Sinar Bahru Nasi Lemak: A Clementi Delight Worth Savoring

 


When it comes to the culinary gems of Clementi, one cannot help but be drawn to the aromatic, flavorful, and utterly comforting world of Nasi Lemak. And in the heart of this vibrant neighborhood, tucked away at the Sinar Bahru Muslim Food hawker stall, lies a hidden treasure that promises to tantalize your taste buds in true Singlish style!

Rice: Soft and Fluffy, but Craving That Coconut Kick

Let's dive right into it, shall we? The star of the show, the rice, was soft and fluffy, with just a hint of mushiness that made it oh-so-comforting. However, our palates yearned for a more robust coconut flavor to complement the subtlety. Nonetheless, it set the stage for the ensemble of flavors to follow.

Chicken Wing: Turmeric Tango with a Crunchy Twist

The chicken wing was a dance of flavors and textures. It boasted a strong turmeric infusion, and while it was slightly dry inside, the exterior came to the party with a delightful crispiness. What stole the show, though, was the generous sprinkling of deep-fried batter on top. These crispy bits added the crunch factor that the chicken itself lacked and formed a perfect harmony with the rice. The accompanying chili, spicy and sweet, waltzed beautifully with the rice too.

Egg: Omelette-Style Surprise

Expect the unexpected – the egg wasn't your typical sunny side up. Instead, it was served omelette-style, bursting with flavor and tantalizing your taste buds with each bite.

Begedil: Creamy Potato Patty Perfection

The begedil, or potato patty, was a creamy delight that left us craving for more. Its rich and indulgent taste made it a standout component of this Nasi Lemak ensemble.

Ikan Bilis and Nuts: The Crunchy Sidekicks

Don't underestimate the power of these tiny titans. The ikan bilis and nuts added a delightful crunch and a savory note to every forkful, elevating the entire experience.

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...

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...
