Coffeeshop / Hawker

The standard came with four slices of char siew, black fungus, one whole ajitsuke tamago (ramen egg), two sheets of seaweed and I added two more slices of chashu》$6.90 + $2 Chashu

The broth was light and I wished it was thicker but the thick and succulent chashu compensated with a good balance of fats and meat. A value for money bowl of ramen located in a hawker centre.

They serves a wide variety of handmade noodles cooked dry/soup with a choice of ingredients like abalone, fish maw, meatballs or sliced fish. I ordered the usual day ban mian with meatballs, minced pork and chilli, topped with ikan bilis, mushroom and vegetables》$4

The noodles has a very springy QQ texture and paired well with the sweet, savoury and spicy sauce. I found the chilli a bit too spicy but still shiok! I should just ask for lesser chilli the next time I order this.

with sweet potato fries, broccoli, zucchini and teriyaki sauce》$12

with aglio olio, red bell pepper, roasted cherry tomato and mango sauce》$12

Common grill by Collin’s have their own customisable menu where one can create your own meal to your liking with 1 protein, 1 carb, 2 sides and sauce. Additional carb/sides is also available at $1 per extra serving.

Collin's has been my all time favourite place when it comes to having an affordable, value for money and hearty western meal. Members get extra 10% off across all Collin's outlet incl coffeeshops 😀

Comes with crunchy bean sprouts, chinese sausag, lots of eggs and dark sweet sauce giving a lovely taste and texture》$4

They have one of the best chicken wings here. Rice was lemak enough and sambal was perfect 👍 Their fish cake are very soft too.

What took me so long to discover this? I join the snaking long queue out of curiosity because Singaporeans love to just follow blindly and queue. Got queue means something good! 😂

While our hor fun has more wok-hei, this Thai style hor fun is more peppery. It comes with the same ingredients as what we have in our chinese hor fun but without the wok hei and green chillies 》$5

Top-up $1.50 to make it a set with tom yum soup and chicken wing

A new thai cuisine cooked by a thai chef hence the authentic tasting basil chicken. My only complain is that it's too spicy. My tongue were numb trying to finish this meal. It's like one side of me is telling me to stop eating coz its too spicy while the other side is telling me not to stop coz its quite delicious 😅 》$5

Top-up $1 to make it a set with tom yum soup that's more sour rather than spicy. It comes with vegetables, tomato and mushrooms.

Brazilian pork belly, jasmine rice, seasonal vegetables, shoyu onsen egg 》$8

After glancing at the bowl next to me, I decided to order with 'less fat' and it turns out perfect with well-balanced ratio of lean meat to fats.

I had a difficult time dealing with the uncut bok choy using disposable utensils. Char siew came with crispy exterior while maintaining tender, juicy and tasty inner lean meat.

My second (first goes to ikura and tobiko) favorite claypot that comes with extra crispy and fragrant pork lard together with chewy and salty bacon, onsen egg and Japanese seasoning – furikake.

Thanks @burpple for the Eatup and Maryanne for hosting.
