Hungry Ghost
I was attending an event in Serangoon area and I decided to have lunch at Bei Fang Ren Jia 北方人家 that I have been wanting to try out. This restaurant specialises in Northeastern and Szechuan cuisine. The menu (which can be found on their Facebook Page) has only Chinese titles so I took the liberty of […]
I was strolling around Vision Exchange after having dinner at A Kitchen when I discovered another Northeastern Chinese restaurant by the name of Yan Lai Ju 宴来居. While there is always a long queue at A Kitchen, there are only a few diners at Yan Lai Ju 宴来居. A Kitchen’s strategic location right in front […]
I realised that all the Northeastern Chinese restaurant that I have been to are all located in central and west parts of Singapore.

I recently discovered a new restaurant in Jurong East that specialises in Northeastern Chinese cuisine. A Kitchen 友间厨坊 is located in Vision Exchange, a small commercial building about 10 minutes away from Jurong East MRT station. I visited with a girlfriend on a Thursday evening and the restaurant was buzzing with activity. Business is so […]
So Good Char Chan Tang in Capitol Piazza is very different from the cha chan teng that I have been to in Hong Kong. Cha chaan teng in Hong Kong are mostly housed in nondescript buildings, such as the Mido Cafe I visited. You will probably walk past it without realizing if you didn’t go looking […]
