Herbal Mutton Soup at Pasir Panjang Food Centre: A Pricey Yet Piquant Adventure at Ivy’s!

 


When you enter Pasir Panjang Food Centre, your senses are immediately drawn to Ivy's Hainanese Herbal Mutton Soup stall, guided by the inviting aroma of herbs.

The Wolfberry Wonder in Every Sip

Let's delve into their $14 herbal mutton soup. The soup is impressively thick, brimming with the essence of wolfberries, which dominate the flavour profile. Interestingly, the intense herbal taste almost overshadows the mutton.



Meat and More: A Textural Tango

The mutton, though sparingly served, is tender and delicious. The addition of crunchy black fungus adds a delightful contrast. Tau pok and tau kee are also included, absorbing the soup's richness and enhancing every bite.

The Price Point: Is It Worth the Wallet Workout?

At $14, this soup stands at a higher price point than typical hawker fare. While the cost might raise eyebrows, the quality and unique flavours can justify the expense for an occasional indulgence.

Overall Verdict: A Flavourful Journey Worth Taking?

In conclusion, Ivy's Herbal Mutton Soup offers a rich and flavourful experience. It's an extravagant choice in a hawker setting but one that delivers in terms of taste and quality. A special treat that's worth trying!

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...

A cozy little restaurant stall tucked in the basement, it promises authentic Korean noodles and hearty comfort food that feels straight out of a Seoul street market.

Two combo sets—Combo A and Combo B—meant we could try six different dishes, including their famous bibim noodles , which definitely deserved the spotlight.

What stood out immediately was the chewy, spr...
