Located at #02-30. They gave like 3 big prawns. But note that it only has prawns and no fishcake or lean meat. They cut the prawns in half so it is easier to eat. Dont have to deshell. The soup was very flavourful but abit spicy. A good bowl of prawn mee.
Located at #02-25. The fish soup is $5 and thick bee hoon is additional $0.50. The soup was bland for me. There was no sweetness of the vege or sourness of the tomato. Even though they added fried garlic, it was not very fragrant and still have abit of fishy taste. The batang fish slices were tender. I would say there are better options in the CBD area.
Noticed that there is a change in menu. They now sell curry rice with a protein option eg grilled chicken, pork cutlet, pork loin for $6.30. If you want the egg, need to top up $1. The omu egg is still very good. The portion is also very generous. Despite the change in menu and i think there is an increase in price, I would still recommend it.
Located at #02-06. The cai png was abit pricey and there is a min order of $4. 2 vege and 1 meat cost me $6. Vege is $1.20-$1.50 while meat is $2.50-$3 so you can hit $4 easily. The portion is really generous. The fried chicken was really crispy and tender when it was freshly out of the wok. When cold, it can be abit tough. Vege was normal. I guess the selling point is the big portion.
Looks plain, but the soup was really really good.
During rainy days there’s a really long queue, up to about 20min!! But it was delicious.
Yao Japanese Rice House is an affordable place to grab some good omu rice in food centre.
Although the omu rice really not the kind you are expecting, instead it is just the omelette placed on top of the rice.
The chicken cutlet was super crunchy and curry was tasty and sweet. Omelette was soft and fluffy.
fried shark lor mee ($4) was sooo good! but prefer the “soup” to be more starchy. so flavourful anyway. and those fried shark fillets omgggg. chef kiss
hakka brown rice ($4.50) + meatball ($0.50) + yong tau foo ($1):
very tasty. peanuts gave a nice crunch and there were various textures. this was actl the best soup ive tasted thus far. this tasted a little like peanut and altho still a little overwhelming on its own, i actually enjoyed it together with the rice (which never happens because i’ll give it up on the first mouthful lol). meatball & ytf big but were pretty meh
Located at #02-42. I ordered the omurice with mushroom cream sauce ($4.50) and add on grilled chicken ($1.50). The portion is filling. Below the omu is fried rice. The rice is fried with small pcs of meat, cabbage and carrot. The egg is runny but abit salty. Overall, i feel it is a good omurice that can be found in hawker centres.
It's pretty good stuff. First time having this, and was pleasantly surprised. The texture isn't as thick as I expected, and the peanut taste wasn't as intense as I hoped but it's still v nice. In fact a lot more balanced than I thought
Opted for the signature mee pok dry today and finally tasted the fish dumplings! Love it! The soup was so comforting I could go on and on drinking it!

Had chicken wing, fried fish fillet and otah for $4.20
I like the fish fillet but was a bit disappointed that it doesn’t automatically come with peanut and ikan bilis.
It’s a decent plate of nasi lemak but I still prefer the other stall in the same hawker centre that serves the green rice.
💵: $4.50
🤔: Sososo good - except I didn't drink the tea 😳👉🏻👈🏻 Other than that, everything else was really yummy!
Only $3 for this nasi lemak with sambal chilli, peanuts, otah, fried egg and a chicken wing.
Rice is fragrant with a tinge of green from the pandan leaves. Chicken wing is crispy with a good marinate. The sambal chilli blend it all together. Delicious and cheap lunch treat!
To its credit, it's a pleasant bowl of laksa, as compared to some laksa which are fiery, oily or choking. Other than that, nothing special.
My favourite thunder tea rice (擂茶饭）, they have the best green sauce (soup) that goes so well with the brown rice and vegetables. Fried egg with bitter gourd and meatball as extra topping 😁
Hardly can you ever find dumpling noodles that's priced at $3! I like the plump dumplings with sufficient fillings, and the skin wasn't too thick too. The noodles were the thinner kind, but it's just my preference to have those slightly thicker egg noodles. Nevertheless, good find in our hawker centres!
Was passing by the market today and stopped by to look around and found this stall selling Fried Shark Lor Mee with a pretty long queue. Jumped in the queue and ordered the small (lol the portion was very big and fulfilling tho) $4 one. They have a bigger $5 portion but I didn't really have much stomach space for it. Dumpling and fried shark meat was crisp and I was so happy that the bowl was full of generous portions of meat (including a big chunk of pork belly and some fried meatballs). Lor Mee sauce was great with the chili and garlic. Felt so guilty eating it afterwards bcs the calorie content is prob pretty high due to all the fried shark meat. But hey, pretty worth it once in a while! :)
This was my to go fishball noodles stall when I interned in the Tanjong Pagar area years back! Noodles are springy in a nice chili concoction that had just enough spice - not too dry or saucy either. I’m not a fan of their chili fishballs but the normal ones along with their fishcake are bouncy and seasoned well! Additional top ups are a bit pricey though, it’s $1 each for extra ingredients or extra noodles.
