Chinese Cuisine 中国美食 - Northeastern, Hunan and Sichuan Cuisines

 My colleague recently brought me to a Chinese restaurant run by a friend of hers. 

Chinese Cuisine - Restaurant Front

Chinese Cuisine - Interior

This Chinese restaurant on Balestier road is helmed by two super chefs from China who both have more than 20 years of experience. Together, they whip up Northeastern, Hunan and Sichuan dishes.

Chinese Cuisine - Mixed Chicken Gizzard Salad

This Mixed Chicken Gizzard Salad 凉拌鸡胗 [S$8] is a refreshing appetizer. The chicken gizzard is well-seasoned with just the right amount of chilli and seasoning.  

Chinese Cuisine - White Mushroom with Salted Egg Sauce

White Mushroom with Salted Egg Sauce 咸蛋白玉菇 [S$12] is a new dish. I wish the salted egg taste could be stronger, but it is nevertheless very addictive. Anything with salted egg become very addictive by default, at least to me.

Chinese Cuisine - Garlic Bean Sprouts

There are many choices of vegetables available but the staff recommended bean sprouts which just came in that day. I ordered Garlic Bean Sprouts 蒜蓉豌豆苗 [S$8]. The bean sprouts are very fresh and crispy, the garlic brings out the natural sweetness of the bean sprouts.

Stew Lamb Rib Pot 红焖羊肉锅 [S$22] is a speciality dish of this restaurant. The lamb ribs are tender and there are lots of vegetables. Although it looks very red, it is only mildly spicy. 

Chinese Cuisine - Pork with Long Cabbage Dumpling

Chinese Cuisine - Pancake with Leek

Northeastern cuisine is known for their dumplings, Pork with Long Cabbage Dumpling 猪肉白菜水饺 [S$5 for 10 pieces] is a classic example of dumpling. Pancake with Leek 葱油饼  [S$3] is another common dish in Northeastern China. 

Chinese Cuisine on Balestier Road serves value-for-money dishes of Northeastern, Hunan and Sichuan cuisine.

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...
