Kai Garden, Marina Square

Go!!! Okay so in my world of dim sum I’ve only regarded Imperial Treasures Nan Bei Takashimaya as the place to go to for great dim sum. I can now add another place to that — Kai Garden. Kai Garden at Marina Square is opened by chef Fung Chi Keung, previously from Paradise Group, the Continue reading

Teo Heng Teochew Porridge, Hong Lim Market and Food Centre

Go!!! Good Teochew porridges are a rare commodity these days but at least they can still be found. Teo Heng Teochew Porridge in particular is my new favourite, especially during a rainy day. $50. I had their braised duck, braised pork belly and intestines, stuffed taupok, fish cake, boiled squid, salted vegetables and tunghoon cabbage Continue reading

Seng Kee Black Chicken Herbal Soup, Changi Road

Go! On first glance, Seng Kee Black Chicken Herbal Soup looks nothing out of the ordinary. Its placement along Changi Road makes it easy to miss given the other mouth watering places along the same stretch.

Kok Sen Restaurant, Keong Saik Road

Go! Kok Sen Restaurant is one of the few old school zichar left. Their shophouse at Keong Saik Road is unpretentious and laid back, a sharp contract to the surrounding modern developments. Upon walking in, you’ll notice that their signature dishes are printed on bright orange slips and pasted on the walls. If that’s too Continue reading

Lau Ah Tee Bak Kut Teh, Whampoa West

Worth a try. Just next to Boon Keng MRT is a coffee shop selling traditional Teochew Bak Kut Teh. I’ve long heard of this place, and finally got a chance to try it. During my time there, I observed a constant flow of people, which is testimony that this place has a spot in many Continue reading

Shi Li Fang, City Square Mall

Go!! Edit 21 Dec 17: While I highly recommend the branch at City Square Mall, my friends who visited the Orchard Central branch didn’t have a good experience. Firstly, the staff insisted on selling them the Christmas set, saying that set menus are not available for dinner. I know this to be not true, because Continue reading
