Alas, my great chicken rice ball hunt has taken me all the way up to Malacca to find the holy grail of all rice balls, and did it live up to expectations?
Well, yes and no. But let me backtrack a bit. I have already had the best of the chicken rice balls here in Singapore, namely the ones in Jalan Besar and Braddell.

Chung Wah Chicken Rice Ball in Malacca, Jonker Street
Traditional Fu Shi Roasted Wanton Mee With Video
Within the confines of Shunfu Market, lies hidden one of the best kept secrets when it comes to char siew, or honey glazed barbecued pork.
Personally, I have never been a big fan of char siew, and very often I will ask them to be replaced by more wantons when I order my usual plate of wanton noodles.

Po Piah Lwee in Malacca Near Jonker Street
When we were in Malacca last week, one of our food objectives was to visit a classic Nyonya eatery called Nancy's Kitchen just off Jonker Street.
Unfortunately, we were a bit late and it seemed the place was not accepting any new customers for the day, so we were left to hunt somewhere else for our Nyonya fix.

Cafe De Hong Kong With Video
There are moments when you find immense joy in new discoveries, and discover we did in this gem of a cafe introduced by cactuskit from ieat forums.
From its unpretentious exterior, sitting on the edge of Balestier Road, one would not expect such an unassuming cafe to elicit such a treasure trove of culinary delights.

Duo of Scallops with Fermented Tofu and Chinese Greens and Apple Pear Curry Foam
Over the weekend, I had the idea of doing a scallop dish and wanted to do it two ways to present it with a certain contrast.
I also wanted to give it a nice east and west balance, so I basically came up with 2 different sauces and garnishes to signify the 2 different regions of flavors.

Tip Top Curry Puff With Video
In our second part of our Double Puff Feature, we will be focusing on what many consider to be the very best curry puff in the whole of Singapore.
Tip Top Curry Puff can only be found in Ang Mo Kio in a coffeeshop. Unlike Selera or Old Chang Kee, they only serve curry puffs and nothing else, which means they are really focused!

Selera Famous Chicken Curry Puff With Video
In the first of silverchef's Double Puff Feature, we are going to touch on Selegie's Selera Curry Puff, just opposite Rex Cinema.
This has been one of the classic curry puff stalls in Singapore, and for those who still swear by Old Chang Kee, this is one you should check out.

Soon Kee Prawn Noodles at Keban Bahru Market
I recently blogged about my favorite nasi lemak store in Keban Bahru Market in Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1. Turns out the stall next to it is quite fascinating as well.
As I was consuming my nasi lemak the other morning, I noticed that there was a very steady line of people queuing up for the prawn noodles next to it, and I was intrigued enough to try one myself.
