From the Burpple community

Whilst most bloggers invariably focus on YLX's meat options (nothing wrong with that), they also serve a really good fish & chips.

You get not one, not two but three good sized pieces of white fish that are battered and deep fried on the spot (which kinda explains the long waiting time but I digress) for only $10. Thee breaded crust is thin and crisp and the fish meat thick and flaky. It is also nicely and mildly seasoned. Whatsmore, the fish comes with a healthy (or some may say unhealthy) serving of chips, slaw and that tasty little bun.

My only complaint is that they serve the fish on top of a dollop of tartar sauce taken out of a plastic container from the fridge. The temperature contrast does a disservice to the fish and renders the piece on top of the tartar sauce soggy real quick. I am not going to name the supplier but the tartar sauce tastes lumpy and "artificial" and did not go well with the fish IMHO. Do yourself a favour and give the tartar sauce a miss!

Be prepared to queue and come ready to wait is what I will tell any #burpplers checking out Ye Lai Xiang ("YLX") at Maxwell FC.

YLX serves hainanese-style western food. Their prices are slightly higher compared to other hawkers serving similar food but I still found them rather reasonably priced considering their rather generous portions.

For $9.50, you get two rather large pieces of chicken chop which are made to order. Seared nicely on the outside, the meat remains tender and juicy. The brown sauce is a little on the weak side but we really like the fresh crinkle cut fries and the warm fluffy bun which is apparently specially sourced from a local bakery.

The portion very big. The chicken chop was grilled like teppanyaki style. It is very tender. The sauce wasnt mushroom or black pepper. Seems abit like sweet chilli but too bland for me. The fries not salted. The bread was cold and not crispy. They do give butter. The portion is worth the price but taste wise not good.

3.75⭐ Finally visit Maxwell for the Western food. It's always ranked one of the best hawker western food. There was a queue when we reached for dinner and waited for abt 15min. WB ordered chicken cutlet while I ordered chicken chop. The portion is huge and served with fries, bread and mixed vege. I liked the chicken cutlet as the skin is crisp but WB prefer Wild Wild West Chicken cutlet as he find the cutlet slightly dry. The bread is soft and fluffy, I read online that the bread is sourced from a local bakery. I usually don't like such fries as this is those typical hawker/foodcourt western food type of fries and normally not very crsipy. But the fries here are crispy to my liking. Nothing to shout about on the mixed vege, it's just those frozen pack vege.

Old school hawker western food anyone😎? The Pork Chop ($7.50) from Tasty Barbecue at Maxwell Food Centre (#01-94) is very tender and the sauce is a delicious balance of sweet and savoury. It comes with a super soft bun, baked beans and fries. The size of the pork chop is very generous. Nothing too fancy, but highly satisfying.
