Xiao Long Bao The skin of the xiao long bao was delicate fine and almost translucent, filled with well-marinated minced pork and pork broth. The pork broth was subtle in its flavours with a hint of sweetness 》$6 / 5 pcs

Shanghai Spring Roll The Shanghai spring roll was served crispy, crunchy and golden brown on the outside, moist and well-cooked with braised cabbage inside 》$7.20 / 6 pcs

Pan-Fried Buns (生煎包) A small Chinese restaurant hidden under an HDB block in Ang Mo Kio that serves pretty good Chinese dishes. Unlike the usual Chinese restaurant, they have limited seatings and menu but are good enough to make you walk out with a satisfied belly. We went ahead to order some of their signature/recommended items such as xiao long bao, pan-fried buns and spring rolls. The pan-fried buns (生煎包) are my favourite! Pan-fried buns have been a Shanghainese staple that differs from the traditional version of xiao long bao where it holds more soup and is fried upside down - fluffy on top and crispy at the bottom 》$6 / 4 pcs

流沙包 Lava Egg Yolk Bun Over-rated. Perhaps heard too much about it and setting my expectations high. The egg yolk is alright, not too greasy, but the bun fails horribly. I'll stop here.

Dim Sum - Carrot Cake Cathay serves one of the better dim sum in town at a reasonable price. They have managed to maintain a high quality of food for many years.

Baked fillet of sea perch with raw salt. A chef's special for the month.

Shrimp Paste Chicken ($9/$13/$17/$21) For me, har cheong gai is a quintessential order at any zi char establishment. Not doing so is akin to walking out of a theme park without having been on a single ride. This would’ve simply been one of those easily dismissible family meals on a Saturday evening, if not for a plate of what I believe to be one of the best har cheong gai dishes that I’ve tasted to date. - 📍THE PLACE Glance right while you’re senselessly staring into the abyss wondering what to have at Ghim Moh Market & Food Centre, and you’ll notice a signboard. It says “Master Crab”. Hanging lanterns and red on gold on red on gold remind you of a glorious Chinese New Year, and all the money you’ve lost playing Ban Luck and In-Between. - 🍽 THE FOOD 1️⃣ Salted Egg Crab (seasonal price) - Placed an order for this as it happens to be the most popular preparation of crab available at Master Crab. It was alright, but to their credit, the golden salted egg sauce was not overpowering and played well with the mild sweetness of the more-than-subpar crab 2️⃣ Shrimp Paste Chicken ($9/$13/$17/$21) - The showstopper, this was har cheong gai done right. Executed to fundamental perfection with a crispy, thin batter that shattered with every bite to reveal the tender flesh underneath glistening with flavours of shrimp and chicken. Fantastic stuff. 3️⃣ Claypot Frog with Dried Chilli ($16/$24/$32/$40) - very similar to dried chilli chicken, taste and texture wise 4️⃣ Fried Asparagus with Fresh Scallops ($16/$22/$28/$32) - a disappointing handful of 3 or 4 morsels of scallops in a classic mix of fried asparagus, mushrooms and carrots - 🤔 THE VERDICT For a zi char joint selling zi char food at a zi char price point, their signature dishes could use a breath of life and more wok hei. Granted, the har cheong gai here remains to be hidden gem of sorts.

Pai Gu Wang Forgot to take note of this Zi char store because I thought it would be just a normal pai gu wang. But boy was I wrong. It was the most tender and fragrant pai gu wang I ever had! (It's at the non kopitiam coffee shop)

Love my food today!! Love my food today!! CRAB!! Woohoo! I think the sauce was butter&salted egg 😘😋 It was delicious!! First time eating this with my family! 😁👍

Flat White and Latte ☕️

Jimmy Monkey Cafe🧀 Went to Jimmy Monkey Cafe last week and ordered a Grilled Cheesy Crusty ($16), Baked Maple Chipotle Chicken Wings ($18), Bacon Mac n' Cheese Quesadilla ($22), Prawn Aglio Olio ($25), and an Eggplant Moussaka ($23)!😇 Filling for 5 pax~ Overall ratings 7.5/10!😄 Cheesy Crusty and Wings were good, Eggplant Moussaka was delicious, but Alio Olio was quite spicy and not really feeling the Quesadilla😅 Would head back again for the Eggplant Moussaka tho💯

brunch/one-north Jimmy Monkey serves great food and coffee, though being an Australian-inclined café the choice are limited to bread-based western. Here is the all day sourdough and egg with additions of bacon and wilted spinach. Great crispy bread, decently-runny egg (adjust the seasoning by yourself as the egg by itself is not heavily seasoned), crispy bacon. They offer 4 different spreads and I chose vegemite. Wholesome brunch indeed!

Risotto Mushroom 🍄 $12 They call this the risotto. Points for presentation though. Not your usual risotto or even Italian. This is just a snack and don't order it as your meal. Only to be had if you are feeling adventurous. Mushroom was too less to taste. Mostly just the rice bowl. Soft and chewy but with really mild flavor. 3 on 5. Hit and miss for me

Pepperoni pizza $15 Not bad for the price. Pepperoni was less than expected. The pizza size was good. Taste also satisfactory. I wouldn't come here just for the pizza. This is only 1 of thr options. Rating 3 on 5

Peppermint brownie 🍫🙀😻! Filled with sweetness and mint taste combined with moist fudgey brownie at e bottom ✨ Another ❤

Eggs Royale with Dark Chocolate Infused Hollandaise Sauce [Closed] Eggs Royale served with red wine & dark chocolate infused hollandaise sauce. A little too overwhelming and slightly disappointed in the hollandaise sauce, but a good try nevertheless.

loved the huge lychee rose Macaron at Au Chocolat! aside from the fact that the filling tasted reasonably of lychee, there were actual little lychee bits! 4/5
