My Food Trail

My family has always loved their floss buns 💗 ($2.30) - did you know that they have 6 different flavours?
.
🔹️Cereal Flosss: reminds me of cereal prawns 🦐 with the rich flavours
🔹️Coconut Flosss: coated with shredded coconut 🥥, this encases a smooth & delicious kaya layer!
🔹️Curry Flosss: perfect for the curry lover 🍛 with strong flavours from curry powder & curry leaves
🔹️Wasabi Flosss: Japanese inspired flosss 🇯🇵 that packs a punch
🔹️Chicky Flosss: can't beat this OG! ✨️
🔹️Hot Chick Flosss: comes with a tinge of spice 🌶

A widely popular hotpot name in Hong Kong & a hit with HK celebrities, you can now visit its first overseas outpost at Great World! 🇸🇬
.
One distinct feature is the 9 grids of differing temperatures 🔥 so you can cook different hotpot items based on the recommended cooking time! Its signature soup is brewed & simmered from premium imported spices & condiments 🇨🇳 such as chilli & peppers, with fresh ingredients specially curated to complement the soups 🥣. The spice level is quite formidable - you can opt for less or more spicy though 🤭
.
Besides the usual fresh meats 🥩, seafood 🦑, vegetables & produce 🍄, expect novelty items like razor clams, celtuce slices 💚, beef tripe, hand-beaten ebiko prawn paste 🦐 (my favourite!), innards, or their exclusive in-house ingredients like Putien soft tofu 🤍 & chewy sweet potato noodles.

Gula Melaka Sago Pudding ($12++): an Asian-inspired dessert on the menu, drixzle on the gula melaka sauce 🤎 & coconut cream 🥥 & enjoy! It can be more loose; this was pretty dense in texture.

looking classy in a cocktail glass, this dessert ($14++) features basil macerated strawberries 🍓, meringue, cream vanilla chantilly 🤍 & granola crumble. A very sweet treat indeed!

Doused in a mildly spicy soupy sauce 🌶 with pan-fried tofu, minced pork 🐖, prawns 🦐 & assorted vegetables, their springy ramen with a nice bite remains the highlight to me. 😋
.
The ramen is specially curated to be served with a Mini Garlic Don 🧄🍚 & 2 pieces of Pumpkin Croquettes 🎃 with yuzu mayonnaise, alongside cold/hot green tea 🍵, all for $16.90++ as a 4-in-1 set! What a good deal!

The Ah-Pollo is another hot favourite, especially with that milky custard filling with buttery & milky flavours. 🌟 Enjoyed this bun for breakfast!
.
🇹🇼 Ah-Pollo ($2.60)

Love their buns but my bias would be the Sesame Joy 🖤 & Nutty Together 🥜 for their earthy & nutty aroma encased in the soft fluffy buns! Reminds me of glutinous rice balls! 😋
.
🇹🇼 Sesame Joy ($2.80, 2 for $5.20)
🇹🇼 Nutty Together ($2.80, 2 for $5.20)

If you haven't, you must try their award-winning Lychee Rose Royale ($21.80) 💯, awarded 1st prize during 2010 Master de la Boulangerie🥇! With a 15-hour fermentation process, the dough is soaked overnight in Taiwanese imported black leaf lychee & natural rose petals 🌹. Dried lychee soaked in lychee wine, roasted walnuts & dried rose petals are then added to boost the fruity & floral notes. A lovely giant! 💗

The 6 Joyful Surprises are:
.
🔹️Original Egg Tart (Flaky)
🔹️Original Egg Tart (Cookie)
🔹️Lychee Popping Joy Egg Tart
🔹️Collagen Egg Tart
🆕️ Dark Chocolate Egg Tart
🆕️ Ondeh-Ondeh Egg Tart
.
I have always adored their original & collagen egg tarts - can't go wrong with the combination of sweet egg custard & buttery crust 🧈! The Lychee Popping Joy rendition reminds me of boba 🧋, delighting with refreshing burst of fruity pops! 😋
.
Choc lovers will enjoy the Dark Chocolate Egg Tart! 🍫 Like how the rich 72% dark chocolate adds a new dimension to the egg tart - not too sweet! 👌🏻 My parents really liked the aromatic, pandan-infused egg custard of the new Ondeh-Ondeh Egg Tart 💚! Topped with gula melaka, shredded coconut 🥥 & dusted with desiccated coconut, this will appeal to our 🇸🇬 tastebuds!

Curry Lamb Naan Nachos ($14.90++): boasting of super strong Indian flavours 🇮🇳, this place features crispy naan & tortilla chips generously loaded with minced lamb curry stew 🥘, followed by a drizzle of ranch sauce & tomato chutney. Very addictive; I couldn't stop munching!

Mini Yorkshire Pudding ($19.90++/5pcs): a classic English dish, this is topped with roasted angus beef 🐄, horseradish cream (which renders a little pungent kick) & caramelised onions 🧅. I quite like how the flavours complement each other, although the yorshire pudding can be more pliable.

What a splendid display of colours! 🌈 The soft-boiled egg was soft & runny, providing a nice contrast to the meat wrapped around with a nice crunchy exterior. 🌟 Accompanied by purple cabbage slaw 💜, smoked bacons & picked mustard seeds. Yums! 😋 This dish is priced at $16.90++.
