I came to Maxwell Food Center, hoping to try the highly reputable chicken rice (think it's called Tian Tian) but I could not find the stall @#$%*&^%$. Did I go to the wrong place ? I should have checked. Sigh. Should have just gone back to Yet Con @ Purvis Street for the chicken rice.
Since I was there, I must as well EAT...other things.
Carrot cake (black-fried with sweet sauce) - Chai Tow Kway 炒黑的 !
Not so nice fishball mee pok. This is nicer.
Peanut pancake. I forgot what is this called in Mandarin. Can someone tell me ? This used to be a crispy and thin kind-of-pancake (like a super cripsy crepe) in which the peanut bits and sugar are the fillers- called Mi Chiam Kueh (in Hokkien). Usually only see the soft version now.
Fried dough with sweet filling (also comes in savory version) -Hum Chee Peng(in Hokkien)
Red bean filling inside the sweet Hum Chee Peng
Need I say ? Of course, I was not satisfied because I did not have my chicken rice fix! The rest of the food was just ok. Nothing to rave about.

In Maxwell Food Centre, you should try the Ho Kee's porridge, tofu and yu-sheng.
ReplyDeleteThen there's the guo tie (fried dumplings)! The Hainanese curry rice stall very nice. The claypot rice. The fish soup. Wah! So many nice food!
See la, who ask you dun call me!
Next time anybody come to Singapore, ask me for recommendations to food stalls! haha.....
Alamak, how did you miss Tian Tian?! I think it's the stall with the longest queue leh! I doubt it has moved since I was last back there, but when you enter Maxwell from the main road, it's on the left, on the same side as the carpark. Never mind, I go back, take revenge and post photos for you, heh heh!!
ReplyDeleteOMG! You missed Tian Tian? Neber mind. Next visit, I eat another extra plate on your behalf. Hee Hee. Can claim from you?
ReplyDeleteECL, I know Ho Kee (other branch). But the Ho Kee in Maxwell 冷清清 leh. Maybe I was there early, so everything not opened yet...arrrghhh
ReplyDeleteCan you leave me your home address and telephone(by email) so that can
"向你讨债" when I'm bac next time? ;p
Shilpa, I walked inside the food center so many times trying to look for it. I know it has not moved but I can't find it. Dun tell me I went to the wrong food center? I went to the one next to the car park leh! Cannot find!
ReplyDeletefleck, sigh....now I dunno how on earth I missed it. I was also lookin for queues in the food center but cannot find queues that day leh! How come I so suay ? Singapore food considered relatively cheap liow and still wan to make claims arh? ;p
