  • SOY SAUCE CHICKEN, BEEF TENDON & MORE HK-STYLE RICE & NOODLES

    An exciting discovery thanks to Pasir Panjang Boy, Tinoq who raved about the soya sauce chicken at this Chinatown stall. Go for the Hong Kong style style chicken, but stay for the beef tendon noodles and a lovely chat with the friendly Chef Xie! He also cooks up off menu items for regular customers and does a mean Pork Knuckle with Nam Yu (red fermented bean curd).
