Fried hokkien mee (车间炒福建虾面)

Tried the fried hokkien mee from a different stall, since the famous Ah Hock was closed today. This turned out quite okay. $3/$4/$5

V's verdict: 6.5/10
K's verdict: 7/10


Century egg and pork porridge (Chong Chong Pork Porridge & Macaroni)

This used to be my favourite porridge, until I tried the porridge at Maxwell Market's Zhen Zhen Porridge. Still, it's a good bowl of porridge, thick and tasty but not as thick as Zhen Zhen's, which some people think is too heavy for them. Comes with pork, century egg, pig liver, and egg. The egg costs $0.50 (!!!) and takeaway another $0.20.

$3.50 + $0.50 + $0.20

V's verdict: 7.5/10
K's verdict: 7.5/10


BBQ chicken wings (Xin Shi Dai)

Located at the back, right side. It's a relatively newer stall compared to Daily Fresh, but I found this to be slightly better. $1 per wing

V's verdict: 6.5/10
K's verdict: 7.5/10


Wanton noodles (Swee Heng Wanton Noodle)

I ordered this several years ago and loved it since. I always order their green noodles; it seems to taste better than their yellow noodles. Just moist enough, with wanton and small dumplings. The ingredients were average, but the chilli and seasoning mixed with the noodles makes this a great dish. $3/$4

V's verdict: 8/10
K's verdict: 8/10

Mango Tau Huay (Dinghao Sugarcane Juice)

I have never tried mango flavoured tau huay before. This was mixed with normal tau huay. The mango tau huay wasn't strong enough on its own, so you have to eat it with the chopped mango. Unique and interesting. $2.50

V's verdict: 7/10
K's verdict: 9/10

Fried Bee Hoon (SG Nasi Lemak)



As usual, we like to give the underdog a chance. So when this stall opened and replaced the old Newton Circus Fried Kway Teow stall (damn, the old man retired!) we decided to give it a try.

It was not bad! I like bee hoon that is not too oily, and this one obviously passes the mark. Taste-wise, it was decent. The chilli was quite good too. Of special mention is the fried egg. It's just a fried egg, right? Wrong. They fried it wonderfully such that the egg yolk is still liquid while the egg white is just firm enough; neither too hard or still in a semi-liquid stage. Delicious!

V's verdict: 7/10


Tau Huay (TSM 陈顺美)



After this got posted in ieatishootipost, we noticed a significant increase in customers this morning (me included). It shows how popular his blog is!

Ok, the tau huay here is extremely silky and smooth. And it's not too sweet. I don't like stuff that is too sweet, but I still think that this can be a bit more sweet.

V's verdict: 7/10
