Welcome to Jurong West. Looking for Halal places?

Not a fan of ntu north spine pricing but this is one of the stall I would miss in NTU, their sesame seed chicken rice for $5.80 which is fairly decent

I wanted to try their nasi lemak ($4.50) a few year back. But then I didn't have a chance to do previously. I felt that the rice got fragrant coconut smell, not that bad but peanut and anchovies got crispy and crunchy texture. Fried egg was really hard and overcooked a bit. Fried Chicken got marinated with spices on the skin only and not deep inside but I felt that their chicken was quite soggy already (not that nice tbh). My colleagues he told that chili sauce was quite nice even though I didn't dip chicken into chili sauce.

The food displayed in the open tend to become less fresh where the mushrooms 🍄 become mushy as they soak in the water and raw meats 🥩 smell a little close to dinner time.

Perhaps they don’t have to store the mushrooms in bowls of water.

They nailed the sauce base and the frying imparted a slight char fragrance to the stir-fry.
Good portions for the price.
+ $0.30 to takeaway 🥡

My favourite lasagne spot at NTU at only a fraction of the price outside (usually $16.70 at Pizza Hut restaurants). Typically only available at the start of the week as it quickly runs out of stock.

Also available as a combo with drink and wings/drumlets add-on.

Last dish from my Brio series! Lol. Creamy carbonara served with turkey bacon, edamame and leeks. Nothing new except for the tempura crisps giving a good textural bite

Overall a decent place with reasonable pricing :)

Only appreciated it post-reheat, as we were already so full!

Thick beef ragout with mushroom toppings and generous parmesan shavings. Tying all these together is their flavourful basil pesto

Enjoyed the dish but nothing specially notable

Very rich tomato and seafood taste from this risotto. Rice were cooked to perfection and not mushy at all. Served with some fresh and plump shrimps and topped with, yet again, my favorite greens - rockets lol

*Can’t seem to find the exact risotto that they served to us that time from the menu now, as this doesn’t have scallops nor edamame

Brio was a random find after getting quite lost in Jurong Point (West takes a lot of getting used to 🙃)

Ordered quite a bit not knowing their servings were huge!

Had this Funghi pizza topped with portobello and button mushrooms, truffle puree, egg and rocket. Truffle is very evident from the smell, though not too overpowering when eaten. Earthy and savoury taste complimented by the slightly bitter rocket leaves

[Takeaway] Add $0.50 and the noodles and ingredients are packed separately on a shelf above the soup.

The price is fixed by the meat selection you make (about 6 options). The noodles and soup base selection doesn’t affect the price.

4 Soup Selections:
Mala 香辣, Tomyum 东炎, Sauerkraut Pickled chillies 酸菜泡椒, Mushroom 菌汤

2 Noodle Selections:
Knife-cut Noodles 刀削面, White Thick Beehoon 米线/粗米粉

The vegetables mix consisting of wood ear fungus, leafy 🥬, beansprouts, tofu strips, kelp strips, coriander, enoki mushrooms, 2 quail eggs and some chickpea-looking peas(?) cannot be customised (e.g. requesting beansprouts to be removed).

The queue for this 火锅米线 store can get pretty long during peak hours (sometimes up to a 30min wait to pick up your order) so avoid the lunch crowd if you can!

You can smell the fragrance from the pickled chilli oil floating above the soup 🍜 from a mile away!

Though I haven’t tried yet but they also sell other 小吃 dishes like Pork buns 肉夹馍, braised chicken feet, chicken gizzards 脆口鸡胗 and pig trotters/ knuckle 馋嘴猪蹄.

酸菜泡椒 海鲜 刀削面
Is my favourite combo from this 小馆子 on the far-right extension of Northspine Foodcourt

The seafood is a collection of prawns, lala manila calms, and squid. Though depending on the time of the day the freshness can vary quite a bit.

If you eat-in there’s pickled garlic 🧄 as a side dish.

this is honestly so worth it & affordable! i give this 10/10 and the desserts tasted so good! 😍😍😍
