great places to eat:
duck rice at buona vista. it's in this little row of shophouses in
a residential district, and there's absolutely NO parking space.
owned by a family, where all the men look alike..
very
good duck rice sauce, and pretty cheap as well, with generous
helpings.
pow sing chicken rice at serangoon gardens. it's good for all sorts
of peranakan food, though the standard appears to be dropping. the
uncle can be very fierce to fussy customers, and doesnt react well
to ppl asking for more blacksauce/chilli. the chicken sauce is
great! chicken is tender, and rice is very fragrant. worth trying
also is the baby kailan, and black pepper deer meat. the latter is
VERY hot, but extremely tender and succulent. absolutely
delicious!!
sg is a hotbed of great food. chompchomp is the best mix of allll
sorts of food, though prices are a little steep. most notable are
the bbq stingrays, fried banana, and hokkien mee. but be prepared
to put up with MAJOR attitude from the last stall...
also at sg, is killiney rd kopitiam's branch. famous for its kaya
bread with meltingggg butter(chow yun fatt patronises the
store!!!), french toast and half-boiled egg. definitely a great
place for breakfast.
claypot rice at geylang, lorong 23(??). it's veryyyyy good. you're
advised to call them just before you set off, cos it takes roughly
1/2hr to cook the rice, and you'll die of hunger cravings if you
wait for them to cook, with other tables tucking into their food
already. also try their bamboo clams, and fried fish.
Kopitiam at meridian has a store selling great fried chicken
cutlet. gd for a meal break after playing pool at monster (if
you're in that age group.) the sauce is veryyy good, and the
chicken extremely tender.
russian food, at shashlik, far east plaza/sq (not the teenager's
hangout. the one besides planet hollywood), level 6. their borsch
soup is MARVELLOUS, esp if there's lots of sour cream. worth trying
is the egg-millionaire, escargots, and shashlik steak, plus their
famous dessert.
cant remm
the name, but it's when they douse an icecream cake in flaming
alcohol... hot and cold together, yummmm.
