Also known as 肉夹馍, a street snack commonly found all over China; and I might have just found my favourite tasting one in Singapore!
The flatbread is significantly less sweet than our usual mantous, yet slightly crisp on the outside while it sandwiches copious amounts of chopped spiced stewed pork belly, complete with bits of rendered fat and gelatinous pork skins. Best consumed within half an hour, otherwise the dough starts to get too stiff and doughy.
They also make crazy good dumplings and jjajang noodles but I’ll save that for another post.
At 3.5bucks a piece, it’s practically filling enough to be a meal on its own, and for this quality, it’s superbly affordable if you ask me.

食香阁 is located on level 2 of Bishan’s Bus Interchange. You won’t miss them! They usually have a longest queues. I was there on a Saturday just before the lunch crowd hit, at 1140hrs, approximately 15mins wait for food upon ordering.
