Mr Wong's Seremban Beef Noodles @ Marine Parade Central Market and Food Centre

The Beef Noodle Soup at Mr Wong's Seremban Beef Noodles stall at Marine Parade Central Food Centre is unique and nice. The stall sells both the dry and soup version of the beef noodles. Each bowl costs $3.50 or  $4.50.

The first unique thing is the chilli sauce. The appearance was orange rather than red and it had a more garlic taste to it.

Chilli and Chinchalok

The Beef Noodle Soup used the thinner flat rice noodles (kway teow). The soup tasted sweeter than others and it was very tasty and good.

VeganBurg @ Jalan Eunos

Think Fast Food is junk food? Think again. This phrase is painted on the wall of the new concept fast food restaurant, VeganBurg at Jalan Eunos. Yes they are selling vegetarian burgers, buns made from wholemeal organic grains and patties that are free of gluten and genetically modified organism.


Currently, VeganBurg offers 5 different type of burgers namely, Cracked Pepper Mayo, Hawaiian Pineapple, Smoky BBQ, Char-Grilled Satay and Tangy Tartar which were designed to provide different nutrients.

Sample of the menu


I ordered the Cracked Pepper Mayo meal (which contains Omega 3, Omega 6, Zinc) while my partner ordered the Smoky BBQ meal (which contains Beta-Carotene). The meal also included fries and juice. Surprisingly, the burgers tasted very yummy. It was way beyond my expectation for a vegetarian burger. The cracked pepper mayo patty had a nice soya flavour while the smoky BBQ patty had a mushroomy flavour. Being a meat person, I was worried that I may not have the "filling" satisfaction but I was wrong. I felt full and satisfied after the meal.

There is another unique concept at VeganBurg. They used Mesh Tin to serve their burgers. I have taken a picture of it after finishing my burgers and removing the paper

The Garden Slug @ Lorong L Telok Kurau

After hearing a fair bit about this eatery place, I took the opportunity to visit this place by suggesting to my colleague for her farewell dinner. It is not easy to locate this place as it is not on the main road. After you alight at the bus stop, you need to walk further down and turn into the side road Lorong L Telok Kurau to locate it. Once you see a lot of pet shops, you are at the right place.

We ordered the Wasuga Chicken Wing for appetizer. Initially I thought it was some Japanese marinated chicken wings. I only realized it meant "Wa Su Ga" (in dialect) meaning "I like" Chicken Wing after doing some research on their menu.

For soup, we had the Old Fashion Chicken Broth in a bowl. It was an interesting, light and refreshing soup boiled with melon, dried scallop and bits of rice.

For the main, we had Bangers & Mash and Meatball Melt to share. The sausage and mashed potatoes were nice. We enjoyed the additional texture of the mashed potatoes served with potato skins.

The Meatball Melt was Italian meatball (beef + pork) topped with marinara sauce and melted cheese. It was served in a big bowl and it can be quite messy to eat. One of us don't enjoy the taste of the meatball but I find it ok.

The overall experience was comfortable home cooked food. Don't expect high end restaurant standards here. One suggestion for the restaurant is to reduce the portion of their serving and thus reduce the price further. All of us find that the portion were really too big.

To get here, take bus 155 from Eunos MRT (along Sims Avenue not in the bus terminal). Alight at the 4th stop after Eunos MRT. Cross the street, turn left and walk towards Lorong L Telok Kurau.
