SG Food Trail

A (almost) full day of travel-to-eat adventure in Singapore on National Day =)

2.30PM
Leong Kee (Klang) Bak Kut Teh, Beach Road, near Kampong Glam conservation area

We waited almost an hour for the food to come... Ordered bak kut teh for 3 (even though there were 5 of us, hahaha), salted veg, fried you tian and rice.

Bak kut teh soup is thick and rich with herbal flavour; we absolutely love the soup and requested for 2 rounds of soup refill!

Ribs are tender and meaty; and there are plenty to go around.

Soup include pieces of beancurd skin and veg as well; and i believe this is not usual (??); er, not sure... haha

For the amount of ribs plus bak kut teh soup plus sides, it's only SGD 8.00 per pax. Nice! Recommend.


We strolled over to Haji Lane and checked out the shophouses which are mainly independent fashion boutiques.

Very enjoyable!


... and since we were there, I must definitely take photos of Masjid Sultan (Sultan Mosque) and the cafes along Bussorah Pedestrian Mall.

This will definitely be a good place to laze away the afternoon... imagine yourself slipping a cup of tea, reading a book, enjoying the breeze and admiring the picturesque Sultan Mosque...


05:15PM
Durian at Tanjong Katong.

Yummy Sultan durians (at SGD 7.00 per kg) plus a few pieces of D24 and Mao Shan Wang durians (complimentary from durian stall auntie) for sampling =)

We love durians!


06:00PM
Punggol Nasi Lemak Centre

We spied this stall as we drove down the road, saw the long queue and decided to try the nasi lemak as it is supposed to be really famous.

Bought a plate of nasi lemak to share as we were still very full from the durians. Chicken wing is pretty good, tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. Chilli is good too.

For our plate of nasi lemak, it costs $4.80 (slightly overpriced I feel) and 20mins in the queue.


07:00PM
Old Airport Road Food Centre

Top Right: We queued almost 45mins to lay our hands on the famous 老伴手工豆花. This beancurd tastes really good and its texture is very soft and smooth. Seriously, this is the best beancurd we have ever tasted (or rather, BK has ever tasted, cos she immediately declared that this is the best beancurd in the whole world... hahaha).

SGD 1.50 for a box of original flavour beancurd. And each of us returned home with at least 4 boxes of beancurd in hand... hahaha... and no, I considered ourselves as normal beings... cos there were many more people who ordered at least 10 boxes lor. LOL

Bottom Left: Soft, smooth and silky handmade prawn chee cheong fun from 现做现卖猪肠粉 tastes really good, especially with their light soy sauce! SGD 2.00 per piece.

Bottom Middle: Delicious BBQ string ray with super hot chilli sauce from one of the BBQ seafood stalls. SGD 8.00 (small).

Bottom Left: Yummy charcoal grilled BBQ chicken wings from 唐记炭烧鸡翅. SGD 1.10 per piece.



Should we go another food trail soon??
