Ma La Guo @ Bugis Village

Hi readers, just wanna intro this stall to you all. It's Ma La Tang at Bugis Village. I dunno what is the exact address but it's right at the back near Queens Street. Beside this fruit drinks stall there's this small street and the stall is hidden in there.

Comments: I really love the spiciness of the dish. It may be overwhelming spicy for some people but not for me. You can choose the dishes you want. Personally I like things like crab meat, luncheon meat and cabbage. 

But the "star" of the dish is actually the tang hoon. It is super delicious. Be careful when slurping the tang hoon, it's quite slippery so don't get choke. 

Overall review: Do go eat this if you really like spicy ma la stuff. I recommend the dry one. Order a fried wok together with a bowl of rice and it is a comfortable dinner. It's not that expensive too, around $10 for a big wok full of ingredients.

Details of the place: As above in the intro.

Rocku Yakiniku

Came across this place first with my friend when the friendly door hostess pulled me and my friend in to have a look. Went with girlfriend on a separate occasion to have dinner and here's my review.

Ordered the set meal at $58 for 2

Salad as part of the menu. Not bad.

Their Garlic Rice which tastes extremely delicious. I guess they can't really go wrong with garlic fried rice. Not too oily but very fragrant.

The BBQ pit which provides a smokeless environment so you won't have the BBQ smell on your clothings.

The mushrooms that will never get cooked no matter how long you put it on the BBQ. The brown ones gets cooked if put directly on top of the BBQ, but the other 2 with the aluminium can't cook

Scallop Mentaiko

Comments: Scallop cooked nicely and not too salty compared to other scallop mentaiko I've eaten

Assortment of Meat.

Comments: A nice assortment of different type of meats.The meats were fresh and marinated well. Very tasty and when cooked properly just melts in your mouth.

Overall Review: A nice and cosy place for dinner, won't feel smelly due to the bbq smell. The price could be a bit steep for 2 people. It's best to go in a group to share the cost. On certain days they have special events too. You could like their Facebook page below for more info.

Lenas by MOF

A trip to Lenas is always a headache. Why? Because they a superbly wide variety of food. The menu has so many pages, you'll have a big dilemma on what to choose and being there so many times, I can safely say the food is nice. Which is also why I like to go there for a meal, especially with a big group of friends. Anyway went there for lunch 1 day with 2 friends and this is what we ordered.

 Iced Mint Pompelmo Tea $5

Comments: This tasted something like a mojito. Except for the lack of alcohol. Definitely lot of mint in it. A nice refreshing drink on a hot day. A bit expensive though, would rather drink their hoegarden, which is always on promotion.

Mixed Mushroom Pasta add Egg $13.90 + $1

Comments: A personal favorite. In fact I always like pasta with mushrooms and cream sauce. The egg yolk is only for visual effect actually, because it does not really add any flavor to the pasta. The sauce was slightly salty though, as is with most cream sauce, but the noodles are cooked nicely. A nice dish overall.

White Wine Vongole Hot Pan + Pilaf Rice $12.80 + $2

Comments: Tried a bit of this dish, the rice was fragrant by at $2, I feel it's kinda expensive. The stock was did not have a strong smell of white wine though. The vongole had quite a nice portion and the fire kept the stock hot.

Italian Sausage Pizza $14.50 for 8"

Comments: Their pizzas are the thin type. Sausages slightly over baked but overall it must have been nice because my friend managed to finish it even though she said she was not that hungry. 

Overall review: Actually this is only a tiny percentage of the food available in that place. I would recommend getting their membership card if you will frequent the place. A lot of promotions and offers as a member at only $10. The 10% disc should be enough to cover and it can be used at other MOF outlets all over Asia.

Details of the place: You may get more details at their website by clicking -->MOF as they have a few outlets.

Recommendation: 7/10
