Wah very indulgent.
Sweet-citrusy iced lemon tea with bear-shaped ice for appearance. Refreshing and light.
An extra dollar for the cute bear-shaped ice infused with milk tea. Flavour was classic HK cha chaan teng style, sock-brewed taste with balanced sweetness, milkiness, and tea. Smooth, not astringent, and comforting to drink.
Nissin Demae Iccho noodles with char siew, luncheon meat, soy sauce chicken wing, and an over-hard fried egg. Char siew was tender, delicious, with a slight herbal note and glossy finish. Don’t slap me for saying this, but the instant noodles tasted very much like instant noodles. You know that distinct flavour you immediately recognise. That’s exactly how it came across to me. The rest of the toppings were as expected. Soup was comforting and savoury.
The outlet at Dempsey is a bit isolated, so you always find a seat here. The cooked dishes are unusual and excellent. The sushi and sashimi are less plentiful but still very fresh. Service is good, although there is only one male waiter because the restaurant is not full. Prices are reasonable.

Came here for lunch on a workday and it was pretty crowded! The dimsum was fresh and came piping hot, we had no trouble finishing the food.
Founded in December 2021 by Nguyen Thi Kieu Hanh, this stall is popular for their unique and creative variations of South Indian fermented rice pancakes, served in large generous portions and nicely satisfying.
.
The original version is made with a blend of fermented rice batter and coconut milk, featuring thin crispy edges and fluffy soft center, carrying grainy savoury sweet salty flavour. Accompanied with grainy orange coloured palm sugar crystals which lend a sweet note, and fluffy grated coconut with earthy floral sweet flavour.
.
The princess version has added whisked chicken egg, cheddar cheese, and butter, lending layers of luscious chewy wispy soft textures, and added eggy sweet cheesy salty savoury buttery flavour. Finished with a bit of brown sugar for an earthy sweet note. Yum.

Other than their yummy Lontong and budget-friendly hearty Mee Soto, the Nasi Lemak Set is quite decent too. I had Set B, which comes with fragrant light-green coconut rice carrying a hint of pandan flavour, topped with a greasy fried egg, flavourful chicken wing, fried fish fillet, ikan bilis, peanuts, cucumber, and sambal.
The rice was semi-moist and slightly sticky, yet still soft and fluffy with a distinct lemak taste. Best enjoyed together with the spicy sambal mixed with onion and ikan bilis for maximum shiokness. The chicken wing had a slight crisp outer, probably left on the counter for a while, but the meat inside remained succulent. Ikan bilis and peanuts were really crunchy, while the fish fillet leaned chewy.

Desserts were a pleasant way to wrap things up. Atsuki panna cotta came with red bean jelly and mochi. It’s mildly sweet and soft, easy to enjoy. Warabi mochi was just classic soft Japanese mochi with sweet red bean paste, light and chewy. The tempura banana was the most indulgent of the lot. Batter-fried banana with black sugar, gula melaka, coconut ice cream, and sago.
Overall, a decent finish to the buffet. Not the highlight but a sweet little send-off.
