I chance upon this eatery one day in Geylang. It looked dirty and cramped, but it has an awesome crispy roast pork! The meat is savoury and the crispy skin is crunchy like biscuits. The roast duck is deboned and is beautifully done.
It offers a delicious black sauce that you can spoon over your rice or the meats. Must remember to ask for that.
I bought for my hubby as he loves roast pork. As he was busy, he had his roast pork after 5pm. The roast pork was still crunchy despite being wrapped up and in the air-con room for 3 hrs!
Boss Boon Cheng is taking orders for this CNY Eve dinner, a roast duck (S$20), chicken (S$15) and 1kg of roast pork (S$20). Collect before 1pm.
He also sells roast suckling pigs but as the prices of piglets have been soaring, he's not selling them this CNY.
genesissaid: Interesting. Do they serve the peking roast duck with the pancakes? Thanks, 31 Jan 2008 at 8:26 pm
eastcoastlifesaid: No. But you can create your own Peking Duck dish with crepe skin and Peking Duck sauce bought from Kwong Cheong Thye which is behind Garren Duck. 31 Jan 2008 at 10:28 pm

Something different for Singaporeans. I have heard of Trolley Noodles but this was the first time I tried one.
Owned by Old Hong Kong Tea House in Katong. Trolley Noodles first appeared in Hong Kong in the 1950's where the standard of living was much lower and many Chinese refugees were flooding into Hong Kong.
Each noodle stall was manned by one single boss who offered quick but yummy, cheap food. Their illegal stalls were constructed on wheels in order to run away from the law enforcement officers. Trolley Noodles was the staple of many locals who had limited spending power but still needed to fill their stomachs with yummy fare.
Noodle is bathed in a broth and you choose freely from a wide variety of tasty ingredients like curry fish balls, beef brisket, curry squid, pigskin, dried bean curd, vegetables ....etc. (It's like our local Yong Tau Foo 酿豆腐.) You can request for a bowl of rice instead of noodles. (It's like our Mixed Vegetable Rice 杂菜饭.)
Trolley Noodles costs S$4 (noodles with 5 ingredients). You can pick meat only or vegetarian or both. I love braised and stewed meats.
Try their Iced Blended Milk Tea (冰沙奶茶 S$2 ). The lady Boss thought of an ingenious way to retain the flavour of the drink, even though the ice has melted, the tea didn't taste diluted.
There is a selection of 6 specially concocted sauces to go with your noodles or as a dip!!
There is the Signature Spicy Chilli (spurt fire!!), Braised Brisket Sauce, Curry Sauce, Hong Kong Sha Cha Sauce, Special Sweet Sauce and Spicy Sauce. I love the first 4. The sauces were a treat!
Now, if Hong Kong immigrants and even Hong Kong chefs from hotels come to eat this Trolley Noodles, the flavour must be right!
