椿风满面 (Chun Feng Man Mian), Amoy Street Food Centre

椿风满面 (Chun Feng Man Mian), truffle char siew noodle

This stall (#02-114 Amoy Street Food Centre, 7 Maxwell Road) which is a relative newcomer has been featured in some write-ups. They do wanton mee - portions which are a tad more pricey than what can be found in the general price range. Tried their bowl which featured truffle that the stall claimed is infused with truffle paste and truffle powder. Kinda like the one at Bee Kee Wanton Noodle but a couple of steps up. I thought it was decent tasting. Char siew's not bad. Mine didn't have the lumpfish roe which was mentioned.

While it was worth a try, I don't think I'll be getting it again now that I know what it's like.

G Meal, Seah Im Food Centre

G Meal, smoked chicken rice

Unusual name for a chicken rice stall (#01-18 Seah Im Food Centre, 2 Seah Im Road). Then again, they aren't like the usual stalls as well. There's only fried and smoked chicken to be had. What's that again? Smoked chicken rice? The latter was what intrigued me so I got myself a half chicken plate. There's some smokiness in the bird. Meat was dry. I wouldn't eat it again. The rice was pretty good though with sufficient flavouring and salt.

Two Guys, Seah Im Food Centre

Two Guys, lamb hawawshi

Came across Two Guys (#01-22 Seah Im Food Centre, 2 Seah Im Road) but there was only one guy there.😏 Looked like another one of numerous kebab stalls around. The proprietor recommended their hawawshi so I picked the one with lamb and added cheese. From what I gathered, it's an Egyptian flatbread stuffed with meat and onions. Looked much like a quesadilla. Not bad tasting but I should omit the mayo the next time. Their menu on Foodpanda appears to have a larger variety than what's displayed at the stall though.

Lao Chen Ji (老陳記), Holland Drive Food Centre

Lao Chen Ji (老陳記), Holland Drive Food Centre

Lao Chen Ji (#02-43 Holland Drive Market & Food Centre, 44 Holland Drive) is the third of my "yong tau food trilogy" at Holland Drive Market. The first two were Hakka Noodle and Fifty Yong Tau Foo. What distinguishes this stall from the previous was the option for kolo mee which I don't think is offered elsewhere. Great saucing with flavour from shallot and their delicious chilli sauce on those curly noodles. In my opinion, all three of them are worth an eat or more because of the quality of their ingredients. If I had to pick favourites, I'd rank Lao Chen Ji and Fifty Yong Tau Foo a little higher.

Egg pratas from Hajjah Syed Meeral

Hajjah Syed Meeral, egg prata

Breakfast on a Sunday morning at Hajjah Syed Meeral. Not much stalls are open at this time of the week at Pasir Panjang Food Centre. This was a satisfying plate with two egg pratas and mutton curry. Did I mention that I enjoyed it? The texture was a little doughy like the old school stuff and I loved how the flavour from the rendered mutton fat flavoured that curry.

Madras Coffee House’s, Kerbau Road

Madras Coffee House’s, masala chai tea

Stopped by Madras Coffee House's (#01-06, 54 Kerbau Road) for a couple of masala chai. While the address states Kerbau Road, it's actually located at the junction of Kerbau Road and Chander Road. A short trot away from Mr BriyaniGandhi Restaurant and Swaadhisht

The place is a roadside stop for drinks and snacks so there's no seats. One gets munchies and drinks to go or you can eat by the road side. Closest thing to a street food experience we have. Their masala mix wasn't very intense but the flavour's there. Tea's milky and not too sweet. Will come back in the future for them.
