Must Go Places

You really don't need to spend a bomb on seriously good Italian pasta. The Wicked Garlic's Aglio Olio is very much raved about, and costs a mere $5.70 on its own! But of course, you'd want to add some prawns (+$6), mushrooms (+$1), or even some bacon (+$1). Even then, it makes up to be a more than decent pocket-friendly meal. Nicely put by Tastemaker Shawn Loh, 'Amazingly wok hei prawns, and wickedly value for money. It's the PSLE top student of aglio olios seriously, why it doesn't have its own Brands Essence of Chicken endorsement deal is beyond me.' Their Carbonara ($8.70) is superb as well!

The braised pork cheek brioche toast here so cheeky and scored big time.

Generous chunks of portobello mushroom folded in with stretchy, gooey mozarella in a crisp prata parcel. What's not to like? I come here way too often.

Who doesn't love a juicy meatball coated in lipsmacking cheese sauce? If you don't, you must be leading a very loveless life. Cue judgey face.

Dreaming of snacking on these fragrant fries right now.

What's for lunch everyone?

Lady Hyde - One of signature brunch item on the menu. A good twist on the classic Croque Madame with their special Hebi Hiam sprinkled between the brioche, cheddar honey baked ham and pineapple slice. Lightly spiced, sweet and savoury combination.

Enjoying a little scramble brunch with chunky flakes of smoked salmon and freshly toasted traditional bagel, plus a well executed corned beef and pastrami hash with a sunny side up. Love the smoky flavor profile of the pastrami and corn beef which might just be the best on the island, we certainly will stop by Sacha and Sons again.

$16. Toasted English muffin, ham, poached eggs with Champagne hollandaise. The eggs are cooked perfectly, with oozy egg yolk. little details like the edible flowers that contrast the colours of the hollandaise sauce, adding that little bit of magic to the presentation. If you’re not keen on ham, there’s always the Eggs Florentine with spinach instead.

Hungry now? 😝😜😁

Because fries are in order for Friday. Waited half an hour for this wicked stuff, which would have pissed me off if they hadn't been so nommilicious.

Ok, to be honest, I am not into "lor mee" all that much. However, I would queue for this stall's, and unfailingly, I would order the largest portion (pictured above).
For me, it's all about the tastiness and quality of their food especially in terms of toppings, which by the way, is very good and fresh. We're talking crispy deep-fried fish skin (with some meat still attached), immaculately sliced stewed pork belly that's full of flavour, "ngoh hiang", "lu dan" (or egg that has been braised in a fragrant dark sauce) and big, long-ish chunks of fish meat. I don't know about you but I prefer my fish recognisable, so minuscule fish flakes are of no interest to me.
Service here gets an "A" as well. The hawker boss is always friendly, perfectly bilingual and very organised and efficient. Even when the queue looks dauntingly long, it moves pretty fast.
Do note that this stall is located at the back of Old Airport Road Hawker Centre, facing the big public car park. Unit no.: #01-124.
