Meng Kee Char Kway Teow at Beo Crescent

Previously, I talked about No. 18 Char Kway Teow at Zion which has obviously been very well known and popular among locals here, but there is another char kway teow which is even better.

This one is located at Beo Crescent near Bukit Ho Swee and is found in a very discreet coffeestall, and you would easily miss it if you do not actually look for it carefully.

Kampong Chicken Eating House at Tiong Bahru

Previously, I covered Upper Thomson's famous kampong chicken and I had mentioned then that there is another kampong chicken in Tiong Bahru as well.

It is called Kampong Chicken Eating House and likewise, it serves very yellow skinned steamed chicken and rice, as well as an assortment of zhe char dishes to go along.

Le Chasseur

Usually, it would take me almost a week before I put up a blog of a place that I have visited and fancied, but this new zhe char place was so good, I have to blog this the morning after we were there!

Quietly tucked in a corner along New Bridge road, this very humble cafe was almost too inconspicuous for its own good, and would have almost passed us by if the rather unique name had not stood out.

Rochor Beancurd House at Geylang

After my previous mention on the excellent beancurd place from Rochor Original Beancurd at Selegie, I was informed by a reader to try out this Geylang beancurd stall as well.

They look very similar to the one at Selegie, except they have a different signboard and slightly different stall name.

Mei Zhen Hakka Delicacies With Video

During our visit to Shunfu Market for our char siew feature, we also discovered that next to it was also a very popular hakka snack stall called Mei Zhen Hakka Delicacies.

It serves various hakka specialties like soon kueh (mushroom and turnip dumplings), glutinous rice, suan pan (yam balls and garlic) and many more.

Curry Favor With Video

It is always a delight when you chance upon an eating gem when you least expect it, and Curry Favor found in Stamford House is just once of those delightful surprises.

Pauline and I were on our way to a beef appreciation session hosted by the ieat folks, when we needed a quick bite near her office in Capitol.

Chung Wah Chicken Rice Ball in Malacca, Jonker Street

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.

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.
