The Food

Hong Kong Street Restaurant Novena - Prawn & Minced Meat Rolls

Prawn & Minced Meat Rolls 虾枣 [Small S$14, Medium S$20, Large S$25] reminds me of the Prawn Rolls I had at Keng Eng Kee. The sweetness of the prawns and minced pork works really well together while the frying gives it a crispy finish.

Hong Kong Street Restaurant Novena - Prawn Pasta Chicken

You can never go wrong with Prawn Paste Chicken 虾酱鸡 [Small S$15, Medium S$21, Large S$25]. The chicken winglets are well-marinated in prawn paste while the skin is fried till crispy golden-brown.

Hong Kong Street Restaurant Novena - Steamed Song Fish Head in Back Bean Sauce

Just the fish head used in Steamed Song Fish Head in Black Bean Sauce 鼓汁蒸松鱼头 [$25] is already so big, I can just imagine how huge the fish must be. The fish head is very fresh, the fish meat is firm and tender.

Hong Kong Street Restaurant Novena - Homemade Tofu with Cai PohHomemade Tofu with Cai Poh 菜脯冬豆腐 [Small S$15, Large S$24] is a homely dish that reminds one of home-cooked food. The freshly-made tofu is so tender while the cai poh gives it a touch of saltiness.

Hong Kong Street Restaurant Novena - Sambal Kang Kong

Sambal Kangkong 马来风光 [Small S$12, Medium S$17, Large S$20] is another one of their signature dishes, but it’s spicy.

Hong Kong Street Restaurant Novena - Baby Kai Lan (Stir-Fried

For those of us who can’t eat spicy food, we will stick to good-old Hong Kong Kai Lan (Stir-Fried) 香港芥蓝 (清炒) [Small S$12, Medium S$17, Large S$20].

Hong Kong Street Restaurant Novena - Fried Beef Hor Fun

Fried Beef Hor Fun (Dry) 干炒牛肉河粉 [Small S$9, Large S$16] is another must-try. Replacing the sticky gravy of their wet counterpart is hor fun that ample “wok hei”. The beef pieces, enveloped in corn starch, are tender and juicy.

Hong Kong Street Restaurant Novena - Red Bean Pancake

The meal ends on a perfect note with traditional Red Bean Pancake 红豆窝饼 [S$11++] for dessert. It is crispy and not too sweet, what more can one ask for?

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...
