Cafe: The Hangar

Tucked at a corner of the Arab street you'll find The Hangar, a small little cozy cafe. I reckon the whole cafe houses about 30 pax at the max with some alfresco seating. I don't think they take any reservation, you can try but because we went in the morning, we didn't make any.


Decent variety to choose from.

Latte $5 and the girlfriend who loves coffee says this is good, so it is. Hahahhaa.


Hot Chocolate $5.50 no coffee for me so this is good too. 

Norwegian's catch. $18 looks like a small portion but it was just right after I'm done.


Ala Carte breakfast with Eggs, Bacon, Mushroom and toast, $15.

We both cleaned up our dishes. Maybe we were hungry but perhaps it was good. Nothing super wow but it was a good cozy brunch with her before heading to our beauty overhaul. 

Oh and another thing, it's NETT prices so that is another plus point from me. I just love NETT prices!

Seafood: Happy Crab

Some months ago I went on a crab adventure. Found a good place but the price is slightly on the high side. Nonetheless, it was a good adventure and I enjoyed the food even though I was complaining the whole night having to peel the shells... and etc. I sucked very badly at eating crabs so it was a super messy dinner.

Anyway they don't accept anything except cash and plus their crabs are like $45 each, so you better prepare at least $200 cash for 2 people.



Here's the size of the crab. Each person one.


Lala which was about $12 I think?


Fried Rice $10 I think, which we couldn't finish and this is cooked with Sambal.

Plain and simple vegetable that was good.


It is recommended that you SMS to the reservation number and let them know how many crabs you want to reserve. Apparently they will run out of crabs and 1 person per crab seems to be the norm. That time I asked, the uncle told me per crab is about 400/500grams, so that for about $45 is rather pricey but I can't deny that the crab was not bad. 

The total bill was about $120 if I didn't remember wrongly. If you're in for a BBQ crab adventure, reserve yours before going down. It gets very packed at night and the place has pretty limited seats.

Soon Huat Bak Kut Teh 順發肉骨茶

I randomly chanced upon this Bak Kut Teh just a few weeks ago and thankfully I ate it before the MacPherson branch closed down! Fret not, they are moving to Woodlands (even closer to me now keke)! You can find their address at the end of this short post.

I can't remember the pricing for everything but for a bowl of soupy goodness should be about $6. If you order 2 to share, the soup is refillable.

Comes with golden mushroom too!

This is more towards peppery then herbal. Slightly different from the other Woodlands Hong Ji Claypot Bak Kut Teh, which is also equally good.

Pork Knuckles should be $7/8 too.

Dried Bak Kut Teh, should be $7

This is the first dried Bak Kut Teh I have eaten and I really like it. Covered with strips of cuttlefish and dried chili, the meat is well marinated in dark sauce. If you haven't tried it you should. Though my boss, who is a Malaysian said he had even better ones in Malaysia, but he 'passed' this dish too!

Along with 2 more side dishes like youtiao and xiao cai, it was about $27 for 2 of us. 

NOTE: They have closed their MacPherson outlet, they have another outlet at Bedok, new outlet is at Woodlands. I'm not sure when they are open, but you could check out their Facebook page for more!

Kin Kin Chilli Pan Mee

The rave has long passed and then now I'm finally here.

The portion looks little but it's actually quite filling. For the pan mee, you get to choose different types of chilli for the different noodles. They have it labeled on the chili containers. 

I have been there twice and due to go back again soon. I would say it's good, affordable and worth to try once if you have to travel a long way here. For me, it's another option for lunch since it's nearby! :D


Here's a bowl of goodness without any chili at the moment.

So far I've always been eating no. 1 so I haven't try the others.

If you haven't tried this, you should come by some day. Delicious, affordable noodles if you like dried noodles with awesome chili.
