Char.B Charcoal BBQ offers a delightful dining experience with their well-grilled dishes at affordable prices.

The grilled chicken was a standout—tender, juicy, and perfectly charred, served with a side of crispy fries.

Another highlight was the sambal stingray, which was packed with spicy, flavorful goodness. However, the portion of sambal sauce felt a bit too limited, leaving me wishing for just a bit more to complement the dish.

Overall, it’s a great spot for satisfying and wallet-friendly grilled meals.

The place gets incredibly busy during lunch hours, with wait times ranging from 20 to 30 minutes—sometimes even longer.

That said, it’s worth the wait. The dry noodles are the standout dish and a must-try. They’re topped with a generous amount of pork lard and shallots, adding a rich, savory depth to every bite.

And let’s not forget the chilli—it was absolutely fantastic, packing a flavorful punch that elevated the entire dish. Highly recommended!

The hot plate tofu at Taste of Thailand is undoubtedly one of the best I’ve ever had.

The gravy sauce was slightly spicy and incredibly flavorful, adding the perfect kick to the dish.

The aroma was enticing, and the taste lived up to the promise—absolutely delicious.

The tofu was silky smooth, and the runny eggs paired flawlessly with the rich, savory gravy.

Jalilah Corner always has a steady, long queue during weekend breakfasts.

Some of the popular dishes I noticed on the surrounding tables include Mee Siam, Mee Rebus, and Nasi Lemak—though the Nasi Lemak is only available on weekends.

The fried chicken was absolutely delicious—super crispy and freshly fried. The turnover rate for the fried chicken here is incredibly fast, so you know it’s always fresh.

The chilli was also exceptionally spicy and shiok, adding the perfect kick to the meal.

I’ve always been a regular at Xin Yuan Ji’s Bugis branch—it’s been my favorite fish soup spot in Singapore for years. Today, I decided to try their Bukit Batok outlet.

The soup used to have a strong, distinctive charcoal aroma, which added a unique depth to its flavor. While that smokiness is barely noticeable now, the soup still holds up well.

The freshness of the fish slices remains consistently high, and even without the charcoal undertones, the broth is flavorful and satisfying. It’s still a reliable choice for a comforting bowl of fish soup.

Eduardo’s is a Spanish stall nestled within the Kawan Kawan Food Court, located in the basement of Tampines Mall. It’s conveniently situated at the first store near the entrance.

While their regular dishes may not leave a lasting impression, their Basque cheesecake is truly exceptional. It strikes the perfect balance—not too overly dry, with a delightfully moist and creamy center that’s simply irresistible.

Every time I’m in the Tampines Central area, I make it a point to grab a small cheesecake to take home for dessert.

It’s a treat I always look forward to!

Chuan Kee Char Kway Teow is a must-try!

Even on a weekday lunch, the queue was snaking long—a clear sign of its popularity. For just $3, the portion was generous and packed with flavor. The dish had a strong, smoky wok hei that was incredibly satisfying, and it was loaded with fresh bean sprouts.

What really stood out were the generous bits of Chinese sausage (Lup Cheong), which added a delicious savory-sweet touch to every bite.

A fantastic and affordable plate of char kway teow!

50cents off for soup version.

The prawn noodles at 6th Avenue Porky Prawn Noodles were surprisingly excellent!

I tried both their signature dry and soup versions. The dry version was outstanding—the noodles were perfectly complemented by a spicy and flavorful chilli dip. The soup version was equally impressive, with a rich, porky broth that had a delightful depth of flavor.

The prawns were undeniably fresh. The signature bowl also comes with their homemade prawn paste.

And let’s not forget the chilli dip—it was spicy, flavorful, and paired perfectly with the prawns. Absolutely delicious!

Stepping into this place felt like traveling back to the early 90s—a nostalgic, old-school vibe that’s hard to find these days.

The food was delicious and lived up to the atmosphere. The hor fun was excellent, with fresh seafood, strong wok hei, and a flavorful gravy.

The Hainanese pork chop was another highlight—crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and served in sweet & sour sauce which tasted very ketchup-y

The milkshakes, however, were nothing special—very old-school, basically made with walls brand ice cream blended with milk.

For those driving, there’s adequate parking available, though the place itself is quite secluded.

A charming spot for a trip down memory lane and a satisfying meal!
