Fatty Weng is definitely one of the best "zhi cha" I've tasted! I've been visiting them every now and then for about 7 years and the food still tastes as good as ever.
Unlike most "zhi cha" places, you get to dine in an air-conditioned place, which is a huge plus. Service is fast and friendly too.
As for the price, I wouldn't say it's value for money though. A dinner for two cost me $30 . It's not surprising though, as there seem to be a lot of caucasian diners here.
I too tried their XXXL Chicken Cutlet. It tastes pretty good, but it is really oily! Just looking at them preparing it makes you feel really guilty for eating such unhealthy food.
At $3 a pop, it is not exactly cheap too. I guess it's good if you got a friend to share the serving with.
This is one of my favourite indian food store for roti prata and teh tarik! Mainly because it is near me and my buddy's home and the roti prata here is pretty nice. But it is usually very crowded and smokers probably won't like this place, as there are only two smoking tables out of the many tables there.
I finally got the chance to try this! Let me tell you, their curry puffs are really like nothing I've ever tasted. Regular curry puffs' fillings are "dry", while 1A Crispy Puffs' are filled with real curry! And the crust is absolutely fantastic!
I was never a fan of curry puffs until I tried theirs.
If you like Crystal Jade's 小笼包, I'm sure you'll like 鼎泰豐's too. Feels like heaven as the soup seeps out from within with every bite!
I tried their noodles too, which is really nice. 色 - The noodles looks really appetizing and they come nicely arranged. 香 - Smells great when the bowl was served! 味 - And the taste is of course nothing but great. The noodles are smooth and the soup just perfect.
You HAVE to drop by this branch to try out their 小笼包!
Totally agreed! The place has a very sleazy feel to it, with live canto pop music, "ah lians" trying to get you to buy drinks, and terrible pole dance performances.
During the only time that I was there, the male singer walked off during his singing simply because he was mad at a particular customer for a reason unknown to me. Absolutely unprofessional.
Alessi is an Italian kitchenware company which is famous for its colorful and playful designs.
Their products can really turn the otherwise dull and boring kitchen into a fun place to cook and prepare food. Such as the futuristic-looking lemon squeezer, the cutesy eggcup, and the Anna G. wine bottle corkscrew pictured above.
For people who believes in form over function (that's not saying that Alessi products lack functionality), this is the perfect place to get your kitchenware!
Hong Kong cafes are all the rage recently! And this Tong Shui Cafe along Liang Seah Street is one of them. But in my opinion, not the best of them.
The cafe is usually pretty packed (these days, which Hong Kong cafe isn't?) so big groups might find it difficult to get seats.
I tried their Fried Rice with Salted Fish and Wolfberries and Iced Yin Yong, which are decent. But at $8.88, I am inclined to say that it's a little high on price.
They also have the very popular Nissin noodles, which I should try one day!

Overall, a must-try!

In fact, I'm heading there right now! :D

Chong Pang Nasi Lemak has got the nicest chicken wings and drumsticks that I've ever tried! Superbly crispy and tasty, and the size is huge.
The nasi lemak rice itself and the other side dishes are good too. Queue is usually pretty long, so be prepared to wait.
And the shop itself is not very accessible unless you drive. But definitely worth the trip!

Looking for a shopping mall for all your home furnishing needs? Park Mall is the place to go! Well, provided you have the budget to match.
The shops here mostly carry upmarket designer furniture such as Philippe Starck and Herman Miller.
If you got the dough, you might just find the perfect things to beautify your home. Otherwise, even window-shopping here is not a bad idea at all!
