Xin Wang Hong Kong Cafe (HabourFront Centre)

Yes, I have finally tried out MegaZip and MegaJump at Mega Adventure Park in Sentosa after thinking about it for months. 

 
After the adrenaline rush, Jing Ru and I came back to HabourFront Centre. It has been a while since I last ate at Xin Wang Hong Kong Cafe so we decided to have our dinner there.

Baked Char Siew Bo Lo Bun [$4.50] is one of Xin Wang Hong Kong Cafe's signatures. It is almost identical to Tim Ho Wan's Baked Bun with BBQ Pork. Sweet and moist barbecued pork mussels are wrapped in a moist bun topped with a crispy custardy top with a crosshatched pattern that resembles the outside of a pineapple.

Steamed Creamy Custard Bun is such a letdown. The bun itself is fluffy but too thick and the salted egg custard filling is not thick enough and tastes more like melted butter than the creamy salted egg filling it is meant to be.

Papaya Soup Bee Hoon is another signature dish at Cin Wang Hong Kong Cafe and my favourite is Chicken Chop 'N' Egg Papaya Soup Bee Hoon [$10.90]. Thin bee hoon is accompanied by flavorful papaya soup, soft papaya pieces, corn, flavoured egg and a thick piece of freshly-fried chicken chop. The other options are Luncheon Meat 'N' Egg Papaya Soup Bee Hoon, Pork Chop 'N' Egg Papaya and Sliced Fish 'N' Egg Papaya Soup Bee Hoon.

XW Special Ying Yong Snow Ice with Grass Jelly is a huge dessert that is best shared with friends. Known to most Singaporeans as ice kachang, the tall tower of shaved ice hides all the gems at the bottom of the bowl - red beans, sweet corn, grass jelly and agar cubes. This particular one is topped with condensed milk, palm sugar and puréed sweet corn. If you are a mango-lover, you should go for the XW Special Mango Snow Ice.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
