Masarap ba ang mga putaheng ito? I went to this place because it was cleaner than most hawker stations around Chong Pang not knowing that the price is higher than others as well. Luckily for me I have my wallet with me because usually I just bring 6-8SGD (loose change) when going to hawkers. Anyway, after eating my usual choice meal, I found out that this is no ordinary hawker. There are girls in mini-skirts roaming around asking what you'll drink, pouring your drink on your glass and making conversations as you eat and drink. It is not what you think as you think it is because it is located at an open area haha anyway, I guess you get the idea. Food, not so good, normal taste on a higher price. Drinks better than others though, I specially liked the Lime juice. Beers? Different blog. haha!

Masarap ba ang mga putaheng ito?  This was the first time I ever ate in this kind of hawker in singapore. I think they call it tapaw, similar to the Philippines' "turo turo." You order rice, then you choose your viands. This actually needs a skill, you have to know what combination is suitable for your main dish. I, for one, always pair meat, egg and veggies. I probably got this from eating "tapsilog." For my first try, I ordered pork (like adobo), steamed vegetable, scrambled egg and chicken. again, it all depends on how you combine your viands. Remember that you could put sauce on your rice at the end so make sure the curry sauce is greatly paired with your choices. I did good on this plate so it was one hell of a meal! The dishes were freshly cooked and it is still hot off the pan. Oh, btw, this hawker is easy to find because if it is open, usually the queue here is alarmingly long. So, if ever you are in Chong Pang and you are hungry as a bear, try this! About the drink, I was excited to see that they were selling bird's nest drink. I always wandered how it would taste (read my blog about how bird's nest is made). Honestly, I was a little bit disappointed. I expected it to be "more tasteful." But the taste was different from what I expected, it was like water with jell-o bits at the bottom of the glass. The price was higher than other drinks around so probably I expected more.

Masarap ba ang mga putaheng ito?  I am actually searching for the best char siew wanton noodle in town and i have yet to find one. This dish is one of the most popular and basic dish of the Chinese and the standard for this should be high. The noodle char siew sauce was a bit normal to taste, I needed to put a little spice on it so it would kick a little. The soup was served hot but again, needed condiments to add taste. But this is really good for a 3-dollar snack. The grass jelly drink is similar to the famous pinoy drink, gulaman, and it is a greatly paired with this delicacy.
