138 Kway Chap & Porridge @ Bukit Timah Market & Food Centre

 


Where to get nice kway chap? Is there nice kway chap in Bukit Timah Market? We head down to try out 138 Kway Chap & Porridge for this food review.

Kway was silky smooth, infused with the dark savoury gravy, which wasn't overpowering yet delivering the needed soy sauce flavour. The mixed plate assortment of ingredients was definitely a treat. It comprises of salted vegetables, mildly savoury and crunchy. Halved spiced fishball was springy and pleasantly satisfying. Small and large intestines were without any hint of foul smell, thoroughly washed and perfectly braised, chewy and infused with their delectable gravy.

Pig skin was almost jelly-liked, elegant and accentuating. Taupoks were soaking with their laboriously made gravy, yet still retaining its fluffy texture, giving the bitful satisfaction. Braised meat was an absolute treat, tenderlicious, while still having its irresistible meaty flavour. Finally, their chili sauce was an assault to the senses, acidic base while delivering the spicy sensation. An absolute necessity to marry with their other irresistible ingredients.

The only pet-peeve we had with it was definitely their portion of ingredients. Kway was still alright, but items such as intestines could do better with a piece or two more. ^^

Be prepared to queue up for for at least 10 to 15mins if you are visiting them during lunch time. But they are really fast and friendly, from the friendly uncle chopping up the stuff, the auntie serving up the kways, to the lady taking orders.

At $5 a plate, Kway Chap at 138 Kway Chap & Porridge was certainly delicious and satisfying. But at that price, portion was slightly underwhelming.

Xiang Di Mi Fen Pasir Panjang Food Centre – Fatty Ipoh Noodles Review

  When you think of crispy noodle dishes, most of us immediately picture the classic deep-fried yee mee swimming in luscious egg sauce gravy. But over at  Fatty Ipoh Noodles (肥仔怡保炒粉)  in  Pasir Panjang Food Centre , there’s something different sizzling away on the wok. Enter the  Xiang Di Mi Fen (香底米粉)  – a rare twist that swaps out yee mee for bee hoon, and the results are worth every crunchy bite. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What makes Xiang Di Mi Fen special? Here’s the magic: instead of sturdy yee mee, the hawker goes with delicate bee hoon. Deep-frying bee hoon isn’t as straightforward – it’s finer, more brittle, and breaks more easily, which means it takes extra skill to get it golden, crispy, and ready to hold up under a blanket of silky gravy. That’s already a show of craft. The glorious egg sauce gravy Once the fried bee hoon hits the plate, it’s doused with a  luxurious egg sauce gravy  that cl...

View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) Their noodles were amazingly springy, coupled with their awesome thick chili that was spicy and marbled with texture. Mixed together with their noodles and you get a delectable and tremendously satisfying combi.

Hunan Pork Belly at Xiang Xiang Hunan: Crunchy, Spicy, and Lip-Smacking Good

  You know a dish is that good when you keep coming back for it. And that’s exactly what happened on our third visit to Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine 湘香湖南菜 —this time at AMK Hub. We already had high expectations from our past experiences, but once again, their Hunan pork belly blew us away. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What Makes This Hunan Pork Belly Stand Out? First off, let’s talk about the star of the show: their Hunan stir fry pork , made with a heavenly combo of Iberico pork belly and lean pork. It’s a dish that really brings out the spirit of Hunan cooking—bold, fragrant, slightly spicy, and loaded with green pepper aromatics. The pork belly is wonderfully fatty and tender, with that unmistakable richness that Iberico pork is known for. The lean pork adds a nice balance so it doesn’t get overly unctuous. And then there's the rabbit ear fungus. Yes, rabbit ear fungus—also known as Mu Er or Yunnan black fungus . It...
