This chilli sauce looks like from Nando.

meat eaters really have so much problems , even in getting a service from a meat eating cafe.

After recommendation from a friend to try it out. It was quite tasty and do really like the super hot chilli. Really numbs the tongue though.
While have gone there quite a few times, have noticed that there is quite a plump lady manning the cashier, not sure it she is the daughter of Mr Ng (the owner, noticed he walks with a limp), that when you gave her a S$50 note to pay for the meal, while it is understandable that normally a cashier will asked whether if the customer have smaller change, but when you say no, immediately the face will turn, become very unhappy. Have notice that quite a few times already.

Even my friends do have the same experience. Was wondering if it is really that diffcult to give change out of S$50 notes.
Perhaps they should change the cashier, or next time before going over there, make sure carry smaller change

The guys, serving, clearing the tables, definitely are more friendly. That's for sure.
Anyway, still enjoyed the Wantan mee.

Why do you still want to go there when she sho you black face, we are the customer if no small change than ask not black face,

In fact, cut down going there already. If not for firends and family insistence sometimes to go over, as they enjoy it.
Would not bother at all.

Maybe next time use S$10,000 note.
Let's see what happen

Anyone here ever patronised them when they were in Duku Rd in the 60s ...their pushcart days.

In those days got plenty of choices lah. When I think back to the satay stalls at Beach Rd, wanton mee at Koek Rd/China town, Cozy Corner & Mont Dor at Orchard Rd food I remember how much has changed & what the PAP has cost to our food culture.

I remember eating wanton mee in the shop houses at China town where they even had cutting services. Noodles then were very long & sometimes you needed to ask them to use the scissors to cut down the noddles to manageable lengths

That memory has remained with me all these years. Nowadays it's more likely that you need 2 to 3 plates to fill you up:(

 

[kensington]

Why patronise a shop that doesn't wants your money ?

This is really a sinkie's problem.

My thought was on Albert Street, near Selegie.
I remember vividly when we used to go for supper after midnight show at Rex Theatre with the family. Always looking forward to watch midnight show (It was on every Saturday)

Stalls lining along Albert street, I still recall the very first stall sells Wan Tan Mee.
I also remember, somewhere at the middle sells Fried Hokkien Mee (Charcoal was used then), taste good too.

Shit... suddenly feel like eating wan tan mee.....

 

[erection2015]

didnt go Albert Street all that often but if i did then i usually went to Fatty Weng's ....liked their fried rice. Now so many Fatty Weng's until dunno which is real

Yes, I remember now, Fatty Weng's does have a restaurant along Albert street, somewhere towards the end of the street.
At night, they will have a chi char stall right in front of their restaurant. Air conditioning in restaurant was not the norm then.

Still I think, the hawker fare taste better.
Or perhaps, at that time, Fatty Weng restaurant, was also quite pricey too.

ya quite pricey compared to the other stalls thats why we went only occasionally and usually ordered only the fried rice and a veg dish or two.

Yes I would go there with friends after visiting the National Library. In those days everyone took the good & cheap food for granted. Also remember eating at Hock Lam Street.

Didn't realise how low the standard of indian rojak had become until recently when I re-discovered an ex-waterloo stall. They are now located at the Albert food court. Their rojak is definitely better than others I've tried.
