Kway Chap @ Brew Cafe 171

June 26, 2020 by Ho Lang

Kway Chap @ Brew Cafe 171

I am not bragging, but this is the best kway chap stall since Xin Yun Kway Chap at Tampines Round Market closed down and also the old uncle shop at Old Airport Road Hawker Centre closed as well.

As they say, one mountain will be taller than one mountain. Never mind if you didn’t understand that, that’s fine. Just know that if you bow out of the race for the best kway chap, then the next best stall will eventually over-take you as they continually hone their craft and execute their unique flavours.

Pork as we all know, is pork, and the sauce is just sauce, but the art of combining pork and sauce just makes this stall at block 171 Yishun Ring Road a rare find and a gem in the making. The chilli that is served complimentary with the dish rocks and is totally delicious. Haven’t had something so nice in the mornings for a while now. Oh, if you wanna visit, better come earlier in the mornings because they tend to start to run out of stuff as the morning dims to start of noon.

Located at a strange coffee shop known as Brew Cafe 171, I guess the boss is probably a younger son of a coffee shop big boss? Trying to sound cool perhaps? Anyway, there is sufficient seating for a small coffee shop. Social distancing in place but really, it’s so crowded that it looks socially dangerous at some points. Dangerously delicious mostly.

Bon Appetit!

Toast Box Mee Rebus (Review)

Toast Box Mee Rebus (Review)

As a child I have loved the old school flavours of local delights such as the humble Mee Rebus. I don’t know where this dish originated from, maybe from the kitchen of some makchik or better still as a result of a mistake in someone’s haste to prepare dinner, and this new dish was discovered.

Whichever the manner it was created, we can only celebrate it by enjoying it. Which is what I am doing now. The one that Toast Box offers is by far one of the more consistent and easily available version. The sauce is thick and the ingredients are always superbly prepared. One of these days I am gonna make this dish and it will be the best and easiest thing to do.

But till then, I will continue to enjoy this yummy breakfast meal. Shiok!
