01.01.2016. Started the year by exploring a hawker centre in the West! With the opening of the Downtown Line, it has been more convenient to travel to this part of the island.

I'm going to be harsh in my post here. The food at You Peng Fresh Mian Jiao Zi Guan (Unit 04-23) is overrated. At $7 for 10 pieces, this was not worth it. The amount of broth in the dumplings should have been more generous and the meat filling wasn't as flavourful as what other people have said it to be. I had to queue for 5 minutes to place my order, and wait another 20 minutes to collect my food. In addition, the service by the stall-owner was really bad. I would rather have my fix of XLB at Din Tai Fung or Paradise Dynasty. Really not worth it!
