Whampoa Satay Bee Hoon

It is quite surprising that after all these years, I still have not really visited Whampoa's famous eateries and food markets, and only recently was prompted to go there by one of my readers here.

The Whampoa Market is indeed huge, and houses twice as many food stalls as your regular food market. But, what is more important is that the quality of the food here is exceptionally high.

Of Apple, Iphone 4, Food Blog and Video Blogging

It has been awhile since I took a bit of time away from reviewing and cooking food, and I thought this might be an opportune time to reflect on a few things.

First, I wanted to write about how I have been doing my food blogs and taking the videos and photos that you see here, and it might surprise a few of you.

Flavvors at Toa Payoh Orange Tee Building

I was over at Toa Payoh Hub for a meeting a few weeks ago and my friend recommended me to try this somewhat new Chinese Dim Sum styled place.

It is actually situated right in the front of the Orange Tee building and is very visible from the front. Internally, it is quite cosy and has a nice decor.

XiMenDing Taiwan Cuisine

The basement of Raffles City has seen a lot of changes recently, and there are no lack of eating places there with a wide range of different cuisines.

One of the most recent addition is this new Taiwanese eatery, XiMenDing Taiwan Cuisine which is very nicely decorated and serves a wide selection of Taiwanese favorites.

Fine Cuts at Clarke Quay Central

Singapore has its fair share of Jack's Place and Astons these days, and sometimes, Pauline and I just long to eat some good steak without going to the usual haunts and avoiding too high a price tag.

So, it came to our surprise we chanced upon this steak and meat cafe in Clarke Quay Central, right in the heart of its basement and quietly tucked away. It is a very cosy place though.

Pie Connection Curry Puffs at Shunfu Market With Video

My previous double puff features on Tip Top and Selera elicited quite a number of impressions, and I decided to follow up with a 3rd puff feature.

This time, this excellent curry puff outlet resides in Shunfu Market, which has already produced quite a number of gems as documented in my previous posts.

Leong Hainanese Chicken Rice at Shunfu Market

In the unending discovery of culinary treasures in Shunfu Market, lies another unassuming yet exceptional food gem, this particularly wonderful chicken rice stall.

Leong Hainanese Chicken Rice looked just like any other chicken rice stall, serving seemingly common chicken rice fare and managed by its owner and a helper.

Rong Cheng Bak Kut Teh at Sin Ming

Block 22 at Sin Ming has always been known for a number of eateries, and the bak kut teh shop here is one of its most illustrious tenants.

Found on the edge of this humongous HDB block, it serves very classic and traditional Teochew bak kut teh and is often a favorite stop of mine for a quick breakfast fix.
