located right at the left side of the entrance. We were sitting right outside Lucy's BBQ seafood stall, so we felt a little awkward when our food came. Well, turned out that we should have ordered from Lucy's instead, since I thought our BBQ sting ray tasted quite horrible. I remember ordering it before and it never tasted so bad! K claims that her judgement was biased due to her overwhelming love for BBQ sting ray, though. $8/$10/$12
V's verdict: 3.5/10
K's verdict: 7/10
One thing to note; we were sitting right beside the fan and our food was cold in a matter of minutes. So it is possible that they would have earned a higher score if not for the fan...
