Serangoon Garden Confectionary - Great Buns Everyday

Introducing my favourite breakfast hunt - Serangoon Garden Bakery & Confectionary.

Selling a range of different buns from sausage, hamburger (it's actually iluncheon meat), peanut, ham & cheese, butter, raisin, otah, yam....blah blah blah.... to egg tarts, cream puff, cakes (walnut, banana, butter...etc) at prices found in the 70's.

Most of the buns go for $0.50 to $0.60 (where to find these days?! esp after the GST hike).
All the buns are freshly baked and they usually end their day by mid-afternoon when all the food is sold out. This ensures that nothing gets leftover and customers get fresh supplies everyday. This is prbly one of the factors that attributed to the success of Ah Seng.



Other than the freshness of the food, they are also generous in the ingredients used for the buns.

Personal favourites include peanut bun (yum yum with LOADS of peanut) and hamburger (thick slice of luncheon meat as opposed to others with thin miserly sad looking slice). Eat it with a cup of hot coffee or milk tea.....hmmm....heavenly....


Definately recommended to bread lovers.

Must Tries: Peanut, Hamburger, Banana cake

Haato - Generous Servings

They are very generous with the servings. BIG plus.

So far I've tried
1. Chocolate - nothing exceptional but it's not bad tasting, just normal gelato.
2. Pistachio - thick and creamy but too sweet for my liking3
. Yuzu sorbet - refreshing and light
4. Black sesame - creamy and full of sesame taste but again a little too sweet for my liking.Will definately go back again.

To try list include
1. Green tea/with red bean2
. Waffles!

GO before 1st sept, prices are set to increase by $0.50 per scoop.

Must Tries: Yuzu

Lao Song Huat - My favourite Noodle Store

Yep. This is my favourite noodle stall in Singapore and my default lunch item during weekends when we are at home. And yes, I just had it this afternoon (today is Sunday) again.

I love the noodles from this stall - tangy and smooth in texture. It's like those scenes you see in cartoons where they can slurp the entire noodle into their mouth in 1 breath. And the stall owners are not stingy with their ingredients. Together with the heavenly noodles, you will get lots of fishballs, fishcake slices and lean meat slices as well - simply delicious!A must try!

Must Tries: Any noodle!

Astons Express - Bang for Bucks

I would recommend this place for the following reasons.
1. Value for $$
2. Good quality mains

Me and Mr HB went back for lunch 2 days in a row. We had the rib eye($11.90), new york strip ($13.90) fried fish ($5.90) and some beef burger ($5.50).

All the items mentioned comes with a choice of 2 sides except the burger. The beef is nicely cooked to specification (in this case medium), pink in the middle but not too bloody. Juicy and succulent.
Fried fish is tender on the inside and not too oily.

The only let down was the side can be better. The onion rings were cold and soft. Mashed potato and coleslaw was decent. I heard that the potato salad is good, so this will be something I'll be having on my next visit.

Found in a little corner coffee shop in Serangoon Garden, it can get pretty crowded during peak hours (read meal times).
So you have to have a little patience if you choose to dine there.
