Breakfast - The most important meal of the day

Breakfast Set @ Makan Place

 Today the Foodlicious team is going to cover the most important meal of the day, breakfast!
We've been eating Makan Place's breakfast set for quite some time now, and we felt that we
should finally do a review.

For $2.00, the breakfast set comes with 2 eggs, 2 pieces of kaya toast, and a choice of drink.

The set is really worth it as its both tasty and filling, and let's face it, who doesn't love
egg and toast in the morning?

However, the eggs can be a little too runny if not cooked properly. As such, it would be advisable
to leave it to cook for a little longer than usual.

All in all, the breakfast set at Makan Place is really enjoyable, come get yours today!

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.

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.

Japanese @ Makan Place

Ebi Don and Chawanmushi from Makan Place!

The Ebi don costing $3.50 along with the Chawanmushi, which cost $1.20, adds up to a great price of $4.70! The chawanmushi is texture is soft and consistent, and almost the same standard as Sakae Sushi's. The rice is not dry as they give plenty of sauce. The Ebi is evenly fried and goes well with the sauce. All in all, i would say this meal is worth buying. 

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.

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.
