Super flaky and toffee-like pastry. The outer layer was delicate and crisp. The inner was like much like "prata"- the buttery taste and doughy-stretchy texture- yet the perimeter was caramelized and sweet.

Not the cheapest you will find, but reasonable. The cook is generous in their sauce; not a single piece of meat not coated. Extra sauce always make good with white rice. Recommend their Mongolian Rib.

Affordable sweets purchased from Little India Arcade. The one in diamond shape, topped with silver foil, was a good experience- less sweet as compared to the rest.

A small air-conditioned vegetarian food store, tuck in a corner of blk 479, serving a variety of local delights but in a meatless form. Food served were consistent and delicious. Best part is there is no need to travel to Fortune Centre to find a vegetarian meal.

P.s. the claypot rice doesnt look like this when served.

Ordered Steak Avocado and Shrimp Volcano Rice. The staff was nice to accommodate our request of putting the sauces aside. The steak was affordable; quality of good enough. The chili concoction was great btw. Just a little missed that the vegetables were on the saltier side.

The shrimp volcano rice, on the other hand, was served in a smaller portion. The sauce that came with it was just BBQ sauce. Nothing fancy.

Love the food, love the décor of the shop and love the deal. P.s. the smell of truffles is a tad too overwhelming. #HappyProblemThough

Had a Matcha-misu and Jasmine Orient. The tiramisu inspired "matcha-misu" was a tad bit weird. The sugar level was low (which is great) and matcha flavour was obvious. However, the finger-biscuits alike was too grainy (the texture is similar to soaking wheat cracker into hot milo).

On the other hand, the Jasmine Orient was a good choice. The pairing of sweet (chocolate mousse), sour (passion fruit) and slight bitter (matcha cake base) in one dessert was rather balanced.

Dish: Traditional "Pang Pang" Chinese Crêpe
Price: $5.90

New store selling Chinese Crêpe and skewers. This Crêpe is wrapped simply with sauces, egg, cabbage, spring onion, coriander and deep-fried wanton skins. What's "special" about this snack is the textures- soft (from the skin, egg and cabbage) and crispy (from the wanton skin).

Dish: Dry Ramen With Dumplings
Price: $6.00

Vege pot offers affordable vegetarian dishes and their dumpling is one of their best dishes offered. I usually order the dumpling soup noodle instead of the dried version, and I wasn't expecting the sauce to be thick (almost like the sauce of lor mee- inclining to the sweeter side). Still, it was a pleasant meal.

Dish: Tonkotsu Ramen
Price: $7.20 (inclusive of 40cents for takeaway)

The soup base was thick, oily and lacking of flavours- I can taste more burnt bits than the cloyingness from the soup. Efforts for the packaging though.

Had wanted to try this new food store, located at Jurong East Bus Interchange, for a couple of time, but the queue were insane. This time round, there wasn't any queue. Hence, I ordered a one with the filling of preserved vegetable. I was expecting a doughy and chewy outer skin with preserved vegetable. However, it came out to be a huge thin biscuit-like pancake. There is nothing to comment on this snack from China; and nothing to rave about.
