ice kachang we bought at Chinatown Complex Temporary Market & Food Centre, cos it was so damn HOT there. Its a temporary place with no proper ventilation. We are already sitting outside and yet it was sweltering. It wasnt very nice though. But the main reason for our visit there is the Lor Mai Fan, aka glutinous rice. The texture of the rice was great! Soft and just the right amount of stickiness. Plus, they added fried onions on the rice, making the dish both crispy and soft at the same time. A definite worthy buy, at only $1 per plate. Anyway, there was a really long queue for yong tau foo. But it must have been really good if ppl are willing to stand there and sweat just eat it. Or maybe they wanted a free sauna. ok lame. We did not try it due to time contraints and also because we did not want to get heat stroke..
Ignore the lau pa sat label on the bowl. This is cheesy potato bought at a western food stall (Benny) at Maxwell. This stall sells more unique types of western food, i think they have beef goulash, tiramisu and lasagna. You dont usually see these at ordinary hawker centres right? So we bought this potato thing and tiramisu. The potato was delicious, and seems relatively simple to cook, maybe we can learn to make it! Unfortunately, the tiramisu was not exactly appealing, maybe because it wasn't cold when we ate it. Kind of dry too.
We also sampled delicious onde onde. Demand for this product exceeds qty supplied, therefore there was a shortage and we had to wait for awhile before we could eat it. It was definitely worth the wait! We got FRESHLY MADE onde onde, still hot from the pot. When you bite into it, the skin breaks and the sweet liquid flows into your mouth, SHIOK!
Some porridge we tried. We bought two bowls, century egg and chicken porridge. It is supposedly famous, hence its exorbitant price. ($3+ for porride? seriously?) The taste wasn't that awesome, but maybe it was because we were damn full when we had it. However, the chicken meat was delicious, soft and tender, yummy. Century egg wasn't spectacular. This shop offers a wide variety of porride, including some unusual flavours.
Dunno why this picture is last. We actually ate this at our first stop, at Hong Lim Market and Food Centre. We had one spicy and non spicy plate. Personally I find the spicy one more tasty, but perhaps it was because my taste buds had already died after eating all the chilli. I have an extremely low treshold for spicy food, but oddly i still love them. Suyi loves the beansprouts, haha. Not only that, this dish tastes delicious on the whole. A must try!
doesn't our first food trip sound interesting? and we actually tried more stuff than what you see from the pictures. Plus, we actually walked from chinatown station all the way to outram park, back to chinatown and then to clarke quay! So, who says cc makes you fat?
