Nasi Goreng Ikan Bilis
One of the worst fried rice (maybe meals) I've had. Completely unseasoned. Soggy rice, sparse Ikan Bilis, no cucumbers - a blight upon humanity.

Not much to say, arrived burnt.
Le Le Hainanese Chicken Rice
Roasted Chicken Rice
One of the better chicken rice I've had, very moist and succulent chicken, boneless, fragrant rice, lots of chilli and a rather overcooked egg but overall still great.
Chef Wang's Fried Rice
Spicy Prawn Fried Rice
As with the chicken cutlet fried rice, the rice component here merits the same acclaim of delicious but oily. The prawns were cooked perfectly. Portion was very filling.
Kimly Seafood
Black Pepper Chicken Rice
Boy they did not skimp on the black pepper. Wonderful crunchy contrast to the tender chicken from carrots and onions. Peppery fiery bite from the sauce. Overcooked albeit still welcomed fried egg. Large portion and good value.

Roasted Chicken Rice
Very decent. Chicken was tender, a little bland but the rice made up for it by being quite flavourful. The chilli is solid too,
Heng Heng BBQ Chicken Wings & Satay
Chicken Satay
Tender but with a crispy exterior, well seasoned, good charcoal flavour. The peanut sauce was not overly sweet and had a good consistency for clinging to the chicken skewers.
Heng Heng BBQ Chicken Wings & Satay
Chicken Wings
Perfectly smoky, superbly crispy skin but somehow still incredibly juicy. The chilli provided a solid contrast to cut through the rich and fatty wings. Stellar.
Fun Toast
Lor Mee
A very decent lor me. The sauce was flavourful and had a great consistency. The noodles had a good texture - a little softer than al dente but that's how I like it. I thought the completely shredded chicken, as in like a wild beast got to it, was a little unecesary - perhaps it shields them from overcooking allegations but overall the meal was fantastic. The minced garlic gave a nice pungency to the meal to cut through the richness of it all paired. The crispy onions provided a nice crunch along with the tau kwa too. I am a happy camper

Nasi Kandar
My first time trying the fried chicken at this place and I think it can hold it's own against a Jollibee. I had it to dine-in and the chicken came piping hot and crispy. The spicy variant packed a strong punch that paired well with the mild curry. The poppadoms were like if you described to a cook how to make them and he gave it his best attempt - a hollow imitation. The boiled egg, rather miserable. Generous with the cucumbers though. Overall a hearty and satisfying meal.

Half Boiled Egg Spring Onion Beef Yakniku Bowl
If you're going to charge $3 for a half-boiled egg at least I shouldn't have to peel it but for the misers at this establishment the labour to peel an egg was too much, not to mention it arrived cold. Doesn't help that the basically boiled beef was mostly disgusting, grissly, slimey, and fatty. Overly sweet one-dimensional sauce. A personal offence in the form of a dish.
Thai Thai Vegetarian
Stir-Fried Basil Minced Mushroom with Rice & Egg
As a vegetarian alternative to actual pad kra pow? Very good. As a dish? Still very good. Not missing the meat at all actually the managed to pack as much flavour into the dish without the meat and the mushrooms they use satifactorily provide the bite the dish requires. The egg had jammy yolk to boot. There was a good amount of veges in the form of carrots and long beans which provided a contrasting crunch. Overall, a superb execution of a dish.

Chicken Curry Omelette Rice
One of the better coffeeshop japanese curries. Lets be honest they are all using the same S&B Golden Curry roux cubes but the execution of the other ingredients is where these stalls can set themselves apart and this one deliver perfectly tender LARGE chunks of potato and carrot along with a crispy and tender chicken cutlet. The omelette was a little thin and sad but overall this was extremely satisfying as a meal. It needed a bunch of boncabe (chilli) to complete it though.

Spicy Chicken Cutlet Fried Rice
Very tasty, good portion, a little on the oilier side. The culet was moist and yet crispy. The fried rice has a strong umami taste, after a couple of bites I felt a sensation of yearning for more. Probably msg but me likey.
Ipoh Curry Noodle
Ipoh Curry Chicken Noodle
The curry was a little too sweet for me, the noodles were okay, the chicken was tender but my god the slipper boiled chicken skin was extremely unappetising. I nibbled on the chicken for protein and discarded most of the dish. Braised egg might as well have been a tennis ball.

Char Siew & Roast Pork Rice
I had this at night after refridgerating it and even then the roast pork mantained is crackling texture. The charsiu was good too, slight smokiness, could've done with a little more. The braised egg was extremely overcooked and miserable.
George's @ Wild West
Tomahawk Pork Chop
Came here for my dad's birthday and very unfortunately whilst his fish and chips sucked, my pork chop slapped. Some bites were a little dry some parts were blush pink and Juicy. The sear was great all around so it had a crunchy (?) exterior and a rather delectable interior. The mushroom sauce was reminscent of my own cooking, very good, needless to say. Mash was bog standard and at least the seasoned the otherwise simply steamed veges.
Tang Tang Mala Tang
Mala Dry Jumble - Extra Spicy
It delivered. Very satisfying as a meal - i ate it for three meals as I ordered a very large portion but all the individual items were cooked right, not overly greasy and not much to complain about. Please do not eat mala cold out of the fridge, fair warning.

Chicken Bulgogi Omelette Rice
The bulgogi was okay but since when does bulgogi have kimchi in it... It was rather sour and unpleasant to me, not a fan of kimchi but hey if you are, you'd like this dish.

Fried Fish Curry Rice
I usually go for the chicken cutlet but decided to try the fish this day and yeah it was great. Minus point for stinky cabbage.

Classic Chicken Pot
Divine for moments I feel like exporting hellfire in my porcelain throne. There's just nothing quite like it, succulent and tender chicken smothered in an inferno that passes for a braise.

Classic Tiramisu
Quite a large portion and I mostly enjoyed it. The worst part about this Tiramisu was actually the coffee used to soak the lady finger. Yes, this coffeeshop's tiramisu's worst aspect is the coffee. Utterly flavourless. The mousse and creams were good though.

Chicken Curry Omelette Rice
Perfectly cromulent. Was it stellar? No, but I have never had a store give this much curry and as a curry drinker I was much satiated. Was the omelette nice and runny? No, it was well cooked as was the chicken - both on the tougher side but hey, perfectly cromulent.
