Phan Viet Deli

I am not a big fan of Vietnamese food. Their food is pretty bland in my opinion, while I prefer food with stronger taste. But this paper springroll is so pretty that I'd like to share it with everyone.  It is served with plum sour... its taste is rather refreshing.

Ghim Moh Hawker Centre - Rong Yuan Cooked Food

Freshly-made chee cheong fun, glutinous rice, taro cake... try it before this is gone.  This stall is manned by a senior, whom I suppose who is already in his 60s.  He starts business at 4+am in the morning, serves mainly to the breakfast crowd.  On most days, his closes his stall by 8am.  On lucky days, he will open till about 2pm.  Even for someone who works in the vicinity, I consider it my lucky day if the stall is open during lunch hour.

The freshly made food, limited in variety, but the quality is maintained.  Highly recommended!



Chee Cheong Fun with glutinous rice.  The chee cheong fun is smooth in texture and springy.  Loves the sweet sauce that goes on the cheong fun.  The glutinous rice is soft, not too sticky... on some days, it may be a little dry.  Love the big dried shrimps hidden within the rice.

Ah Poh Kitchen at Clementi

Great lunch place which serves chinese halal food.  Food quality is good and best part is the portion isn't that big - reduce wastage for small group gatherings.  Because it is local delights zi-char that is halal, the shop is very popular with both Muslim and non-Muslim friends.  Reservations is recommended especially if you are planning for gatherings.

They are famous for their fishhead curry, the "lemak" (local terminology for the coconut milk taste) level is just nice.  The fish is fresh and tender.  Level of spiciness is quite mild.  My personal favourite is the cereal prawn.  Love the cereal so much that I am always happy to "bao" all the cereal!  The cereal portion is generous and they are crispy.  Their dishes are generally quite delicious.  You may also want to try the hotplate tofu and sambal kangkong.
