Taiwan Porridge Dinner Had the vegetables, fish and sweet potato porridge. Authentic and familiar taste. Recommended to try for a dinner spot!

Authentic Traditional food with affordable price. Love the sweet and sour pork and steam minced meat. Lots of parking lots and near to Kembangan mrt too.

Homely Taiwan Porridge We have Taiwan Porridge quite regularly and Guzaoren is really one of the best places for Taiwan Porridge in Singapore. Its menu is unpretentious, wholesome, diverse and yet traditional too. Every dish is cooked to order. Instead of the usual minced meat patty and omelette dishes we always order, we tried the black pepper beef for a change. It was satisfyingly good!

Pork Stir Fried Noodle A Vietnamese take on our local fried noodles cooked with sliced pork belly, vegetables, carrot, onion and a pinch of black pepper that gives a simple and homely taste/flavour 》$9.90

BBQ Pork Bee Hoon Salad with Fried Spring Roll Served with grilled pork slices over a plate of white rice noodles and herbs with a side dish of dipping sauce. The taste of meaty and slightly fatty grilled pork along with the flavours of fresh vegetables, crunchy spring rolls mixed with sweet and sour dipping sauce and rice vermicelli create a stunning harmony of taste in my mouth 》$9.90

Cheerful eatery with friendly staff and good food Had the BBQ pork Beehoon salad which was so so good - chock full of ingredients and everything came together so well with the sauce. Fried spring roll was a delight too. Owner was super friendly and talked to each table of customers. Overall, a cheery meal.

Sop Buntut Bebek Goreng Pak Ndut is the place to be at this Ramadan! This spot brings authentic Indonesian-style fried duck to Singapore, and they’ve truly mastered the art. Each duck is marinated for 24 hours in a blend of traditional spices, then fried to crispy perfection with a juicy, tender inside. Apart from Bebek Goreng, their Ayam Penyet, Ayam Bakar, Sop Buntut and Tahu Telur are not to be missed too! I absolutely enjoyed the custom experience from the sambal offerings. With five levels of heat to choose from, you can customize your spice experience—whether you’re into something sweet and mild or craving a serious kick!

Laksa Yong Tau Foo Noodles (SGD6.50) You’ve to try this when you are here! Priced at 80c per piece (min. 6 pieces), this is considered affordable in the CBD area! I guess most of the ytf is made by them but I wished there’s a bigger variety to choose from…

Very good ytf Dry ytf @ $11.20 (14 pcs of ingredients, each at $0.80, no carbs) Been here once and kept thinking of coming back. Got the dry version this time and love the sauce. Ingredients are nice also, and the fried items are well fried. Walked past once during lunch time and the queue was all the way to the next building, been here a couple of times in the evening and got much lesser crowd.

#01-28: 28 BBQ Sambal Stingray @$12/$15 28 BBQ serves up fresh Sambal Bbq Stingray. Meat is fresh and tender, slides off the bone easily and not over-cooked at all. Sambal was damn shiok and was not too overly- spicy. Have ate this a few times and dapao back also. Always consistently good.

Esah Satay (#01-73) @80 Cents per stick The Aroma coming out from the store made me really Buay Tahan. As I waited for Hanjiang Food to arrive, really bth liao, and Esah Satay smells too good, decided to get 10 sticks to quench my hunger. No regrets. What came were 10 sticks of Chunky pieces of chicken, all well marinated, tender, and slightly charred edges. All the perfect combination for great satay.

Dancing Char Kway Teow (#01-19) Remembered reading about this place on social media before. The uncle chef dances whilst cooking this plate of Char Kway Teow. The CKT smells good. Tasted only ok though. The one thing I like about this hawker centre, is that I see most stores accept cashless qr code payment like grabpay etc. Not bad for a hawker centre located in the midst of a old neighbourhood. And most storeholders I see are of the older generation, who says they can't embrace technological advancements. Good job uncles & aunties.

Fishball Mee Tai Bak Craving something warm and comforting after a tough HIIT session, I headed over to Joo Chiat Chiap Kee for their fishball noodles. The mee tai bak, tossed in chilli and crispy lard, packed a rich, spicy punch that was seriously addictive. Simple yet satisfying, every bite hit the spot. The soup was clean and light, with fresh handmade yellowtail fishballs, a meatball, and herh keow (fish dumpling). Weekends can mean long queues, but it’s absolutely worth the wait. Compared to the Bedok 538 market outlet, this one just hits differently—the flavour and texture here just feel more on point. A comforting bowl that never lets me down 》$4

Fishball Kway Teow Soup From Joo Chiat Chiap Kee Big portion $4.50 of fishball kway teow soup. Not bad for those who like it.

Fishball Noodle There's always a queue at Joo Chiat Chiap Kee which serves the freshest yellowtail fishball handmade in-house daily. The fishball comes in irregular shape, slightly smaller in size with a good bouncy, chewy and springy bite. Each standard small bowl of noodles comes with 4 fishballs, 2 meatballs and 1 Teochew fish dumpling (herh keow) while the bigger bowl comes with 3 additional fishballs. The noodles are cooked al-dente, tossed in their popular special sambal chilli sauce and topped with crispy pork lard and spring onion 》$3 (small) / $4 (medium) They are also selling ala-carte fishball/meatball for $2 (10pcs) and fish dumplings for $4 (20pcs). Be sure not to head over too late as I overheard the lady from the stall going down the queue behind us informing customers that their orders would be replaced with more meatballs as their popular fishballs are running out.

Roasted Meat Platter This is where I always head for my roast cravings! 88 Hong Kong Roast Specialist never disappoints. Their roast meat shines with crispy crackling and tender, juicy meat. The char siew is perfectly caramelized, balancing sweet and smoky flavors. Succulent roasted duck with aromatic spices completes the platter. Noodles are al-dente with a nice bite, topped with soft and gooey lava egg. Simple, satisfying, and always a winner! Meat Platter 》$10 Plain Noodle 》$2 + $1.80 Lava Egg Wanton Soup 》$6

Roast Duck & Pork Belly Rice 烧鸭 x 烧肉 88 Hong Kong Roast Meat Specialist nails it! Roast duck boasts juicy meat, while roast pork belly's crackling skin and melt-in-your-mouth fat (almost jelly-like!) will leave you craving more. Unbeatable value at just $8.80! Lava egg for $1 add on.

Fantastic charsiew...did I say the charsiew is fantastic? I dare say this store has one of the best char siew in the whole of Singapore....forget about the roast duck (it's just average) and forget about the roasted pork (skin is crackling but so so fatty and oily), just head straight for the charsiew plus your choice of rice or noodles. The noodles are good but I prefer the rice as a blank canvas to the sweet saltiness of the charsiew and its sauce. For sides, the nai bai cai had an addictive sauce and the fried wontons was pretty filling and good. Otherwise, yeah a good place to satisfy your roast meat (read: charsiew) cravings although watch out for all the oil and fats.

Orh Luak One of the better orh luaks I’ve had in a while! The oyster omelette nails the smoky wok hei. The oysters were relatively huge, fresh, and plump, which made each bite juicy and rich. Loved the contrast between the crispy edges of the egg and the gooey, chewy starch batter. The chilli was tangy with a nice kick, cutting through the richness perfectly. Definitely worth the wait 》$5

Really Beautiful Oyster Omelettes! Now this is a really good place to satisfy your oyster omelette cravings. The fried oyster ($4/6/8/10) is for people that love their omelette on a drier side. The omelette is extremely fragrant and not too dry, but you still get your crispy bits fix. Paired with their juicy oysters, you're definitely in for a treat. The oyster omelette ($6/8/10/12) is a starchier and wetter version of the omelette, and it comes drenched with generous amount of seafood chilli sauce. This is my personal favourite, due to the heavier seafood taste and its uniqueness in its hearty flavour. This style is a rare find in Singapore! Their carrot cake ($3/4/5) is also worth a mention as the carrot cake has the smoky flavour incorporated in it. Totally love how the black version has caramelised bits! This stall is a must try if you are in Circuit Road Food Centre!!! 😍

Lean Meat Mee Sua I had a delicious bowl of mee sua that was well-soaked in a flavourful broth filled with herbal goodness. The pork slices were generous and lean, and the texture of the mee sua was silky smooth without being too mushy even after sitting in the soup for some time. It was a satisfying and hearty meal with every bite being full of meaty and herbal flavours 》$4.50

Mee Sua Soup Seng Kee is popular for their Mee sua Soup. Had always been going to their Kembangan Main branch, and I would gladly confirm that it is just as good here at Kaki Bukit. Herbalicious and flavourful Soup. Meats were tender & fresh. Added some chilli padi, and the soup was damn shiok.

Pork Mee Sua This hawker centre version of the main unit at Kembangan is quite different. But it has this signature dish. I haven't eaten it in years. I don't take innards so mine's all sliced pork. It came boiling hot. Overall, it was decent but not extraordinary. The herbal soup's fine but could be better. The pork was quite basic. Seng Kee is really defined by how unique this dish is in Singapore.

Back again for 1 for 1 Came back again for the 1 for 1 and have the Truffle Tonkotsu Udon now. Really good and strong truffle taste

Grand Opening 1 for 1 Came here due to their grand Opening 1 for 1 and I like it. I had their signature Jiro Tonkotsu Udon while my friend had Sanuki Beef Onsen Egg Udon. The Jiro Tonkotsu Udon soup broth was fragrant and strong in flavour. However, after near the end, the soup got saltier. Overall however, still a good dish and would come back for their 1 for 1 sometime around this week to explore more dish

get this almond shakeeeee this was really fragrant omg😋 it’s like the almond cream chinese dessert, but less creamy so it’s drinkable

cereal fish rice not the cereal i expected but still enjoyable! not too oily too

salted egg chicken rice creamy & doesn’t have the “artificial” salted egg taste. not jelak either!! i had to add a fried egg because…i love eggs…
