Local Delights

Selegie is my go-to for a traditional taste of this flavor duo. The Classic Beancurd is smooth with a modest sweetness, well complemented by the savoury Fried You Tiao. I particularly enjoy their assortment of fried fritters that are light and airy, with a pleasant chew and slight crisp round the edges. Moreover, their wide variety of traditional and modern soybean and pastry products is bound to offer something of delight.

Depot Road Zhen Shan Mei Claypot Laksa serves $4/5/6 portions in claypots, elevating the laksa experience. First impression was the rather meagre portion in proportion to its price, which was quickly compensated by the taste. The gravy was fragrant with a moreish spiciness that imparted well to the smooth rice vermicelli, making for a great comfort food on rainy days. Heck, eat whenever.
