Should have taken a photo when it came bubbling in the pot! Very appetising.

Beef steak might have worked better without the strange black pepper sauce too. Will try the other items next time.

And #IAmSingaporean because I tell the auntie I want the Michael Jackson.

Admittedly not my favourite roast, but doesn’t mean I won’t miss this when it makes way for nation-building together with Rochor Centre.

First recommended by ieatishootipost. Even better than putu piring! Perfect with kopi or teh. Opposite Fatty Weng.

Always goes well with food, and me.

I’m sure the grandmasters would love to paint still life oil-on-canvas paintings of this.

Might be because I’m biased towards my ’hood. Also halfway ambivalent about sharing because I like the relative quiet here compared to popular places ...

Throwback made sweeter by the deep fried fish

My parents told me the Ah Gong I never got to meet asked for thosai as he breathed his last, so this dish has a place in my tummy, and heart.

Warms the cockles of my heart and tummy, because we used to go to Mitzi Restaurant quite a bit back in the day. I even recognised the auntie!

Serious! And it’s as black as the night too. But still, this is good, and good value for money too.
