Regarding Margaret Drive Sin Kee Chicken Rice (新記馳名雞飯) at Holland Drive

I just realised that the other Margaret Drive Chicken Rice branches that used to be around have disappeared except for this one at Holland Drive which is Margaret Drive Sin Kee Chicken Rice. Up till recently, I also hadn't realised that that the name "Sin Kee" was on their signage. 😬 Always though they were just another branch of Margaret Drive Chicken Rice. 

This does make things less murky, at least for me. It's the stall that I've been eating at since their days as Sin Kee Famous Chicken Rice at Mei Ling Food Centre. I'm going to disregard the confusing branding among various similarly named stalls and move on with just this one.

This was from maybe a month back. Still they they're great without the chilli sauce which allows for some nuances like the flavour of the rendered chicken drippings over the poached bird to be more discernible.

Jurong Popiah (裕廊132薄饼), Redhill

Decent poh piah from this stall. The wrap wasn't particularly firm but it's not a dealbreaker. The reddish looking roll has extra chilli and garlic - nice. Love that extra punch in them. Stall's located in that same coffeeshop as Penang Handmade Pau and Daeng M.Y..

Ah Hua Teo Chew Fish Ball Noodle (亞華潮州鱼圆面), Ayer Rajah Food Centre

Trying Ah Hua Teo Chew Fish Ball Noodle (Stall #43 Ayer Rajah Food Centre, 503 West Coast Drive) for the first time.

This was their snow crab noodle. Not real snow crab included obviously. Just crab sticks.

Decent-ish. There's sliced pork, minced pork, mushrooms and crab sticks. There was a sweetness in the saucing that borderline bothered me and I think it's from the stewed mushrooms. Speaking of mushrooms, these weren't as tender as I preferred.

Daeng M.Y., Redhill

Lontong from Daeng M.Y. (80 Eating House, 80 Redhill Lane). This stall's in the same coffeeshop as Penang Handmade Pau. Crowd here can be pretty intense in the weekend because the queue never seems to go away during the morning hours. Gravy's fairly lemak. Serunding has to be requested for - seems these guys don't provide them by default. Not bad. And yes, those were paru.

Handmade Carrot Cake (手制菜头粿), Tekka Food Centre

Black radish cake from Handmade Carrot Cake (#01-301 Tekka Market & Food Centre, 665 Buffalo Road). Might not look like much and I was even thinking that a better job could have been done with the caramelisation. But there was a nice flavour coming from the kueh and one could also tell that it wasn't a mass produced variety from the texture. I liked that. For anyone that might want to know, they do fried radish cake sticks too.

Prata tsunami from RK Eating House

I remember eating from RK Eating House many years back and blacklisting them. Didn't have a good experience then. This was a prata tsunami which we had recently. 😬 It's one of those numerous banjir rendition with soft boiled egg, curry mutton and chicken tikka doused with dal, curry and sambal.

Chicken tikka's not smokey. But otherwise, it kinda tasted like how I imagined it. Didn't dislike it but I don't think I'll be getting it again.
