Today's shortlist
Same picks for everyone today. New order after Singapore midnight.
Wanton Mee
Springy egg noodle, char siew, those plump wantons. SG-style sweetish-dark or soup.
Thai Green Curry
Coconut-rich, herb-fragrant, gentle heat building up sneakily. Eggplant and chicken in a green dream.
Curry Chicken Noodles
Thick bee hoon and mee swimming in lemak curry with tender chicken, tau pok sponges soaking up every drop. Queue-certified.
Mango Sticky Rice
Ripe mango draped over warm glutinous rice, sweet coconut milk poured over. Tropical perfection in three ingredients.
Chai Tow Kway (Carrot Cake)
No carrot inside. Radish cake fried with egg + chai poh. Team White or Team Black?
Chicken Chop
Crispy chicken, black pepper or mushroom sauce, fries + coleslaw. Cai-fan-stall western.
Sushi
From supermarket rolls to omakase counter seats -- every grade of fish on vinegared rice is a good time.
Fruit Rojak
Prawn-paste, sugar, lime, you tiao, fruit + cucumber, peanuts. Sticky chaos, perfect chaos.
