满族全羊铺 Manchurian Lamb HotPot - 羊肉汤火锅 @ Chinatown, Singapore.

Lamb Hotpot but Machurian style. Lets check it out. We ordered a lamb hotpot, some skewers and some grilled meats.

And finally top it off with a lamb fried rice? Hotpot was good, meat was tender. Grilled meats is my favourites here. Dumpling was not bad too. If anything, make sure order the fried rice too.

Madras Lane Yong Tau Foo @ Petaling Street, KL, Malaysia.

Back here again and this round went out to check out the ytf.

Waiting time can be quite a bit as the queue can get long.

Choose your ytf pieces, and wait for it to get done. Everything is self service, so you'll have to wait for your food.

Ordered the ccf again from the stall opposite.

The ytf was good, the soup was light and helps cut the oily stuff. Definitely a good place for ytf only drawback was the queue.

Madras Lane Hawker Food @ Petaling Street, KL, Malaysia.

This place is bustling with locals and tourists. They're famous for the ytf, curry laksa, asam laksa and ccf.

Check out those see hum/blood cockles, for the curry laksa.

Asam laksa condiments.

The ccf is definitely one of the best in kl, silky smooth and chewy.

The curry laksa had an awesome thickful broth. The see hums were succulent and the tau pok soaked up the broth nicely.

Asam laksa had a nice tangy spicy kick to it. Big chunk of fish on top. I definitely enjoyed the soup to the last bit.

Red Star Restaurant @ Chinatown, Singapore.

Dim Sum galore for brunch on a weekend.

Love the ambience, old school setting with bustling people and staff.

Ordered the usual stuff.

There was a few hit and misses but overall I find the food good. Will definitely come back with a bigger group to order more stuff.

Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice @ Maxwell Food Centre, Singapore.

Call me bias or what, first time I've tried Tian Tian chicken rice, I never looked back. There's other chicken rice which is equally or near good, but this stall in Maxwell always have a sentimental spot for me as this was my first stall I had my Singapore Hainanese chicken rice.

This round I was pressed for time, had to do a tapau/take away.

Chicken rice with a side dish of beansprouts and cuttlefish. Everyone has their own style of eating it, and mine is sprinkle the thick dark soya sauce.

Add a generous dollop of chilli with a bit of garlic. Good stuff. Chicken is moist and tender. The beansprouts was crunchy, cuttlefish perfectly done and the chilli sauce is a killer. A good wholesome meal.

Fat Cow Burger @ Temple Street, Chinatown, Singapore.

A burger joint smacked right in the center of Chinatown. Had to check it out based on numerous of good reviews I've read, and boy were they right.

Pic above is the Fat Moo Mooo Burger. Beef patty, with pulled beef, semi charcoal bun, with the works, salad on the side, and thick wedges. All this for a whopping 18 sgd and you'll get a free soft drink as well. Talk about being easy on the wallet, and the taste? A very good burger. I like it. Beef patty was fine, portions is generous, the wedges was done perfectly. I think I've found my next favourite burger place.

Manbok Chinatown @ Chinatown, Singapore.

A bunch of us was meeting for a weekend lunch, and one of them had some craving for korean food. Read a few good reviews and decided to give it a go. The best part? It's buffet style and the lunch only cost 18sgd nett!

Ingredients for the army stew.

Basic starters/sides some salads, kimchi (which is good!) and deserts some fresh cut fruits.

Yes this is the meat part, basically you get marinated chicken, some pork cuts, beef, squid and octopus. There's also the other section which they serve cooked stuff, rice rolls, steam rice, japchae (honestly the japchae is good, but I try to refrain myself from eating a lot, and focus more on the grilled meats) and soup.

From another section, concoct your own dipping sauce and grab some lettuce leaves to go with the grilled meats. You get one grilling plate and the one on the left, is like a mini steamboat for you to cook the army stew.

The meat selection is pretty decent for the price you pay. I like the ambience, good conversation with friends over good food.

I find the army stew enjoyable actually, more like cooking your own instant noodle with loads of good stuff. Just put in the chilli paste up to your preference, add some noodles, eggs, greens, tofu and some other items  Quite soothing to end the meal. For the price we paid per pax, I can't find any fault with this place. The food is replenished fast, servers are friendly and the quality of food is decent.

Shang Hai Chee Cheong Fun @ Smith Street Food Centre, Chinatown, Singapore.

For a decent ccf quick fix I'll normally go to Smith St Food Centre. The food is good and there's hardly any queue or it moves fast.

Had the chicken ccf, 2 rolls for sgd 2.80. The black sauce with a dollop of sambal, generous sprinkling of sesame seeds on smooth ccf, simple pleasures in life.

Sisaket Thai Food @ Maxwell Food Centre, Chinatown, Singapore.

Back in one of my favourite hawker centres, been eyeing this thai food stall for quite some time, and decided to give it a try this round.

Seafood tom yam plus white rice. For 5 sgd, very generous portions.

This tom yam packs a spicy kick, just the way I like it. You know it's good after a few mouthfuls you start to sweat. Another stall I've found for a quick tom yam fix.

Erich's Wuerstelstand @ Chinatown, Singapore.

Haven't been to this stall for ages, and as I just came back from melbourne, I still had the craving for bratwursts. He has since shifted and moved into a coffeeshop, not far where he was located previously.

He has now expanded and sells home made bread as well.

Bratwursts with sauerkraut, still taste good. A bit pricey but hey, this is the best/authentic as you can get in Singapore.

Poy Kee Yong Tau Foo @ People's Park Food Centre, Chinatown, Singapore.

It's been quite some time since I was here for food, so I was walking around, and I've heard of two infamous ytf stalls here, and boy was I in luck, this particular one had like 5 people queueing. First time I'm trying it, and it's good stuff.

  I did a take away, 5 bucks portion. Heh was being a bit greedy, think the smallest portion was priced at 3 sgd.

Nice al dente noodles, topped with a few ikan bilis(anchovies) and some greens. Just nice.

 And the ytf, nicely done, generous portions for 5 bucks, soup was beautiful, just what I needed for to cure my hangover. I have found another ytf stall worth to visit next time. Classic.
