The Handburger

 


Food delivery from newly re-opened hamburger place, don't know why this place closed down but now its re-opened with a new menu. My order of 3 burgers, 3 drinks and 3 sides came up to S$58 including delivery. 

Healthy side dishes of southern fried quorn (meat substitute) only the quorn didn't turn up. Corn chips with cheese sauce is not nacho cheese but nutty & mature. I really like the freshly made corn chips available at Soup Spoon and its other F&B brands.

Drinks are iced teas and a citrus lime drink, pre-packaged. No straws here, peel the top off to drink. Burgers are really good, its half the size of the version at Chili's. All beef in brioche bun or quorn (meat substitute) patty.

Krapow Thai Kitchen




Name of this restaurant has my favorite dish in it! Located inside Far East Plaza, that we all know has the best hawker food in Singapore. I ordered a rice noodle main course, side dish, drink and pickles for one person, S$55 including home delivery.


The crackling pork belly is either served with Chinese style mustard or Thai jeaow sauce. This jeaow sauce is vinigery chili with I think spring onion and a few more seasonings inside, really delicious. Pork fat has no taste, I've noticed that recently in the clean tasting pork.


Drunkard noodles! It doesn't have any alcohol in it at all, it's just really delicious. Thought I would try this after last week's post on weeping tiger beef from Saveur Thai, really delicious trendy foods. I think there are other restaurants that serve both these dishes together.


Homemade pickles is actually mui choy that is usually braised with pork belly in dark sauce, this one has a really piggy smell and taste totally different from the pork belly used above. Lemongrass drink pre-packaged, I still prefer the drinks that come in a plastic cup.

Saveur Thai


 

Franchise eatery that boasts no pork and no lard. It's as authentic Thai as you can get, at least that's what I am counting on based on the reviews.

Trying out the Isan herbal beef soup, lots of herbs that you can munch on to get that full herbal flavor coupled with soft tender beef. No kway teow here but I still managed to finish the bowl of soup for dinner.


Weeping tiger beef salad, more like beef fillet with jeaow sauce that's a bit sour, the seasonings it comes in is delicious enough without the additional sauce.


Drinks of Thai lemon tea with that red fruit thing inside, very authentic. And lemongrass tea that is very mild and gently sweet.

Vatos Urban Tacos




Korean Mexican food and they also sell that new Mexican soda Jarritos. I ordered kumquat and grapefruit but they sent me cola and lime, such classic flavors no complaints from me.


Carne asada quesadilla! Anything carne asada always tastes the best and they do the quesadilla here really compact with cheese, onions and sauces. Served with pickled cabbage, not kimchi tho'.


Baja fish tacos that is really Korean, with soft batter fried fish and tons of white cabbage topped with salsa.


Thank god for Jarritos soda, loving those straws, wish there was more.

Subway Sandwiches




I love this place for the freshly prepared sandwiches, today its classic club sandwich with almost all the extras coz there is no extra charge for extras like olives and pickles. You can choose from 6 different types of buns, I also tried the wraps (prefer kebab wraps instead) and flatbread that is like spongy naan.



Side orders of sweet corn that I ate up in an instant. Meatballs without pasta that still came in pasta sauce with unmeltable cheese. These meatballs are similar to smaller dense meatballs sold locally and that pasta sauce is all tangy herby tomatoes.


I also ordered the tomato soup that not as tangy as the pasta sauce and has some other veges in it, carrots I think. The mushroom soup is very shroomy but kinda watered down and starchy in texture.


I love subway cookies! There's choc chip, double choc, white choc macadamia, raspberry cheesecake, oatmeal raisin and peanut butter. It's soft and dense, really sweet too.

Fave Foods




Cannot find Cambodian unripe pickled fruits in chili salt here in Singapore, this is the next best thing, frozen fruit bags.

Croissant sandwiches are not as common as waffles or buns but it still can be found at some bubble tea takeaway counters. 

Vietnamese skewers and pickled veges. I am addicted to these pickled veges and can eat it on its own as a snack.

Iced tea mixes as well as soda water mixes that I am absolutely obsessed with right now. All non-alcoholic, cannot drink alcohol when my body is not well.

Zhi Char main dish meats, I eat this like meat candy for tea-time or supper. $15 as compared to $5 from bubble tea shops, almost the same thing for much less.

Cambodian Street Food




With 7 Wonders Seafood Restaurant, I finally get to try Cambodian street food at the same time as all the other people there. The dry roast squid with dipping sauce reminds me of Isan Thai herbal chicken soup, ordered the honey pork ribs to mix the dipping sauce to make it more palatable, if not I recommend eating it with rice. TDF!



Cambodian BBQ platter with dipping sauces from Siam Kitchen. Nice grilled meats and the salad used to mop up meat sauces is delicious. The dipping sauces are quite authentic and kinda not necessary, I feel like I should have it with guava or other types of fruits instead. There is a sweet salty chili, a mayo cream and a tamarind spice.



This is northern Thai sausage (sai ua) that is a blend of herbs and pork, and Isan sausage (sai krok isan) that contains fermented pork and rice. Both orders cost S$15 each from Beerthai House Restaurant @ golden mile complex. So far prices of these dishes have been almost the same as Cambodian markets but these sausages are easily double the price. 


This one is Thai street food, not Cambodian. Mama instant noodle seafood salad, its like som tum but with additional instant noodle seasoning. Its a main course on its own, I cannot wait for pickled fruit to come back, its been closed for a while.
