For just S$3 a pop it’s extremely economical especially when it’s spiced with their “secret seasoning” they add to almost all their BBQ skewers and meats. Definitely brings out the umami and maybe packed with MSG so get their Lao Te beer which is light and easy to drink.
.
Ain’t gonna complain about cheap and awesome Chinese food that transports you to Chang Chun, Northeast China which is where their BBQ originated. A fine establishment run by mainland Chinese and you may be the only local dining there which can be a little intimidating but open up their menu and take a read, that’s the curse & beauty of direct translation - A Lost in Translation.

Many prefer their Prawn Mee with soup however I like mine dry. I love the additional fried shallots, sambal chili and the addictive yet arteries clogging pork lard. The soup version is damn shiok and awesome to have in a cold rainy day but the dry version have a mysterious charm to it. .
.
There are only a handful of notable Prawn Mee around town and it’s my personal goal to try them all and pick my own personal favourite. If you do know any Prawn Mee that’s worth a try, please feel free to leave a comment.

Yaki Goma Tofu (💵S$6) .
Homemade by the resident Japanese Chef using his own recipe, the texture of the tofu was truly unique, holding the silky smooth and incredibly soft tofu was the paper thin tofu skin that breaks with effortless resistance. Best eaten pipping hot, but beware of the maximum facial damage. .
.
As for the yakitori, it’s mandatory to get the Tebasaki (💵S$8) Chicken Wings. Crispy skin and seasoned well, good and reliable, not life changing. Those who knows me know that I have a weakness for anything Mochi, especially warabimochi. .
.
Jinjo’s WarabiMochi (💵S$10) is once again made by the Chef using his own recipe. The texture was just right, not melt in your mouth but satisfying enough.

It’s still the best matcha soft serve in town, intensely bittersweet and leagues better than the joke the M clown tried to pull off. .
.
The Kinako roasted soybean Soft Serve that Matchaya offers is something I'd start a debate with, philosophy & possibly even a war of words. They’ve come a long way ever since their first pop up, to their first physical store at Icon Village and another store at The Cathay. Happy Belated Anniversary and to many more mystery flavours and fantastic desserts to come!

Truly a well marbled mouthgasm. .
.
For starters, order the humbly named ‘Tomato’ (💵S$12) the price is a little nose bleeding for a fist sized tomato however, kochi tomato with pickled compote was ridiculously juicy. Simply an umami bomb that’s served cold.
.
It’s considered a sin, at least to me, not to order Kawa (💵S$6) Chicken Skin at any reputable Yakitori or Sumiyki joints. You’ll know why if you ever had a fantastic one.

“So it was another day in foodie paradise. And that is Singapore’s singular danger. It is easy to get sucked in, to get used to the little things on your daily table — the tiny dishes of sambal or chopped red chili peppers, the soy sauce, even the moist towelettes. .
.
You begin quickly to expect them, to take them for granted. And once you get used to the sights, sounds, smells and tastes, there is no going back. Western food becomes eerily bland and flat. You find your soul kidnapped by the memory of condiments. And, of course, of the people who introduced you to them. If you like the idea of getting lost in Asia, Singapore is the perfect place to start.”

Bad food is made by chefs who are indifferent, or who are trying to be everything to everybody, who are trying to please everyone... Bad food is fake food... food that shows fear and lack of confidence in people's ability to discern or to make decisions about their lives. .
.
And thank god that is not the case for Singapore’s food culture. Each order, each dish and each plate/bowl is made with pride and love. It’s unpretentious, something for those who crave it. Our Hawkers/Kopitiam food continue to shine confidence, a decision has been made by each individual who dedicate their whole life to reach perfection in their craft. .
.
However, that’s how we describe the past and current generation of Hawkers. I wish and hope that the next generation can assume the mantle.

Nicely charred with smokiness of the charcoal and the semi sweet sauce complete the essential unagi don eating experience.
.
Truffle Donabe - Japanese Rice Pot (💵S$48 for 5g, S$72 for 8g, add truffle at $7/g)
What makes truffle so alluring is the aroma, not the taste. You can’t really taste truffle, it’s the aroma that entices you and it brings out the umami flavour. A satisfying dish but there’s an missing component, flamboyant yes, however it lacks character.
