Welcome to Commonwealth.

Treated ourselves to a hearty tze char meal at Two Chefs!

Long time since we last came here! Here is what we ordered:
-Fried sliced fish with ginger and spring onion ($12 for small)
-Coffee Pork Ribs ($12 for small)
-Hotplate Beancurd ($10 for small)

Hearty comfort food! The food was also served pretty quick! The hotplate beancurd was not what we expected though! (lol no photos to see when ordering)

You can use CDC vouchers here to pay too! We have finished using all our CDC vouchers with this visit!

Li Yuan Japanese Fusion Mee Pok!

Long time since I last ate this, and there is some revamp in menu!

We got the Japan fusion mee pok miso /shoyu (dry) to try! ($7 for small portion, $8 for large portion). You can also opt for spicy options for the miso/shoyu base. Comes with a huge slice of tonkotsu, sliced pork, minced pork as well as imitation abalone.

Rich and savoury flavours! Love the chewy mee pok texture too!

📍710 Clementi West Street 2, #01-247, Singapore 120710

Regularly sold out well before their official close of business each day, this beloved stall has been serving their hearty rendition since the 1960s.
.
The generous portion has a base of dense chewy soft compressed rice cakes with grainy sweet flavour, in a rich creamy broth of turmeric, galangal, lemongrass, coconut milk, toasted grated coconut, and other spices, resulting in a punchy sweet savoury earthy spice flavour.
.
Stacked high with soft stewed vegetables (cabbage, string beans, jicama turnip) with vegetal sweet spice flavour, a bouncy whole hard boiled egg with eggy sweet flavour, and spongy tofu bean curd with grainy sweet notes.
.
Their unique garnish of fried ikan bilis / anchovies lends a contrasting crispy crunchy texture, and robust salty savoury flavour to alleviate the richness.

Commonwealth Crescent has plenty of good food. And another solid stall here, is Hong Kee porridge.

This is also another popular stall here, with decent Google ratings. This is the thick porridge style, not the watery teochew style.

Henry's is a pretty popular chicken rice stall here at commonwealth, and with their the sheer overpowering % of roasted chicken hanging on display, u just know that the roasted chicken is more popular than the white steamed chicken

The roasted chicken here is rather good. Meat was tender and juicy.

The rice was flavourful and fragrant.

The chilli was rather Solid too.

Hidden Gem Carrot Cake

The carrot cakes here are soft and yet tasty.

The quality and quantity of the cai po and garlic combination is just right here.

Both black and white are really good.

Jian Kang Noodles serves up a pretty decent old school wanton mee.

Springy el dente noodles, wanton was pretty decent as well. And the chilli was quite solid.

Two Chefs has been an institution here at commonwealth, has been here for over a decade at least.

Everyone's must have dish when they come to 2 Chefs, is the butter Pork Ribs, a dish with tender de-boned Pork Ribs bathed in butter powder snow.

I recommend ordering large portion even for 2 pax, as any other portion surely not enough. If eating in a group, just order 2 large portions.

Ngoh Hiang not bad.

Tanglin Halt is now much quieter than before, especially since the demolition of Tanglin Halt Food Centre and some of its surrounding blocks.Soon, block 49, which this popular Roti Prata shop is located, will be demolished too.

Prata here is great, it's not crispy type, more fluffy and buttery.

The curry here is good as well.

This prata shop feels very retro, something that's hard to find in sg.

+$2 for 2 additional dumplings

Noodles were springy and el dente. Dumplings were meaty & flavourful.

Their char siew is the dry and lean type, so don't expect anything special.

I would say this is a slightly above average WTM.

Tian Xiang Wanton Noodle used to be located at the now demolished Tanglin Halt food centre.

Queenstown Lontong is a popular store at Magaret Drive Hawker Centre. Queues get rather long during weekend breakfasts.

Other than their Lontong, their Mee Rebus also popular here. Everybody in queue; would order Mee Rebus or Lontong.

Mee Rebus was rich in flavours. Gravy was thick and flavourful.

Ikan bilis was excellent. Bergedil was quite good as well
