“You live in Bukit Panjang? So ulu, but got nice ke kou mian.”
As someone who’s lived my whole life in Bukit Panjang, I know this statement all too well. Hey, my neighbourhood may be an often ‘neglected’ one, but at least people know of Hai Xian Zhu Zhou; some even travel here specifically for its tasty ke kou mian.
The idea of this review came to me while I was previously working on a Bukit Panjang food guide. I was rather surprised to discover that the stall hadn’t been covered on our site, despite its popularity and how synonymous it has become with my area.
So, why not? I couldn’t pass up ..read more

I’m a cash-strapped undergrad student with a penchant for Korean cuisine; you can imagine how my heart aches. I’ve patronised one too many Korean eateries that have touted themselves as ‘affordable’, only for the meal to cost me a pretty penny.
That was until I leapt at the opportunity to patronise Hangawi Korean Food after stumbling upon multiple posts about it on my social media feed. Many vouched for its affordability and authenticity. Okay, score!
I’m not quite sure if ‘hole-in-wall’ applies to Hangawi Korean Food. While its no-frills interior and minimal furnishings may suggest it, the c ..read more

The cheekily-named Good Good Bird is a stall within a Bedok coffeeshop specialising in fried chicken and chicken rice— don’t expect the usual roasted or steamed chicken rice plates, though, for this stall takes things to the next level.
The stall offers a zhng-ed up version of chicken rice from S$5, featuring flavoured rice accompanied with pickled vegetables, fried chicken, soup and an egg. You can ..read more
