We love our hawker food {Part III}. Being a typical Singaporean 🇸🇬, I spotted a queue that started forming before the stall’s official opening hours and quickly joined in the snaking line.✌🏻 I was finally rewarded with this prized dish in the largest portion, after a 20-minute wait. 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Buried beneath the rich and savoury satay gravy, we uncovered a bountiful mix of fresh ingredients including cockles, prawns 🍤, sliced cuttlefish, prawns, sliced meat, tau pok [a.k.a. fried tofu puff], kangkong, beansprouts and beehoon [a.k.a. rice vermicelli]. In fact, every strand of beehoon and ingredient coated with the gloriously rich, thick and savoury peanut satay sauce is pure awesome-ness!

We love our hawker food {Part III}. Leng Kee’s fried oyster is a must-order for me whenever I visited Bukit Timah Food Centre. The tradition continues, even after the stall moves to the interim market.

This plate of fried oyster [a.k.a. orh luak] is just plain satisfying. Served with decent-sized oysters 🦪 and combination of crispy eggy bits with soft, gooey texture.

We love our hawker food {Part III}. This weekend, we visited the interim market to enjoy our favourite carrot cake! It still as good as it gets — With crispy, eggy exterior and plentiful of crunchy ‘chye poh’ [a.k.a. preserved radish] in every bite. 😋

We love our hawker food {Part II}. Braved through the beer-drinking crowds for these plump and meaty morsels that is so worth checking out for its affordable price and legit native Chinese fare! The handmade xiao long bao with slightly thicker skin boasts an impossibly flavourful broth and juicy meat that we just can’t get enough of.

Catching up over a long overdue meal at a Hainanese western steak & seafood restaurant with an old-school charm. And nothing brings me more joy than sharing a hearty meal with my dear friend @shook_wai of 34 years.

Their signature Hainanese pork chop is one of my favourites. It feature an uber crispy, golden brown crust and beautifully thin slice of pork chop with a faint pink center, paired with this delightfully savoury tomato ketchup worcestershire sauce! The sirloin steak is decent and substantial though slightly overcooked. But the show stealer is definitely the baked potato with crispy garlic 🧄 bits, and generously slathered with sour cream and spring onions! 🫶🏻

I also can’t resist ordering some of their well-loved starters including fresh oysters 🦪 and escargots smothered in garlic butter. ☺️

It was a manic week on the home front as I was rushing to do some CNY preparation + shopping during this Christmas holiday break. We finally managed to end it off with a nice meal at this cosy restaurant for Christmas.

We tucked into their fresh salmon sashimi, moreish calamari and sautéed clams, flavourful and luscious crab meat & prawns in ragu sauce, mouthwatering parma ham with sweet melon and a nourishing bowl of chilled double-boiled bird’s nest soup dessert. Yums! 😋
