Nam San Mackerel Otah @ Joo Chiat Road, Singapore.

Came here did a quick tapau of some otahs and nasi lemak.


They have a few tables inside if you prefer to dine in.


Nasi lemak came in a decent portion. Sambal was not bad, satisfied my cravings. This place is famous for its otah. I had 3 different versions of otah, and it all tasted good. Simple breakfast and awesome otah.

Alif Nasi Padang @ Aljunied Ave 2 Market & Food Centre, Singapore.

I actually like coming to this hawker centre as it's very quiet and ample tables. Been reading about this nasi padang stall which serves awesome food at affordable prices.



First time here, I ordered a soto with rice cakes. I thought the sambal hitam was nothing so I poured a few spoonfuls of it. Damn that sambal was freaking spicy. Don't get me wrong, the soto was superb, the broth was just how I like it to be, generous portions of meat and beansprouts.  I'll gladly wack the sambal again!


Second time here I ordered a nasi padang with beef lungs, chicken drumstick in spicy coconut gravy, mussels and sambal goreng with the sambal belacan. The food is good, hmmm I seriously should have kept this stall to myself.

Quentin's Eurasian Restaurant @ Ceylon Road, Singapore.

A bunch of us, dinner with kids friendly (they have a playroom for them) and I've been dying to check this place out, managed to persuade them to come here.


We had some keropok/crackers for starters. Came with a sambal belacan dip. From here onward I knew everything was gonna be excellent. The sambal belacan was a deal breaker for me, awesome stuff.


Corned beef fried rice for the kids, damn it. I wish I ordered that for myself, one of those comfort food which is yummy.

We ordered curry debal ox-tail, I think it's the above(the beers were kicking in). A must order, the meat tenderly slides off the bone, the curry, spicy and hits the spot. Ok by this point I forgot what is what.





I remembered eating some prawns, fish, petai, chap chye and eggplant. I have no regrets coming here, the food was awesome. It's like I'm having a home cooked meal in a restaurant setting. Definitely will be back with a bigger crowd to order more stuff. If I can remember which dish is what, was happily catching up with some old friends.

Amigo @ Changi Village, Singapore.

Changi village, another hawker centre with loads of good food. I love my koew teow and this round tested Amigo's chicken chop hor fun.


Queue can be pretty long, so be prepared.



3.50 Sgd for a chicken chop on a bed of hor fun with nice sauce, killer stuff. Definitely one on my list for this hawker centre.

Amok @ Siem Reap, Cambodia.

Just opposite the Old Market is this restaurant called Amok. Good chill out place for beers and people watching.




Loved the internal decor, cosy.


Fried spring roll for starters.



And the amok degustation menu. The food here is good, beers are the usual 50 cents USD a pop, people watching opposite the market coupled with the slow pace of life, just lovely.

Cayo Coco @ Siem Reap, Cambodia.

I was actually at the opposite bar, chilling having some happy hours. After a while I just can't help myself and walked over to check out the food. The owner was very friendly and she delivered the food to the opposite bar. Chatted with her briefly and it seems she sells Madagascar food. Talk about all the way in Siem Reap.



 This is the fish donuts.


Crab claws.

Beef samossa.

This should be the skewers on top and satay below.


As we had dinner plans, we ordered the 2 usd combo which consists of the fish donuts, crab claws and beef samossa. Damn the snacks went freaking well with the beers. Highly recommended, why did I not found this place sooner. Now I'm wondering how does the mains fare. Oh well, another reason to come back Siem Reap to check out this place for mains.

Beatnik @ Siem Reap, Cambodia.

Major cravings for a burger, did some googling and located near Pub st, off we went.


Menu was extensive and the prices was reasonable in US dollars.


Ordered a classic burger with cheese, came with thick cut fries. At first I was a bit put off with the display, looks pretty normal. Once I bite into it though, damn the whole perception changed. This is one mean burger with casual looks. Pair it with local draft beer, now I know why this place came highly recommended. Good stuff.

Khmer Food and Pho Yong @ Siem Reap, Cambodia.

So we walked past this place a few times, and it's always packed with locals and tourists alike. Plus what's not to love a good bowl of pho.


The stalls are side by side in front of a convenience store.




Beef pho (USD3), portion a bit small, but after you mix in the vegetables and everything. It actually filled me up.



We ordered a fried rice with lok lak from the Khmer Food stall to share. Was good but I'm bias to the pho.

Bonus tip the other stall near the entrance of the convenience store, serves awesome kebabs! Good for after drinking hunger pangs.

Meat Smith @ Telok Ayer, Singapore.

Came down for a quick happy hour, and ordered some bites. Damn, surprisingly the food is good.


The beef brisket, to die for. They do it freaking awesome here.


Bacon, mac and cheese, enough said. I'll definitely be back for a proper dinner with the works.
