Really enjoyed the food here! The prawn noodle soup was an umami bomb, the flavour was so rich! The hokkien mee was amazing as well, the noodles were super qq & the wokhei was rly shiok! Definitely worth a trip down to macpherson for this :)

Honestly one of the best prawn noodle soups Iโ€™ve ever had. The soup was packed with so much umami and sweetness โ€” you can really taste how rich and well-cooked the broth was. Itโ€™s honestly so hard to find a good bowl of prawn noodle soup nowadays, but this one completely exceeded expectations.

The prawns were super fresh, juicy, and naturally sweet. Every bite was so satisfying and paired perfectly with the soup. The noodles were cooked perfectly too โ€” not too soft, not too hard โ€” and mixed so well with the sauce that every mouthful was flavourful.

We also ordered the ngoh hiang platter and every single item was so good. The cheese one especially was AMAZING. Crispy on the outside, cheesy and savoury on the inside โ€” definitely a must order. Honestly, all the different pieces we ordered were delicious and complemented the meal so well.

Would 100% recommend this place if youโ€™re craving a solid bowl of prawn noodles and good ngoh hiang. Definitely coming back again.

Iโ€™ve tried quite a number of prawn noodle spots across Singapore, and this place honestly stands out as one of the best Iโ€™ve had so far.

The soup was exceptional โ€” rich, aromatic, and packed with deep umami flavour while still carrying a natural sweetness from the prawns. You can really tell the broth was simmered with care because every sip felt flavourful, comforting, and incredibly addictive. Itโ€™s honestly so hard to find a prawn noodle soup nowadays that delivers this kind of balance and depth.

The prawns themselves were super fresh, juicy, and naturally sweet. Every bite had that satisfying snap, and the sweetness from the prawns blended perfectly into the broth, making the whole bowl even more enjoyable.

The pork ribs were another highlight for me. They were incredibly tender and soft, almost falling apart effortlessly, and best of all, there was completely no porky taste. The meat absorbed the flavour of the broth beautifully and added such a comforting richness to the dish.

The noodles were cooked perfectly too โ€” springy, smooth, and coated beautifully with the sauce and soup. Every mouthful was packed with flavour without feeling too heavy.

We also ordered the ngoh hiang platter, and honestly every single item was good. The cheese one especially was amazing โ€” crispy on the outside with a rich, savoury cheesy filling that was so addictive. Each different piece we ordered had its own unique texture and flavour, and none of them disappointed.

Beyond the food, the overall experience made the place even better. The atmosphere felt lively and welcoming, making it a really enjoyable spot to sit down and have a comforting meal. Even though there was a queue, it was managed very efficiently and moved surprisingly fast. The service was excellent as well โ€” the staff were friendly, attentive, and made the whole dining experience feel warm and pleasant. Despite the crowd, the food was served very quickly, which honestly impressed me.

Overall, this is definitely a place I would highly recommend to anyone craving a really solid bowl of prawn noodles in Singapore. From the quality of the food to the service and atmosphere, everything was extremely well done, and itโ€™s somewhere Iโ€™d gladly come back to again.

The Peking Duck is quite good. The way it is served seems different from the original Beijing style. Perhaps it's a Tunglok creation. For four persons, one duck is adequate. Not advisable to take the set offered. Too much food.

(~ $11) dumpling noodle was quite ok but the broth slightly salty tbh. siew mai v nice as usual.

Prata at Zi Zai Vegetarian in Tampines ๐Ÿซ“ I got myself a Ham Prata and plain prata here.

Why Ham prata? Quite a unique prata I guess ๐Ÿค” Its pretty cool, with diced ham in the prata, and when I started slicing and eating it, everything starts falling apart ๐Ÿคฃ Love it and especially when the prata is dipped into the curry or vice versa ๐Ÿ˜‰ Fabulous taste ๐Ÿ˜‹

Not much pure vegetarian prata out there in SG, absolutely love eating prata here, no doubt ๐Ÿซถ this is a pure vegetarian restaurant. Vegan and eggless options are available.

Conveniently located near Tampines West MRT Station. Zi Zai vegetarian has outlets spread across SG, catering to you, wherever you are in SG ๐ŸŽŠ

Highly recommended for its local cuisine as well as their prata ๐Ÿค“ Love it ๐Ÿ˜ป

tried their signature hainanese chicken rice and it was really delicious! the chicken was steamed really well and is tender~ also had their chap chye which was very flavourful with the fried pork bits! the fish maw soup was delicious as well and paired perfectly with the meal

Really enjoyed the chicken rice here, especially the chap chye. The rice was insanely fragrant, and the chicken had a nice bite to it. But the chap chye is the real must-order for me, you can really taste the aroma from the dried shrimp and pork lard, which gives it so much depth and flavour. This is exactly why I always order it whenever I come hehe

Would definitely recommend coming here with your family or friends for a comforting meal!

This MXG is fragrant without being oily, spice brings warmth but doesnโ€™t overwhelm and I like that there are no peppercorns in sight so it stays smooth and easy to enjoy without the numbing overload.

The fried specials are the highlight. Fish fillets stay crisp outside with tender flesh, luncheon meat turns golden and crunchy and potato slices snap with every bite. Fried separately, they add crunch and richness without greasiness, making the bowl satisfying all around ใ€‹$18.25
