Simple yet Nice!

Sesame Chicken with Rice + Egg

Few days ago, I went to Makan Place for lunch again! There are many stalls where I can choose from, but I wanted to have something light and simple just like my home cooked food. Braised Sesame Chicken! Located all the way inside of the canteen.

The braised chicken have a smooth and soft texture, but not tender enough . I can smell sesame oil when I had the chicken and it tasted sweet with the (not so thick) dark soy sauce and very little spring onions. Although you can see that there is a layer of oil over the sauce, it doesn't feel oily at all because it blends in so well with the chicken and rice I had. As always, I like to have gravy on my rice which makes it wet and delicious to eat.

One thing that I will never forget is that I'm always get plenty of white rice from the stall auntie and the aunties there are really nice to their customers. When I was about to pay this meal to the auntie, a coin fell straight into my bowl of sesame chicken. And she straight away exchanged another bowl of chicken for me when she knew it, without me paying them. I felt so happy about their service and I really think they deserved to be thanked when they care about food. Moreover, their queue is always fast as they sell only three main dishes(curry chicken, sesame chicken & chicken broth). I remember that the temperature of their food they served is just hot. However, I noticed that their eggs were cooked before hand, so when I ordered, it was cold but still edible.

Overall, you can see that the presentation of this dish is not so clean. So I would give a rating of 6.5/10.

Ayam Panggang... Mmm...

Ayam Panggang@Makan Place

Feeling like having some Malay/Indonesian food? Well look no further, because today the
Foodlicious Team is going to cover a very delectable dish indeed, Ayam Panggang, here at
Makan Places Panggang stall!

I really loved their Ayam Panggang. Having tried it for the first time, the flavor of the sauce
really surprised me, having a strong taste, but not too over the top. It complimented the chicken and curry rice nicely.

I also appreciated the service of the staff, doing their job with a smile, and kindly obliging when
I requested for more sauce.

All in all, for a reasonable cost of $3.50, I feel that the students here at NP should definitely
check this stall out!

Mos Burger's Burgers!

  

Poolside - Mos Burger!

Having a craving for Western Food? Well, today the Foodlicious Team is going to cover Mos Burger's, well, burgers! We tried the Cheeseburger Meal and it was delicious! The burger, compared to other F&B stalls like
McDonald's and Burger King, tastes better and also feels like it's less oily.

Unlike other F&B stalls, Mos Burger gives us hungry customers the chance to change it up a little, offering other set meals like fries set, salad set, and croquette set.

Also, Mos Burger has Iced Milk Tea, where they provide milk for you to add in your drink.

And last but not least, I bought chicken, or Mos Chicken, as a side. I was pleasantly surprised by the chicken as not only was it juicy, it was just breast meat that they gave. In my personal opinion, it is better than other F&B outlets like KFC.

All this at an affordable price of  around $7! Come and get yours today!

Fried Chicken with Spicy Tofu

 Makan Place - Fried Chicken with Spicy Tofu

Situated beside the pizza stall in Makan place, lies the HotPlate Stall. It sells many different kinds of hotplate dishes like Fried Chicken and Tofu hotplate. It cost just $3.50 which is value for money for it's portion. But sadly the dish isn't that great.


The spicy tofu tasted like mush with chilli sauce poured on it, it also didn't look very appealing as well. The tofu was all mushed up. The fried chicken was okay but wasn't really special. The soup on the other hand was actually not that bad. It was like a preserved vegetable soup which cut into the richness of the spicy tofu dish.

Overall, I would give this 2 out of 5 stars for it's mushy strong aftertaste.

Kaki Fuyong

Kaki Fuyong!

Today we are doing a review on Makan Place's Japanese Cuisine's dish, Kaki Fuyong!

This dish is served with omelette with chicken and comes with rice and soup,
all costing a very reasonable price of 3.50!

Of course, one can have a choice of oyster or prawn instead of chicken.

The omelette goes very well with the chicken, and it's what I usually order if i have
lunch at their stall.

Of course, some might say (including my friends) that the meal is slightly too salty,
but if one can look, or "taste" past that, then Kaki Fuyong is a very enjoyable meal.

Poolside: Chicken Rice

Chicken Rice @ Poolside!

Not sure what to have for lunch? Or you're just thinking of saving you money? Well, nothing beats the classics. Chicken Rice! The classic food that almost everyone has when they just don't know what to eat. This chicken rice has a somewhat different taste compared to other places in Singapore. I personally find the chicken rice "rice" very fragrant and the chicken, both steam or roasted, the right texture that blends nicely with the rice. You can never go wrong when ordering this typical singaporean food. For only $2.30, this is probably the cheapest food you can find in NP! Go check out the chicken rice stall at Poolside.

So, what do you think about this chicken rice?

Dried Chilli Chicken with Rice

This set meal above is from Taiwan Sedap @ Makan Place which costs $3.60.

The meal mainly consists of a plate of Rice, Dried Chilli Chicken dish and a bowl of soup.I shall not say much about the rice as it passed the criteria it needed to, in my opinion - to be cooked without it being too soft, or too hard.

The Dried Chilli Chicken was extremely delicious. Not only was the Chicken tender, soft and fresh, it also had a very subtle taste of the dried chill in it. On top of that, the sweet sauce that was used to cook it toned the dried chilli's taste by quite a bit. 

The soup was really interesting! It was not just like the normal chicken rice soup that I was expecting. It turned out to be a salty soup. Something which goes along pretty well with the Dried Chilli Chicken dish, I would say!

Oh yes, chilli/spice lovers! This would be a perfect choice for you. This meal's definitely worth a try. I would give it an overall rating of 3/5.
