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.

Spicy Thai - Spicy Cafe @ Aljunied, Singapore.

I found myself in this neighbourhood one day, to go for a particular stall, but it was closed, and I remembered reading about this Thai restaurant previously.

Normal condiments you'll get at any Thai restaurant. Potent chilli though, just the way I like it:)

As usual I'll order a tom yam soup and mango or papaya salad, but this round I opted the mango
instead.

Food is good, tom yam was spicy, seafood portions was generous. The mango salad was delicious, sourish and spicy. A very good lunch indeed.

asam laksa @ penang seafood restaurant @ aljunied

yesss, theres only a handful of places that serves asam laksa in singapore, i've been through a few, and imho this is the best. first off the gravy looks weird, but the taste is there. might be the generous amount of fish they put in, hence the gravy is thick compared to the usual watery/slightly clear broth.

this is the closest as you can get in singapore, although some might beg to differ. My benchmark would be ayer itam laksa market in penang itself. although i was only introduced to that stall few years back, that one came out tops.

This shop serves other sze char dishes as well, good recommendations from what ive read, but yet to try, will definitely check it out next time with a bunch of people. Oh, do check out the Prince fried bee hoon, its a killer!
