Happy Wonton Noodle - Does this really makes you happy?

2008-09-13T00:17:00.001-07:00

Do you know why the signboard says Happy Wonton Noodle? Because after eating it, you will feel happy!
This is just a branch of the main stall which is the Carlton Restaurant along East Coast Road. For people who loves dark sauce, this is it. This kind of dark sauce wonton noodle are getting rare nowadays, and so lucky that i have found this stall at Bukit Timah Food Centre.
The noodles are very QQ, which made the noodle really good. Char Siew and wonton wise, i would give a average rating only. Nevertheless, this is one of the good wonton noodle i ever came across. 4/5

Changi Beef Kway Teow Mee - BEST Currently.

2008-08-08T08:14:00.001-07:00

For beef noodle lovers, you gotta try this!

Large Beef Noodle Dry - $5

It find it most satisfying discovering the real good food rather than depending on what the newspaper and TV recommend. And this particular stall did not let me down for today, instead it made my trip all the way to changi village meaningful. This, Changi Beef Kway Teow Mee, is the BEST beef noodle i had so far. Having a largest bowl of noodle really satisfy me. Start from soup first, I find the soup sweet and robust and containing flavour of beef.

Now, the DRY noodle is the real exciting part.

We all know that dry beef noodle is really different from other dry noodles, like dry fishball noodle. Unlike dry fishball noodle, dry beef noodle comes with a thick gravy that fills almost more than 4/5 of the bowl. And this is what made the dish so yummy and shiok!

Too bad i cannot get a clear shot of the gravy, but it is really different. Imagine you are having a bowl of shark fin soup. Instead of finding crabmeat inside, you will find tiny strands of beef, and the gravy is thick. YES, thats is how the gravy is like, and it taste fabulous! You really need to have a spoonful of gravy and taste the gravy before dining in! 4.75/5!!!

You must try this first before calling yourself a beef noodle lover.

Changi Best Nasi Lemak?

2008-08-08T07:59:00.000-07:00

Standard Set - $2.50

At last i had a chance to taste one of Changi Village's Nasi Lemak Stalls. Luckily I went there during non-peak hours, or else i would have to wait for 20 minutes for just one plate of Nasi Lemak. The best is the rice, followed by the chicken wing. The rice have a strong smell of pandan, and once you had the taste of the rice, it is so good until you will never forget it. Shiok! Next is the chicken wing, smells good and taste excellent. The best part is you get to eat it hot, unlike others cold and not crispy. 4.5/5

Pork Chop - $5

Journey to Bukit Merah on one Saturday night. Well, basically we want some good food to fill our desire and yes, after walking more than 30 minutes to find this bloody Bukit Merah View Food Centre, we had found it!
Together the three fo us, we ordered different set to have a try on different things. Mine was Pork Chop, and i am glad that i had ordered the correct set. Their pork chop is thinner than any other than i had tried, but the whole set comes with 2 slices of pork lion inside. Neither soft nor too hard, its texture was good. But what i like most is the gravy and the coleslaw. The black pepper gravy was simply good, and it goes perfectly with the pork chop, that is why i had mentioned that i had made the correct choice. Same goes for the coleslaw, excellent. 4.25/5

Fish & Chip - $5

I had only eaten two mouth of this Fish & Chip, and i can taste the taste of herbs like basil instead of using MSG. $5 for a Fish & Chip is no more bargain. I mean hello, the portion is huge for your info, although the picture above does look like it. For more information, i shall let NarDd to edit this. My rating, 4/5

NarDd
I couldn't agree more, this dish is simply worth the money. I remember going to coffee shops and eating fish and chips, but I had never tasted one of this quality! Normally, the fish that are used are the frozen dory fishes which produces a smell that isn't quite nice in the fishes and mashy fish. However, in this fish and chips, the fish had no smell and the fish was rather crispy and is soft and not hard at all, eating a fish without the tenderness really bores people..
overall rating
4.5/5

Chicken Cullet - $5

Updates:
The main owner had relocated his stall at ABC brickworks food centre and handed his former stall at Bukit Merah View to his inmate that he had trained him. Which means, we haven't tried the best standard of this yet. Hmmms.

Lost and Found? Fried Hokkien Noodle

2008-08-07T21:20:00.001-07:00

Fried Hokkien Noodle - $3

I remembered correctly that this was featured in the My Makan Places - Lost and Found 2 by Gurmit Singh and Michelle Chia. I came across this show when i was in a bus watching this show on TVMobile. Coincidentally, it is located in Lavender Food Centre, which is quite near during my bus journey. Therefore, i alighted at Jln Besar and went there for my hunt.
It really disappoint me when i had a taste of this, not as good from what i expect from what i see on the TV show. Nevertheless, the quality is above average. One thing I like about this is they use xi mi fen (thin bee hoon) rather than chu mi fen (thick bee hoon), which makes it easier to taste their soup used to cook this inside the beehoon. Maybe their fried kway teow or oyster omelette will be better? Haha. 3.5/5

Katong Laksa or Laksa?

2008-08-07T20:12:00.001-07:00

Laksa - $3

Which is better? Katong Laksa or our original Laksa? I believe most of us know the difference between Laksa and Katong Laksa. Katong Laksa is also referred to Nonya Laksa, that is eaten just with spoon. Nowadays, more and more good stalls of Laska are all Katong Laksa, but then i come across this stall which i believe most of us will like it.
Too bad i forgotten the name of the stall, but from what i know they sell fish ball noodles, minced meat noodle, curry chicken noodle and laksa. Focusing on Laksa first because this is my favourite food. :) The gravy is simply good, and it goes good with chicken too. That is why curry chicken noodle is available too. For Laska lovers, try this. It will definitely fill you up. The queue there is never ending. One of the Top 10 Laksa i had tried so far, although this is only the first post of Laksa. Haha. 4.25/5

Katsu Curry Don in Waraku

2008-07-31T07:25:00.000-07:00

Katsu Curry Don in Waraku

The Katsu Curry Don in Waraku is rated

4.5/5

This fabulous bowl of Japanese Cuisine is well worth the money.
First of all, the outlet at Central, the only one in Singapore currently, is a Japanese and Pasta Restaurant.

Comments
First of all, the bowl is big as I have bought the bigger bowl which cost $12.90 .
This comes with a bowl of miso soup.
After mixing it together , the curry, the rice and the chicken, I taste the mixed rice and realised to my delight that it was good.
The Curry was alright 4/5
The rice was not hard and in fact, was soft and nice 4/5
The chicken was great, although it was mixed with the curry, the chicken remains crispy and soft even though of it's size (a 1cm thick 7cm long pieces of meat) 5/5

It was a rather good dish but the only thing was that it makes me very thirsty and I had to refill my cup of green tea every now and then

Prepare to drink a lot of this and expect quality and quantity =)
(It filled me up to 3/4 full but to many others, it is just nice for them, I EAT ALOT!)

Directions to Central, Waraku Restuarant
MRT to Northeast Line's Clarke Quay.

Ngak Seah - Beef Kway Teow

2008-07-12T08:17:00.000-07:00

My first attempt on a food blog post, so don't blame me for my poor language.

Bugis Street Ngak Seah Beef Kway Teow.

Beef Bee Hoon (Dry) - $4.

The very first post of this food blog. Although it is still in the minds of upgrading, but lets post something to keep this alive since this blog was created quite sometime ago. Okay, back to topic. Beef noodle, is not much of a common sight. However, when I was to pass by Lavender Food Center, which I didn't really know where was it located during my bus ride, I discovered that there is quite a variety of choices there. Despite the number of choices, nothing would be better than one of my favourite dish, the beef noodle.

Comments
It is definitely better than all other beef noodle i had tried in food courts, the sauce that was used, was perfect. The, not too thick but not too watery base , is excellent.
The soup base is unknown as I had not tried it yet, oh well, maybe my next trip there I will try the soup noodle.

Rating: 3.5/5 (that means it's worth the cash.)
Price: $3/ $4/ $5/ $6

In the midst of making the banner for the Food Collab, having a rather difficult time as my mind runs blank at the screen of the mighty PHOTOSHOP CS2.
As soon as we get the main parts fix, the first dish will be served. =)
Upgrading works will carry on.
