Lunch @ Old Kallang Airport Food Centre with Yaukwees











Another enjoyable day's outing with Dick, Phillip, Richard & myself.

Dick fetched Phillip & myself and we met Richard at Old Kallang Airport Food Centre around 11.30am.

Phillip, Richard & William had Lor Mee from Xin Mei Xiang Lor Mee. There were only about six or seven guys in queue with Phillip. Perhaps the lunch crowd did not storm in yet. Meanwhile, I was #3 in queue @ Toa Payoh Rojak.

Dick had Mutton Soup with rice. This is another popular stall at this food centre. The Toa Payoh Rojak was good and the Lor Mee was above average. Judge for yourself the quality of this dish by looking at Phillip's facial expression or is it that he was damn hungry? The best one I had was at Yuan Chun Famous Lor Mee @ 02-79/80 Amoy Street F C.

Next, we ordered a bowl of wonton mee from the second stall facing the main road and a plate of Fried Hokkien Mee from Nam Sing Hokkien Fried Mee. The wonton noodles was ok but the fried noodles was a total disaster. This stall has been over sold by food bloggers. Wonder how much they are paid to do a write-out? I believe I can fry better ones!

There is a good Fried Hokkien Mee at the Staff Canteen of Terminal 2 Changi Airport. It is the first stall on the right as you enter the door to the canteen. On the counter is a big bowl of crispy bullets (bak yue phok) mixed with ikan bilis at your disposal (self-service). The sambal is another killer.

After a sweaty lunch, we went to cool down at Koufu @ Kallang Leisure Park. We spent another 3.5 hours there. Now stomach full but eyes damn hungry! Many creatures of all shapes and sizes to feast our eyes on! SEE NO TOUCH NO CRIME!

Look out for some postings by mid June on Thai food in Sukhothai, Phitsanulok, Ayutthaya, Pattaya & Bangkok.
