Welcome to Jalan Besar.

Plum Soda ($5)
Strong, fizzy, and citrusy!

Ice Lemongrass ($3)
Smooth, lightly sweet and pleasant!

A bit underwhelming, not shiok enough! The portion was okay, but the cockles were too small to truly enjoy. The unique Thai flavours were there, and the spiciness was mild. Mehhh…

Glass noodles soaked up the savoury soy and oyster sauce beautifully, making them super flavourful. Ginger and coriander roots add that authentic Thai touch. Served with sliced button mushrooms and five easy-to-deshell prawns. No need for rice as this dish alone will fill you up.

Pretty well executed! A big, fresh fish, sliced and neatly laid on a fish-shaped pan with heat below. It’s then poured over with a savoury stock, further cooking the fish and infusing it with flavour. The addition of manao gives it a refreshing citrusy tang. The soup was rich, sweet, spicy, sourish, and umami, hitting that perfect Thai balance of flavours. The fish was soft, delicate, and fresh, we really enjoyed this one.

Not the best looking dish, but definitely the best tasting one! A classic must-order when in Thailand. Briny, chewy, chunky crab meat infused with aromatic, smooth, custardy eggy curry sauce. The more you eat, the more addictive it gets. The spiciness is toned down to suit local taste buds. A must-get, as this dish is quite rare in Singapore. Probably the only place that serves it, let me know if you find others!

Pretty good Thai cuisine, with flavours just like what you would get in Thailand. 😋

WAH idk why i need to experience things for myself to believe but fr as all posts on lemon8 said, the scallop rose pasta rly abit overhyped.... 🫣 it's legit what u see is what u get. also the scallop abit fishy imo but i'm also not a seafood fan so maybe less reliable LOL. but it looks pretty la & it's not say not nice, the pasta wasn't soggy & the sauce was creamy & sour (tomatoey) enough. it's just like that lor, unimpressionable.

the beef don q yummy! i think abit stupid that they served the beef don v early then the pasta like a good 25 mins later only, like abit poor kitchen planning & the restaurant wasn't v crowded also

but anws service was rlyyy good! think people recco-ed the stock chicken pot & scallion oil pork dandan noodles. might be back to try that!

otherwise i think this wouldn't rly be somewhere i'd revisit 🤍

Dropped by the favourite coffee spot and it is always exciting to see how they have been offering some bakes that are not part of its usual line-up of the late. Skimmed through the menu and managed to find the Scallion & Cream Cheese Filled Donut during our more recent trips there — whilst Brawn & Brains Coffee had been serving up different variations of their donuts featuring quite a good selection of flavours, most of the flavours do seem to surround around more sweet and dessert-y flavour profiles. The offering of the Scallion & Cream Cheese Filled Donut pretty much stood out to us quite a fair bit as such; this being a savoury donut that is unlike the other flavours that they have been offering thus far.

The Scallion & Cream Cheese Filled Donut takes the form of a Bomboloni which is the Italian-style filled donut — very much the same as what one would expect out of their other variations of donuts here. With that being said, considering how the Scallion & Cream Cheese Filled Donut is a savoury item, the donut itself does come rolled in less sugar crystals and only on the underside. Digging into the donut, the donut comes well filled with cream cheese — the cream cheese carrying a smooth, luscious and creamy texture while not being too heavy with the slight tang and the hints of dairy. The addition of scallions provided an extra note of flavours — the fillings of the donut can be described to taste like something pretty similar to sour cream and onions; all that while the donut remains all fluffy and light. Not usually a fan of savoury donuts and we would probably still find ourselves craving for the Kaya-filled donut more the next time we are going for a donut here, though this version of a savoury donut still works out very well for those looking for savoury donuts out there.

One of my favourite eateries has a limited-time buffet. Ala carte but portions are manageable. I've tried this rice before and I can vouch for it. That's its real name btw.
