In the midst of adjusting to my new job and environment, hence the hiatus in my updates ;p Will find time to write about our Taiwan trip after I've settled down. In the meantime, I wana share some nice local food which I've tried :)
Ming Kee Hainanese Chicken Rice @ Kim San Leng coffeeshop (Bishan)
Their chicken is served slightly chilled which may surprise some. The breast meat here is not dry and tough and the portion is generous! Chicken rice is moist, fragrant and not oily at all. Their soup tastes special; I think they use Szechuan preserved vegetables to give it the perk.
Another interesting thing is the cutlery. It comes in a full matching set, which gives a nostalgic touch I'd say :)
At $9 for 2 pax, it's definitely value for money!
Warning: Be prepared to queue 20 mins; even if it's during off peak hours!
Bedok Chwee Kway @ Bedok Central food centre
This is one of the must-eats when we're in the area. The chye por is stir-fried with lotsa white sesame and oil. It's quite salty but has a great flavour and crunchy bite which goes well with the chwee kway.
Tuck Kee (Ipoh) Sah Ho Fun @ Hong Lim food centre
My all time fave. I guess this stall needs no introduction as it's the only one selling nice crayfish hor fun?? The hor fun that they use is the thin type that goes very well with the dark gravy. The stall opens until 3pm on Sat. Once, we reached there 2+ and there was no need to queue at all ^^
Roti prata @ Rivervale Plaza Kopitiam
Our not-so-recent find. We've always thought that food from foodcourts is only average.
The prata here is made upon order. It's quite oily and the crispiness comes from continuous pan-frying and flipping. It's not overly thick and floury unlike some stalls'. Furthermore, it's only 80c per piece (kosong)! Why do we need to pay $1.20 for an average prata?
Warning: Prepare to queue 20 mins!
