Many Food found in Golden Mile!!!
go on click it!

Golden Mile Special Yong Tau Foo

#B1-44


- very exaggerating..
this stall has COUNTLESS of reviews from many different places.
i am so going to try this stall!

Hainanese Chicken Rice n Curry Chicken Noodle
#B1-153




- this is the first stall we tried and brother Joshua ordered
Chicken Curry Kway Teow.
for a bowl, the ingredients inside are pretty much
potato, tau pok, beansprouts, fish cake & of course their famous chicken.
the curry taste is thick and rich - superb,
for someone who dislike white chicken and still eat - well what do you think?
this is a definite
MUST TRY!
*the chili is superb, rmb to ask for it when ordering

Hainan Hokkien Mee
#B1-34
11am-2pm, 4pm-10pm Closed Wed


- even though the reviews are pretty high,
and its strongly recommended by Royal Plaza,
Brother Joshua & me find the taste okay okay only,
nothing special,
in fact we did not finished BUT
this person find it otherwise..
dee...licious?
You decide..
*the chili is superb, rmb to ask for it when ordering

Kheng Fatt Beef Noodles



- didnt get to try this stall even though the noodles looked tempting.
will definitely try when i'm back there!

Golden Mile Claypot Rice
#01-65




- ordered the smallest portion which is at $10
and was surprised at the large portion.
This stall review is so high
and everyone apparently likes it.
Being a fan of everything,
Claypot Rice is a must try especially it is so well liked.
You have to add in your own sauce according to your preference
and then mix it.
Perhaps the amount added wasn't right,
i find the taste average,
not THAT superb till its a MUST TRY.
but this stall is seriously very popular though,
almost all the tables around there has this claypot rice.
Try a not?
You decide..

Chung Cheng Chilli Mee
#01-59




- this bowl is at $3
and yes the review is very high,
strongly recommended by a lot of newspapers, magazines,
read the internet review and everyone's description
makes my saliva drool.
But kind of disappointed though,
the taste was.. .. ..
normal average mee?
Try a not?
You decide..
*the chili is superb, rmb to ask for it when ordering

Kee's Crispy Goreng Pisang
#01-90 Golden Mile Food Centre, 505 Beach Road, Singapore 199583




- seriously want to eat some desserts or something
and bought this Fried Banana.
YES! ITS NICE AND BIG!!
unlike the bananas we see outside which uses small ones,
they uses big ones, making the taste more special..
and since its called Fried Banana,
the flour they used to fried it, their mixture is very important.
Overall, YES yuMMy!
$1.50 per piece, it's cheap and definitely worth it!
MUST TRY!


OVERALL
was so disappointed that all these stalls are closed when we reached
Zhao An Granny Grass Jelly
Ice Queen Ice Cream
The Sweet Stone
Pasta Planet..
Golden Mile really amazes me with the many stalls
and many good food available there..
i learnt that cheap food = hawker can be very yummy-licious
and very tempting too.
its a total different experience and feel when dining at hawker,
and i SO ENJOYED!!
will definitely be back soon!!
=)

Our Father in Heaven,
thank you for the food,
thank you for blessing me with Brother Joshua.
Father, i pray that You will change me,
change me to be more patient and humble.
In Jesus Name,
Amen

OUT
Wanted to go The Sweet Stone but they closed at 12am,
too rush so
OUT
Next up was the Al-Majlis at Arab Street
the place is like a puzzle, different turns, different stalls,
1 way road somemore..
Ended up finally we found the place but it wasnt what i expected..
it was really dirty, dark and run down..
Worse than the Far East ones
but oh well, we reached so why not go take a look..

Bagalawa Corner

We are proud to present the LeCaire Bagalawa Corner. This is the only place in Singapore where you can find a wide range of Arab pastries called Bagalawas. A culinary pleasure you must try!



the information and the pictures are extracted from their website
and this is their display of Bagalawa
tempted? NOT!

Cafe Le Caire

Very Beautiful, Very Clean - taken from the net

when the lady brought us up to the 2nd level,
HORRIBLE!!!
the carpet looks like thousands of houses have trampled on it
and the smell.. .. ..
Best part was Shawn's reaction,
ha! i will never forget his face..

already go there,
leave empty handed kinda not happy
so i asked them what are the desserts that can pack away
and she said Bagalawa - famous Arabic pastry
the thought that came to my mind was
WHAT? the one that was not appealing not tempting at all?
Went down and see or rather Stare.. .. ..
really seriously not nice
plus 100 Grams at $6.40
and 100 grams is only 5piece
But Shawn asked me to get
so i simply ask the lady to pick the nicest 5 and he paid the money..


we decided to go back Dempsey Road..
God really blessed us,
all the places we went is those weird weird place
but with God's blessings, we always managed to find =)
saw
House of Barracks
their kitchen is closed and by that time it is already 1230am..
both of us are starving,
so we went to the next stop Oosh..

TO MY HORROR!
Oosh is like a bar, a chilling out place
and ppl that goes bar should know how expensive their food is.
Yes, he dont mind but i mind..
i will ache for his money and
we went off in search for other place..

Decided to go Holland V since it is the closest,
and.. .. .. ..
LONG STORY
but Praise Lord,
we finally decided to settle at
Breko@Holland Village
38 Lorong Mambong Tel: 6468 4424

was fully packed w only 2 seats available
PRAISE LORD! =)
really starving,
with help from the very helpful, nice waiter
i quickly ordered
Caesar Salad with Smoked Salmon ($15.90)

LOOK at the SMOKED SALMON!!!
p/s yonlee, i finally know why mention of restaurants u will ask is there any smoked salmon..IT IS SO SO NICE!!!

up next.. ..
Hawaiian Pizza

NOT!!!
Firstly it is thin crust
Secondly the layer of cheese & ingredients is SUPER THICK!
awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww im HUNGRY!

silly shawn poured too much chilli flakes

2 dish wasn't filling,
wanted some bites
Calmari or Buffalo Wings?
we asked the waiter to decide,
dont tell us,
i want surprise.
Shawn bet on Calamari
and God is telling me its Buffalo,
ended up .. .. ..
God is mighty! =)

yes the wings is superb too!
spicy, crispy!

DESSERTS TIME!
ordered
Strawberry something..
at the top is either vanilla or raspberry ice cream
in between are slices of strawberry
beneath the strawberry is either vanilla or raspberry ice cream
and followed by a crust of biscuit
Surrounding it are strawberry sauce, almonds, milo powder

How's the taste?
this picture will show you..

Up Next,
MUDSLIDE!!!

looks scary isn't it?
Seriously for chocolate lovers!
banana, coco crunch, small bites of chocolate, coffee powder, chunks of chocolate ice cream with GENEROUS chocolate sauce


Shawn ate 4 bites, i finished half the bowl then he says all mine.
i was like is it possible to finish all?
