Looking for Chinese places?

Feast on their Stewed Eggplant With Minced Meat & Salted Fish In Spicy Sauce ($16) and Honey Glazed Coffee Ribs ($28) or tuck into their Sauteed Chicken With Creamy Salted Egg Sauce ($18), paired with a side of Wok Fried Hor Fun With Beef ($26).

This famous chain from Chengdu has been on my to try list - and it's amazing.

Firstly, the 3 flavour pot! It goes for $18 (same for all other combi of soups) and we must say the Buttery Mala soup, Mushroom soup and Tomato soup was all 💯💯💯.

Next, how is it possible that they have such creative meat dishes (e.g. pork ribs with cumin, bacon with enoki) and they all go for $6-$8 mostly for half portions. We were absolutely spoilt for choice.

Lastly, aaaah, their sauces!!! They recommend their Sichuan sauce which consists of spring onion, coriander, garlic, oyster sauce and a whole lotta mala oil. Just dip your meat in and it pairs perfectly.

(~$35 per pax. There's some chope discount to explore)

Quite average.

3.75⭐As we are not hungry, ordered a combo mi xian. Had tomato soup base since I don't eat spicy food. Comfort food on a raining day.

LOOOVE the Peking duck omg 😍 so good with vvv crispy skin!! They will slice the skin at your table and the leftover meat can be used to cook noodles or fried rice. Super good, 3 of us had no problem finishing it :-) however the other dishes didn’t impress me as much
Best to pre-order the duck to avoid disappointment.

We tried the yellow ginger chicken, curry chicken, and roast pork. I think the ginger chicken was the best, though we did like all. First time seeing nasi lemak served with pork.

It's pretty hard to find places that serve up authentic Taiwanese breakfast, and we're glad to have discovered True Breakfast🎉! Our favourite was definitely the Meat floss & eggs taiwanese omelette. Being made to order, it arrived piping hot😍🔥. The texture of the egg crepe was a little crispy yet chewy at the same time, and the meat floss and egg🍳 added a nice fragrance and savoury taste. So delicious that we polished off one portion each🤣!! Also, nothing beats starting the day off with a hot and fragrant cup of milk tea☕ so we'll definitely recommend getting one to go along with your breakfast! Opting for either 0% or 25% sugar level would probably be sufficient, as it'll allow you to enjoy a stronger milk tea taste without it being overly sweet🍯. Also spotted some other delicious-looking main dishes on the menu as well so we'll probably be back to try those out next time☺️!

The ingredients were of a substantial amount, which made this mala value-for-money. They also had special ingredients like the pork intestines which tasted pretty good, overall a good bowl of mala!

Middle ground. The sheets are thick so don't expect the silky type of ccf. But that thickness also made it a more substantial eat.

Imperfect. Taste was good but not juicy at all.

I am one of those who will plan their travel itinerary over where to eat. Taiwan is therefore a paradise for me as there is good food to be found wherever we went --- be it XXXXL chicken cutlet, beef noodles or Taiwanese sausage. I will however never leave Taiwan without an extra bowl of mee sua.

What makes Taiwanese mee sua different is that the thin wheat vermicelli noodles are served in a thick flavourful gooey broth, topped with oysters or braised pig intestines and finished with a dash of vinegar. I usually find it easier to slurp it all up from the bowl instead of using a spoon or chopsticks!

Feng Food is a Taiwanese eatery located in the basement of Northpoint. It serves all sorts of Taiwanese food from braised meat rice to ding tai feng-style pork chop fried rice. I rather enjoyed their pig intestines mee sua. The intestines were soft and tender whilst the mee sua was good but not Ah Zong good 😀😀😀 of course!

I will be back to check out the rest of the menu!
