Mr Avocado Exotic Fruit Juice

After all these years, I'm still patronizing this stall whenever I am in the area. I was not spared from the queue either but all were worthwhile for it left me a satisfying stomach after my cup of Avocado drink.

I'm still loving its rich and creamy consistent smooth drink without being too sweet. The fragrant and pleasant taste of Gulu Melaka within adds depth and flavour to the drink.

I have never failed to have a cup of my favourite juice every time during my trip to Alexandra Village(AV) Food Centre unless Mr Avocado Stall is closed.

Being their supporter since my school days, I had seen the price of Avocado juice increased from less than $2 to its current $2.50 per cup. When I'm being asked to recommend best Avocado Juice, what comes first in my mind was AV Food Centre's Mr Avocado.

Most of the times, there were queues in front of the shop. Beside selling the traditional varieties of fruit juices, they are also selling exotic juices like durian milk and sweetcorn milk shake. Initially I wanted to order the sweet corn milk but it was not available during my visit.


The secret recipe to their tasty Avocado Juice was never revealed. Jars of avocado juice was prepared way before hand and kept in the chiller. By nature, Avocado is rich in mono saturated fats, thus the drinks are seen creamy. It tastes sweet with Gula Melaka added and my many returns has not disappoint me thus far. Strongly recommended!

Lau Phua Chay Authentic Roasted Delicacies

The long queues during meal times are very significant for Lau Phua Chay even though their stall was tucked at the very far end corner of Alexandra Village Hawker Centre. With media articles and programs, they are quite well known for their Authentic Roasted Delicacies.

A walk through the hawker centre, you will notice stacks of emptied dark green dishes lying around on the hawker's tables. Their business is so good that even cleaners have a hard time to catch up with the number of dishes distributed.

Roasted Meat and Char Siew Rice - $3.50
 We had the Char Siew and Roasted Meat Rice. The gravy that Lau Phua Chay used on their roasted meat is always as delicious and unique. When they had them scooped over the rice, it had turned our rice from the pearl white into black. It may look unsightly but do not judge the cover of a book, it tasted better that what we had thought.

The usual gravy are either the thicker kinds in gluey form or watery base in a smooth texture. However, if you notice theirs, there is a stark difference, fragrant and some residue within. Char Siew was well barbequed, letting out the smokey flavours in its caramelized form retaining its juice and tenderness. Savoury! Likewise for roasted meat, its cripsy and yummy!

Yummy!

The bowl of soup that comes along in the meal had to be mentioned as well. Soup was clear with sweetness and shreds of meat within. Simple yet addictive!

Being one of their repeated patrons, I'm quite happy with their food. Perhaps they can do a little improvements on their service attitude.
