Traditional Roti Bakar with Hot Spring Egg 4.2/5

I was delighted to find our beloved breakfast selections among the buffet spread. One of them is the Traditional Roti Bakar with Hot Spring Egg. Crispy toasts with sweet kaya spread, plus soft boiled egg, this indeed is something that is close to our heart. You can even order a cup of Teh Tarik to complete your breakfast set.

Chwee Kueh, Soon Kueh, Peng Kueh 3/5

You can also find traditional Teochew classic such as Chwee Kueh, Soon Kueh and Peng Kueh. It brings back memories of the time I would have breakfast in the hawker centre with my grandparent. While I did not quite enjoyed the chwee kueh, the soon kueh and peng kueh are actually pretty decent considering this is a buffet.

Fried Carrot Cake 4/5

Fried Oyster 3.5/5

Talking about hawker centre, you can also find Fried Carrot Cake and Fried Oyster at one of the live stations. These are classic hawker dishes that you will find in almost hawker centres. This is definitely a buffet that that showcases a lot of the local food.

Bak Kut Teh 3.8/5

For those that enjoys a good of Bak Kut Teh, the version at Edge is an in between of the peppery and klang style. It is sweet and without the overpowering herbal taste with a tad of pepper.

Mee Siam, Nonya Chicken Curry, Achar, Chap Chye 4/5

A highlight at the refreshed Makan Makan lunch buffet is the "Little Nonya" spread by resident Nonya chef Nancy Teo. I started with some Kueh Pai Tee which whetted up the appetite. Many other delectable selections include Babi Assam, Mee Siam Goreng, Nonya Chicken Curry, Achar, Chap Chye etc, showcasing the Malayan Straits cuisine.

KL Tai Lok Mee 4.2/5

From the noodle station, we can savour dishes such as Rickshaw Noodle and KL Tai Lok Mee prepared a la minute by the chef at the live station. You will need to try these noodle dishes as they are not readily available elsewhere in Singapore.

Curry Fish Head 4.5/5

One of my favourite item is the Curry Fish Head. I am actually quite surprised to find it among the spread. I could not help going over to the Mamak Stall section to grab some naan and prata to soak up the delicious curry gravy.

Lastly do save some stomach space for the dessert. There are a variety of local treats such as Gula Melaka Sago Mousse, Chendol Panna Cotta, Ice Kachang, Durian Pengat, Durian Puff and a selection of local kuehs. There are even hot local desserts such as Bubur Cha Cha and Pulat Hitam. The dessert selection section is basically a feast by itself.

Zhong Guo Jie Re Shi (Rickshaw Noodles) @ Maxwell Food Centre - Rickshaw Noodles At Only $1

IMG_4046ed

It is almost impossible to find Rickshaw Noodles in Singapore anymore, a dish that is dated back to the early days of Singapore. Fortunately enough, 70 years old Madam Soh Pho Tee of Zhong Guo Jie Re Shi (Rickshaw Noodles) is still selling the heritage dish at her food stall at Maxwell Food Centre. The stall is first started by Madam Soh Pho Tee's mother back in 1943. This means the stall has a history of 73 years!

Rickshaw Noodles 3/5

Madam Soh has recently raised the price of the Rickshaw Noodles from 80 cents to $1, due to increasing foodo cost. For a dollar, you get a bowl of piping hot yellow noodle that comes with dried shrimps and some sliver of greens and carrots, topped with fried shallots.

Mee Sua 3/5

Besides the rickshaw noodles, the stall also sells Mee Sua, Fried Beehoon and Fried Kway Teow. All of these at only $1 too. The bowl of Mee Sua comes with pieces of mushroom, chicken and topped with fried shallot.

Ngoh Hiang 3/5

To complete your meal, you may want to pick from the array of Ngoh Hiang. I picked 5 items and it only cost me $1.90. Imagine my meal only worked out to be only $3.90!
