Welcome to Geylang Bahru.

During this rainy season, one dish I crave is fish head steamboat, and the one from this zi char stall really doesn't disappoint. Their cook is good, making other zi char dishes really good as well!

The Fish Head Steamboat ($35) came in a big pot with numerous vegetable ingredients and fish head slices. There may be quite some bones in each of the pieces, but they do have quite some meat as well. The fish head meat had a wonderful bite, with fresh sweet fish flavours coming in. Their soup is really the highlight, with rich robust flavours coming from the anchovies, vegetables and fish head. Its super addictive!

Their BBQ Sotong Squid ($36 for 3, seasonal price) is another of their speciality and I highly recommend getting them. Each squid slice is tender yet chewy and they were packed with so much seafood sweetness and smokiness from the grill. Pair them with their homemade green chilli sauce and it's really perfect.

Even their vegetable dish is worth a mention. Their Stir Fried Potato Leaves ($18 for medium) is fresh and all generously drenched in a robust sauce and the fried preserved vegetables on top made the dish so much more complex with its contrasting crispy texture and the smoky savoury flavours.

Definitely be back again!

Bomb's Kitchen is a western food store located in a coffee shop of an ordinary looking coffee shop, and serving an ordinary looking chicken cutlet.

So I was rather surprise, that the chicken cutlet was rather good, portion was rather big, and the chicken was so tender, juicy and the batter was crispy.

For $7.30, will come back anytime

Geylang Bahru has 2 stalls selling Carrot cakes, and both of which are rather good.

Small portion is just right as a top up if u still feel hungry after a meal. It taste good and there's a small $3 portion to order from.

Will definitely return to have more again.

Big Daddy Cake - Super Chocolatey with Nutella and Valrhona

1 of My favourite chocolate cakes, instantly, and this is my first time ordering and eating a cake from here.

The cake was moist and solid, not those airy type of cakes. Every bite was so decadent-ally good.

So rich and moist. The best combination for a chocolate cake.

Best to be eaten within 3 days.

Owner-Chef Mr Ong has been tweaking the recipe for his secret braising gravy since he started in 1974.
.
The rice is infused with the gravy, giving it a pronounced sweet salty flavour, though without yam / taro. It also has a noticeable firmer texture than elsewhere, which might not appeal to all.
.
The braised duck is boneless and lean with a slight tender chew, carrying the notes from the soy and spices in the braising gravy, meaty sweet salty savoury herbal in flavour.
.
Slices of crunchy juicy cucumber and crisp spring onions, with vegetal sweet notes, lend a nice contrast to round out the meal.

Cheap and affordable. Steady queue during lunch time.

Fish was fresh. This dish tasted a little light though.

$3.50 for 2 Veg 1 Meat + curry is really delicious!
Whole dish tasted reealllly fresh!

Highly recommend the pork cutlet.
EXtremely crispy yet juicy and tender.
Unlike most fried meat you get outside, the pork cutlet had more meat than flour! ~~85% meat.
Auntie was very generous with the portion of meat too!
YUM

An under-the-radar stall for barbecue chicken wings, there's a buzz of activity here as the uniform-clad staff quickly take and fulfill orders.
.
Well roasted, the chicken wings have a crispy juicy tender texture, with bold meaty savoury salty sweet flavour.
.
The dipping sauce of chili and lime juice is bright with tangy zesty sour spicy notes, pairing well with the succulent chicken wings.

Why choose one when you can have the best of both worlds🌗? The Mixed Carrot Cake ($5) from Hua Ji Carrot Cake (华记菜头糕) at Geylang Bahru Market & Food Centre (#01-52) consists of both black and white carrot cake. The white carrot cake is soft, thoroughly coated in egg and fried till fragrant. The black carrot cake is a tad sweet for me, but nonetheless still tasty. Not bad!

Simple yet delicious! Very wallet friendly too
Portion is bigger than it looks in photo. Took this photo halfway through eating 😂
