Enjoy Eating House and Bar

Enjoy Eating House was started in 2018 as a small eating house in Jalan Besar founded by two childhood friends, James and Joel.

Besides the hard copy of the menu, you can order the food via their app, by scanning the QR Code provided.

Menu

A retro interior decor is colourful with 1990s vibes. Look around in the Eating House and feel nostalgic with some of the familiar items.

Dining Environment

Their first dish impressed me. The pillowy soft Pau was served with a small plate of pulled pork with a house-smoked thick-cut kurobuta pork belly. It was served with honey mustard, homemade slaw and their house garlic chilli.

King Kong Bak Pau - $24

My King Kong Bak Pau with condiments

To be honest, I'm a fan of such a traditional dish and not many places sell this. There are 2 sizes available on their menu. The "Te Kah" which is known as Pig Trotter is exceptionally nice and on top of that, the Bee Hoon is very flavourful and soaked up with braised flavours. This secret recipe is passed down from Chef Joel's beloved Grandma. 

Grandma's Te Kah Bee Hoon - $17 (Small)

The name of the dish spurs interest to curious diners like me. Its wok hei-infused and strong flavours make such a simple dish so delicious. Loves the use of garlic with fish sauce and sugar with the cabbages.

Ugly Cabbage in Fish Sauce - $16

A plate of Har Jeong Kai Wings is good for sharing but a bit too much for 2 pax after all the dishes we ordered. This all-time Zi Char Classic was packed full of fragrance in its crispy fried exteriors. The fresh mid joints were very well marinated with fermented shrimp paste.

Har Jeong Kai Wings - $16

The meal ends with this special dessert on the menu. It is an Italian twist on a classic Singaporean dessert. The Pandan Noodles decked up with fragrant gula Melaka with sweet coconut cream pudding.

Chendol Panna Cotta - $8

Enjoy Eating House and Bar is worth visit with friends or family. Most of the dishes we had were very well executed with some twist in our local dishes. Pricing maybe a little steep but for the quality, worth splurging a little and pampering ourselves at times.

Ishiro (One Holland Village)

Congratulations on Ishiro opening another Outlet in One Holland Village (OHV). OHV is a pet friendly mall with pet lifts and water cooler. I love the concept of Ishiro, selling Japanese Rice Bowls in fast food style, serving quick and hearty donburi with chicken, beef, pork and unagi.

The interior was nicely furnished and seats were rather limited.

With the shortages of manpower in the F&B Industries, these self-service ordering machines had been seen as very helpful during ordering.

Tuck Kee Son 德记仔 (Yishun) [Media Invite]

Tuck Kee Son has recently moved their stall from Jalan Bukit Merah to Yishun Get Together Coffeeshop 欢聚一堂. They are also expanding their regular noodles selections to Seafood, Meat and veggie delights!

Stall of Tuck Kee Son

Cze Char

"Yu Kong Hor" or better known as Moonlight Hor Fun is one of the recommended dishes from Tuck Kee Son. It got its name partly due to the raw egg that was cracked over the hot noodles, creating a silky and rich texture when mixed. The plate of Hor Fun was sweet and savoury packed with smoky tastes with hints of “Wok Hei”. Pork slices, powdered intestines and vegetables together with pork lard cubes enhanced the taste of the bland noodles taste.

On a side note, their Hor Fun is imported from Ipoh has they are more silky in texture and contain more rice flour.

Yu Kong Hor 月光河 - $6.30 / $9.30

The pal who had eaten Tuck Kee Son's Hokkien Fried Bee Hoon in their Bukit Merah Outlet was singing praises about this. The crackling fresh lard was hard to skip. The plate was well fried with some parts turned crispy for the Bee Hoon, cradling the aromatic "Wok Hei" flavours. Vegetables, prawns and lean meat were part of the dish's ingredients.

Hokkien Fried Bee Hoon 福建炒米粉 - $5.80 / $8.80

The dish “Dai Loke Mee” is a popular Malaysian dish. The thick noodles were cooked in sweet dark soy sauce coupled with vegetables, pork lards, and pork slices.

Dai Loke Mee 大碌面 - $5.80 / $8.80

Steamed Fish tasted best and fresh in the tangy sweet sourish Assam style. 

Ipoh Steamed Tilapia 怡宝蒸山水金凤 

A less often dish that we will see from the Cze Char Menu but Tuck Kee Son has it all! This light and protein-packed meal tasted best with egg yolk and vinegar. 

Crab Meat Stir Fry Egg Whites 蟹肉赛螃蟹 - $20 / 30 /40

These prawn balls were coated in its crispy batter and deep fried. Combining these succulent prawn balls with the strong pungent & spicy Japanese Dressing creates a unique flavour to the dish. Black Sesame was sprinkled on the prawns too, giving it a better presentation.

Wasabi Shrimp Ball 芥末虾球 - $20/30/40

The Big Prawn Hor Fun had kind of impressed me. The generous servings of large battered prawns and the savoury and luscious gravy of the yummy Hor Fun were the best combination. What an indulgence I thought with fragrant pork lards and egg yolk too.

Big Prawn Hor Fun 大虾河粉皇 - $9.80 / $13.80

The chicken was deep-fried and well-coated in its sauce. 

General Tso's Chicken 左宗棠鸡 - $16 / 25 / 32

The Golden Pumpkin sauce was savoury and creamy topping to the fresh crustaceans. They added a tad of saltiness to the natural sweetness of the crab meat.

Alaska King Crab Pumpkin Superior Stock 阿拉斯加帝王蟹配金瓜上汤 - $48

The chilli sauce with Alaksa Crab was "da bomb". The Sauce strikes a very good balance between savoury sweetness and spiciness. The smooth and delicious sauce was to died for. Comparing the Pumpkin Sauce and this. I would definitely prefer this.

Alaska King Crab Chili Sauce 阿拉斯加帝王蟹配辣椒酱 - $48

Tuck Kee Son offers a good spread of Cze Char, different from the mainstream of our local coffeeshop Cze Char as they offer interesting Malaysian dishes.

Let's start the culinary journey with Taiwan's most iconic flavours. The braised pork is rich and succulent. The process of simmering the braised pork belly over low heat in the blend of soy sauce and spices for hours had perfect the texture, resulting to the melt in the mouth profile.

Washing down our food with the Pure Tea Series' Assam Black Tea and QQ Passion Fruit Tea. With a choice of their sugar level, the sweetness definitely tailored to us. Assam Black Tea carried a light tea fragrance and was refreshing while the QQ Passion Fruit Tea has Jelly as well as Pearl, thus the given name of the tea.

Assam Black Tea & QQ Passion Fruit Tea - $3, $4
