This place (Blk 85 Bedok North St 4) is supposed to be pretty popular I hear from some colleagues. This was one of the old styled hawker centre/wet market places that isn't so much of a common sight these days. Think Tiong Bahru Market. Strangely, half the stalls in this hawker center seemed to be closed in the middle of the day and the lunch crowd was almost threadbare. I was pointed out to a Hainanese styled curry rice which reminded me of the ones that had in Tiong Bahru Market and Maxwell Food Centre a very long time ago.
One gets a plate of rice with 2 meats and 2 vegetables at a very affordable $2.50. It looked to be a rather good lunch deal. One might get the idea that portions aren't very big because of how cheap it was but I personally thought it was a fair portion. I only wished that they were more generous with the crispy breaded pork chops.
Located in his hawker centre was also a stall call Western Food 85 that does fried pork knuckles. I'm not going to even compare to the German restaurants. Suffice it is to say that for $12.50, you get pretty much what you pay for. There's not much in the way of presentation. The meat wasn't too bad but watch out for the excessive fats under the skin. Tasted like something that's good to go with beer.
