Adam Road Food Center - Wide range of food choices

We embark to Adam Road Food Center today, set in the heart of Farrer Road and Bukit Timah Road. There was a quite a big crowd of people on this weekdy night. The nearest MRT station would be the new Botanic Gardens station while there are many buses that goes to this place. 

The original intention of trying the famous Nasi Lemak for dinner came to naught as the both stalls that sold Nasi Lemak were closed. Do they close on Wednesdays? Anyway despite that, there seemed to be plenty of other choices there, especially a wide range of Indian food available. This time round, we tried out the bee hoon goreng. There were many stores to choose from, and thus going to the store that has the most customers? One thing about buying mee/bee hoon going is that the store person would always presume that the customer would want an egg on top of their noodles and later charging the extra 50 cents for the egg. The bee hoon goreng wasn't too bad, tasty and appetizing but as usual adding lots of bean sprouts!

The second dish was the mutton soup, bought from the store which only specializes in mutton soup, the different parts of the soup available. The soup was rich in taste and spicy, one of a kind if you enjoy drinking soup. After posting about prawn mee for the last few entries, we succumbed to the big prawn mee again! There was a short queue for this store and the soup ws thick and rich in the stock. Lovely! Quite a few prawns were also given, making it worthy for the price that you pay.

Lastly was the ice kachang! What was the original intention of ordering a drink ended up with a dessert. This ice kachang store had a long queue, with the store uncle ensuring that each ice kachang was made to perfection, with adequate amount of ingredients. You would not miss this store since there is only one with a long long queue!


Try out the food at this food center and you will be spoilt for the wide range of choices of food available!

Hong Kong Street Chun Kee (Bukit Merah) 香港街珍記

The initial thought was that we were heading to the food centre at Alexandra. However, this meal which consisted of lots and lots of bean sprouts is at the coffee shop opposite of Alexandra Hospital, which can be viewed from the main road if you are passing by.

This Tze Char store has a wide variety of food but one of the speciality dish is the San Lao Hor Fun which is hor fun based with fish and bean sprouts. If you are a lover of bean sprouts this dish is definitely for you! The hor fun noodles would make it you feel full, together with a light fish and veg to complete the meal.


The second dish is a recommended dish by the auntie, which after ordering, we realised that our entire dinner, which has only two dishes both consisted of fish! The mango bits and floss added to the crispy fish was quite refreshing!

This coffee shop is hardly crowded and you will definitely not miss it if you are traveling along Alexandra Road so give it atry when you are heading along that way! This store is located at Blk 125 Bukit Merah Lane 1 #01-190.

Mei Ling Food Centre

Today we embark on our start of our affair to Mei Ling Food Centre, located at the hearts of Queenstown and a short distance away from Queenstown MRT station.

Main aim of this visit: To revisit the famous Shanghai dumpling that was previously from Commonwealth Ave Food Centre. 














Short Review: Before the main course, there was of course appetizer, which was the rojak from the store beside it. Dumpling was still exceptionally good though the portion has shrunk, now being 8 pieces for $4 instead of 10. Wish I could have more!! Together with the Beijing noodles and the hot & spicy soup (which can churn your stomach), this meal was more than enough for the day!

After dinner, take a stroll along the hilly side of the area. Of course, don't get lost and end up in the midst of Queenstown. Find the MRT track and you will never be lost!
