Choo Choo Chicken

My girlfriend asked us to tried their fried chicken and indeed I find them nicer than 4 fingers!

They are located at Haji lane, right opposite Raffles Hospital. The restaurant is very small and limited seating. Their menu are mainly fried chicken and a few sides that all. We ordered 24 pieces of Soy, 8 pieces of Original and 16 pieces of Spicy, CC burger, rice cake and 7 drinks.

Rice cake - Chewy and not too bad

Soy - Crispy, tender, not so salty, very nice!

Spicy - This is nice too, I will say is like level 3 buffalo wings but is crispy. I can't really take spicy so the rest of my friends were enjoying it than me, lol

Original - Quite blend thou crispy, nah

CC Burger - I miss this! Is a great combination! Kimichi, tuna, rice. You also can DIY yourself at home lol

Total is about $20 per pax, hub was commenting that it was expensive just to eat fried chicken. Well, I feel worth it :)

Square pizza? Yes they serve square pizza here, don't blame me for been a 'sua gu' (geek) is really my first time eating square pizza lolz. I choose Hawaiian flavour for our square pizza, it was slice into 9 pieces just nice for 2 adult and a child. And we saw a few ordering their Roasted Chicken so we ordered a whole chicken to shared. This place somehow remind me of New York New York even their menu are quite similar.

The roasted chicken is huge I should have ordered 1/2 to shared instead. The chicken can be quite bland without going with the sauce and it was served with a generous amount of fries. We like the pizza at least the crust is not so thick that will make us feel so bloated and each slices are just nice and not served in big pieces.

Total bill comes up to $34 after the gst and the service tax. I will come back again to tried their mini burger it is also a nice place for a mini gathering with your friends :)

Square Hawalian Pizza $12.90

Roasted Whole Chicken $11.90

Xin Yuan Ji 新源记

Xin Yuan Ji is one of my favourite Fish Soup place, met up my girlfriend and my brother for dinner here. This place is among the stretch of the famous steamboat place directly opposites Bugis Juction and right beside Apple Strudel. This place is always crowded plus their service is horrible and attitude, forget about this for the sake of the nice fish soup lolx

Price has eventually went up again seems like they are always increasing their price. A bowl of Fish Meat Noodle Soup cost you about $5.50 kinda of expensive thou. I love their thick, fragrant milky soup and the chunky fish meat inside but prepare to get thirsty after finishing the soup lolx. My girlfriend suggested their Fried Baby Squid and the Prawn Paste Chicken Wings. Fried Squid was crunchy and sweet and not that spicy as for the Prawn Paste Chicken Wings I would said is pretty normal I still prefer the one at Bei Zhang in Yishun (another brunch of Taste of Thailand). The Prawn Paste Chicken Wings here does not have the strong aroma of the prawn paste taste. Overall I personally feel that the Fish Soup here are the best comparing to other dishes.

Ji De Chi (记得吃)

Meet up with a group of friends and head for dessert at 记得吃. My boy order their most popular Durian with Pomelo and sago. I had a nibble of it, it was very nice, the durian paste was smooth and fragrant especially that scoop of durian flesh in it. My friends also order the Mango Pomelo Sago and Mango Sago with Black Pearl. Mango Pomelo don't taste as sweet as the Mango with Black Pearl but both are quite nice too. For me I order the Ice Red Bean with rice ball. The rice ball was very chewy and soft and it was serve in coconut syrup. We also order the Durian Roll and this is like a must for my girlfriend who is a big fan of their Durian Roll. The roll was filled with generous durian flesh so durian lover do order this for a try.

Do expect a lot of crowd especially on weekend and a small reminder not to expect a good services here.

Nando's Chicken

This is their first branch in Singapore I heard they have it in most part of Malaysia. Went over to try during lunch time, it was pack and the queue was very long and they don't take any reservation so if you really want to eat than you just have to wait. We went in a group so we order the family size for 4 pax to share, it comes with a whole chicken and 4 large sides to choose from the menu. The sides are not really large and I find that the chicken is too small to share among 4 people especially if you have a big eater like guys. There is also a few level of spiciness for you to choose from so we go for the mild. I can't really taste the spicyness maybe next time I will try the 'hot'.

 

Nando's Chicken 'Mild' level

Tender but serve warm and not hot. Try to go with their special sauce taste nice too.
