Welcome to Boon Keng.

I had nowhere else to eat, and like a true caricature, KFC delivered another joke. This was like a typical Bandito Pockett but they decided to slot in lao hong tortilla chips and use mango habanero sauce. It was an awkward combo, with cheap-tasting spiciness and sourness.

Super crispy and soft Siew Yoke, best in SG!

tbh i thought it was okay only...but the chilli packs a punch and i really like the soup!! had a strong chicken taste and wasn't salty at all

This is where I always head for my roast cravings! 88 Hong Kong Roast Specialist never disappoints. Their roast meat shines with crispy crackling and tender, juicy meat. The char siew is perfectly caramelised, balancing sweet and smoky flavours. Succulent roasted duck with aromatic spices completes the platter. Noodles are al-dente with a nice bite, topped with soft and gooey lava egg. The wantons are plump with a juicy filling, submerged in a light yet flavourful soup.

Indulge in the delightful Nasi Ayam Kunyit from Adam Corner!
This flavourful dish features stir-fried diced tumeric seasoned boneless chicken, with broccoli, cauliflower, broad peas, long beans, onions, and capsicum.
Each bite bursts with taste, making it a perfect pairing with fluffy rice.
All this deliciousness for just $7, an unbeatable value for a satisfying meal!

These are obviously deep-fried and not pan-grilled, but they're quite nice. I kept popping them.

I like lamb but didn't know it comes with tripe, which I don't eat. The noodle used is broad, not thin, therefore I didn't enjoy the meal. The soup was okay but not stunning.

Blueberry, double choc and Nutella. Same sentiments as last time. Not bad, but small.

Good stuff. Very crispy and filling's soft. May be unhealthy to some.

Dropped by this Hong Kong-inspired cafe in Bendemeer for lunch, and the interior was pretty spacious despite the nondescript entryway. We got the Slider Duo Combo ($20.90) and the Bolo Duo Egg Combo ($13.90), and each combo came with a drink.

For the slider combo, we chose the Larry Fisherman which came with tender and flakey battered haddock encased in soft brioche bun lathered with tartar sauce. Pretty good, pretty thick fish patty, but I thought the mushy peas could stand out a little more. For the other, we chose the Cultspicy which was fried chicken thigh in a spicy-tangy Comeback sauce. This was delicious, from the crisp coating of the chicken to the addictive sauce - highly recommend. The combo came with a generous side of fries which was fantastically crisp and tasty.
The Bolo egg combo was also nice, and we liked the contrast of the sweet bolo bun and kaya butter against the salty slab of luncheon meat. The half-boiled egg was also a nice touch - I saved some of the bolo bun to dip in the egg mix! As for the drinks, the matcha latte was passable but the masala chai latte was really good.

The main downside of the meal was that I thought the pricing could be clearer and the service could have a bit more initiative. There were multiple menus at the table and the waitress could have put in more effort to explain the various selections. For example, she only mentioned that choosing the crabby patty in the slider duo would be an extra $5 after we chose it rather than upfront, and only after paying did I realise the price of each combo I was charged was $1 extra from the menu prices. Was it for the drinks? I thought the lunch set came with the drink? Also, I had to walk up to the open kitchen to grab someone's attention for a refill of water, when it was just us in the eatery. Hence, overall there was cosy ambience with good brunch food, but I would hesitate to return.

Braised pork, cereal fish, kung pao chicken, French beans. Brace yourself - this is $9.50 hahaha. I don't wanna complain like others lah. I did order a lot. But it's hard to wrap your head around a caifan price like this.

Popcorn chicken, curry pork, hairy gourd. Good as always.
