Nasi-Padang-Masarah-Hai-Chiew-Masai-Johor

Reader masaiboy suggested that I pay a visit to Nasi Padang Masarah, the Masai town folk's long time favourite.

masaiboy 好介绍. 今天跑去 Masai 马西吃巴东咖喱饭. 口味刚刚好. 虽然菜色不算超级多, 今天所吃过的我们都觉得很好吃. 食物不会太重口味. 我觉得刚刚好. 香料味很香. 今天吃的特别喜欢他的炸鸡腿跟咖喱羊肉. 价格公道. 今天这餐21块. 喜欢吃咖喱饭的朋友不妨试试.

Master Tang Serves Original Crystal Jade Wanton Noodles at Hawker Price 鄧師傅鳳城面家

Master-Tang-Crystal-Jade-Wanton-Noodles-鄧師傅鳳城面家

Back in the 1980s, my favourite Hong Kong style wanton noodle place in Singapore was in Centrepoint, at the lower ground level near to where Mak's Noodle is today. I love their stewed beef noodle and their special chili sauce. Then, I went away to live in Ang Moh Land for a few years. When I came back in 1990, this wanton noodle place (I don't know the name) was gone. So were a few other of my favourite makan places, but that will be another story.

After tasting boat noodles in Johor Bahru, I was eager to experience boat noodles in Thailand during my recent trip to Bangkok. The best place in Bangkok for boat noodles is at the Victory Monument where there are several restaurants serving this iconic dish. Next time, I hope to go to Amphawa (the famous floating market) for boat noodles.

Chew Kee & Chiew Kee Soya Sauce Chicken Noodles 釗記廣東油雞麵



I used to get my soya sauce chicken noodle fix at Liao Fan Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken & Rice (aka Hawker Chan) until this happened - in July 2016, the good stall won the honour of being the world's first Michelin Starred hawker stall and the world's least expensive Michelin meal. We were extremely happy for Mr Chan the owner, but it also means that we have to wait one to two hours for our usual soya sauce chicken noodle fix 😂
