Hey, Hayden. I always hesitate about what to eat when I am in the hawker center. Since you recommend Zi Char, I can tell what to eat next time~:D
ReplyDeleteStill have lots of other variety, so you must slowly chose. However not all hawker center Zi Char is nice so must also chose wisely. While eating you can also bond with your family or friend because Zi Char portion usually for 2 to 3 person. You can try it anytime you want to:)
ReplyDeleteHello Hayden! Nice pictures you have there! Definitely mouth-watering! I'm not a chilli lover myself, but the rest of my family are! So maybe I'll bring them to Dempsey's Long Beach since you recommended the Black Pepper Crab and Curry Fish Head there! Looking forward to your next blog entry! :)

Hi HAYDEN, awesome blog you have here. Shouldn't you consider treating the class to try out your recommendation? It would be a fruitful trip as you can gain lots of information as well as class bonding. Do consider my suggestion, don't you? So.......am looking forward to your next post! Ciaoz
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice suggestion you have over here! I will consider.
DeleteThe zi char stall I always go to if we ever eat zi char is at the round market at Tampines Street 11, and its called Sheng Li Restaurant. Very tasty food, recommended would be the kung pao chicken, fried pork ribs and hotplate tofu.
