Jaffna Duck Curry
Duck cooked tender in light coconut gravy, creamy yet gentle with spice warmth. Felt different from the usual and easily my favourite of the meal 》$34

Seeni Sambol
Caramelised onion that’s rich and sticky with tamarind giving a sweet‑tangy lift. Paired beautifully with the curry and rice 》$8

Dallo Baduma
Crispy fried calamari with a buttery chilli kick. Good crunch and flavour though it didn’t fare as well compared to the duck curry 》$26

Yellow Rice
Fragrant and fluffy, cashews adding bite and caramelised onions bringing sweetness. Ordered the half portion and it’s still enough for sharing between two 》$5

The exterior comes out golden brown and cracks with a clean crunch. Inside, the crab filling is soft and creamy, carrying gentle sweetness that blends with Sri Lankan spices. The dip adds a garlicky and peppery lift that brightens the richness, making each bite layered and lively 》$18

I usually come here for supper and the prata is reliably good, crisp outside with soft layers inside. This time I decided to have prata in the morning instead. The onion prata still carried its sweetness and bite but the plain prata came out overly crispy and hard, more like a biscuit, missing that slightly chewy, doughy texture I prefer.

The curry and sambal‑style chilli gravy were still good, giving the familiar flavour and kick. Just that the plain prata this morning was disappointing compared to the consistent nights I have had here. Not sure if it was a different person cooking but the difference was noticeable.

Plain Prata 》$2.80 / 2 Pcs
Onion Prata 》$2.20

Scrumptious high-cholesterol food. Fiery but delish sup kambing. One of the best sup tulang in the land. You don’t know what finger lickin’ good is until you’ve been here!

Iced black tea with lime, a classic local drink to have. The sweetness was balanced, and the lime added a refreshing citrus lift.

Strong masala flavour with aromatic tea and sweet milkiness. The ratio of spice to tea was spot on, making it fragrant and very enjoyable to drink. The blend was bold yet smooth, never overpowering, and always shiok.

Ordering drinks from my favourite stall whenever I visit Yishun Park Hawker Centre. Shahana’s is one of those places where the consistency and balance of flavours keep me coming back.

We’ve been coming here for 30 years. Excellent fish head curry and chicken liver. The other dishes are not great, but what the heck, you should come here for the fish head and the atmosphere. Friendly and efficient service. The new US Ambassador (who is Indian from India, not Native American) should come as a neighbour to renew with his roots.

Established since January 2007, this chain of casual eateries is among the more ubiquitous, making it a reliable and convenient option.
.
Their rendition veers towards the rustic Kampung style, with lightly seasoned fluffy rice grains stir-fried with wispy whisked chicken egg, crisp fried ikan bilis / anchovies, crisp kang kong / water spinach, tender boneless chicken chunks, and topped with a bright sunny side up chicken egg with runny yolk.
.
Bold flavour is derived from the wok hei / breath of the wok, with smoky grainy sweet meaty savoury fishy salty vegetal eggy spice flavour. The chili paste has a fiery salty spice flavour, gripping and lingering on the palate.

This long-serving brand was established in October 1974 by Chellappan Sankaranathan, who named the casual restaurant after the Apollo 11 moon landing, with the hope that the restaurant would 'take-off' like a rocket.
.
Their plain version is amongst the best around, with smoky bready sweet savoury flavour and crisp chewy fluffy texture, with decent char-brown colour from high heat in the tandoor oven. By contrast, their garlic version is amongst the more straightforward around, with smoky bready savoury spice flavour and crisp chewy fluffy texture.
