Bailey & Patch Pet Cafe @ Enabling Village - A Pet Cafe, Pet Grooming Centre, and Training Ground for Special Needs and Disabilities

Bailey & Patch Pet Cafe is more than just a café tucked away in a cosy corner. It's a meaningful initiative that blends heart, hospitality, and hearty fare. As Singapore's first pet café and grooming centre that also serves as a training ground for individuals with special needs and disabilities, the space is as inclusive as it is inviting. Diners can expect a menu of affordable, comforting Asian favourites, with mains starting from $7.80 and appetisers from $3.80. Best of all, your furry companions are welcome to join, with fresh pet food available on-site.

Fried Prawn Paste Chicken Wings 4/5

The Fried Prawn Paste Chicken Wings ($6.80 for 5pc) are a crowd-pleaser. Deep-fried to a perfect golden crisp, each wing packs a punch of umami-rich prawn paste flavour. Comparable to the standard you'd expect at a solid zi char stall, they're delightfully addictive and well-executed.

Nasi Lemak with Ayam Berempah 3.8/5

A solid choice for those craving the familiar, the Nasi Lemak with Ayam Berempah ($10.80) comes with all the essentials comprising fragrant coconut rice, crunchy ikan bilis, peanuts, a fried egg, and most importantly, a piece of spiced, tender ayam berempah that delivers on both aroma and flavour. The menu allows customisation with other protein options such as curry chicken, karaage, pork chop, luncheon meat, or tempura prawn, catering to every palate.

Fried Rice with Black Pepper Roasted Chicken 4/5

The Fried Rice with Black Pepper Roasted Chicken ($11.80) hits the mark for a simple yet satisfying meal. The roasted chicken is tender, nicely seasoned, and pairs well with the egg fried rice. Like the nasi lemak, diners have the flexibility to swap proteins, from salted egg karaage to prawns or mushrooms, making it a customisable comfort dish.

Tornado Egg Rice with Mushroom Treasure 3.8/5

The Tornado Egg Rice with Mushroom Treasure ($8.80) features fluffy rice blanketed by a soft, ribbon-like omelette. Its earthy mushroom sauce seeps into every bite, creating a savoury and creamy finish. Again, you can pick your preferred protein, which adds to the dish's appeal for return visits.

Claypot Sesame Oil Chicken 4/5

A standout on the menu, the Claypot Sesame Oil Chicken ($12.80) is bold and aromatic. The rich sauce is infused with sesame oil, coating tender chunks of chicken that absorb all that savoury goodness. Served bubbling in a claypot, it's a dish best enjoyed hot and steaming.

Golden Seafood Soup 4.2/5

Looking for something comforting? The Golden Seafood Soup ($11.80) delivers. A medley of seafood ingredients is served in a robust, savoury broth that's hearty and full of flavour, perfect for a rainy day or when you just need a bowl of slurping satisfaction.

Signature Mee Goreng 4/5

The Signature Mee Goreng ($8.80) is another winning dish. Wok-fried to perfection, the springy noodles are coated in a sweet, tangy sauce that clings to every strand. A runny egg is tossed in at the end, giving the dish an extra layer of richness and depth.

Bailey & Patch is more than just a café. It's a heart-led haven where people and pets dine together in a warm, inclusive environment. The menu doesn't try to be fancy but delivers well-executed, nostalgic flavours at accessible prices. Whether you're popping by with your pup for a casual meal or supporting the café's meaningful mission, it's definitely worth a visit.

Note: This is an invited tasting.

Ah Ching Claypot Delights @ Midview City (Sin Ming) - Former Head Chef Of Geylang Claypot Rice Is Back Selling His Famous Claypot Rice

I first got to know Ah Ching when he was at East Village. He was the former Head Chef at Geylang Claypot Rice before venturing on its own. Ah Ching had gone missing for a while when he left the food establishment at East Village. He has opened a new stall - Ah Ching Claypot Delights, selling his signature claypot rice at Midview City.

Charcoal Claypot Rice 4.2/5

Ah Ching still cooks his Claypot Rice ($8/ $20) over charcoal fire from scratch using old rice grains. It takes about 20 minutes for him to cook each claypot. Ah Ching will constantly tilt the claypot at a different angle over the fire so that the rice is evenly cooked and not burnt. Add dark sauce to the rice to eat and give it a good toss. Besides the fragrant rice, Ah Ching makes an effort to marinate the chunky and tender chicken pieces too. The addition of salted fish and Chinese sausages accentuated the taste profile and aroma.

Claypot Wine Chicken Soup 3.8/5

I usually like to have my claypot rice with a bowl of soup, so we had the Claypot Wine Chicken Soup ($10). It is a comforting and hearty bowl of soup with a distinct aroma from the Chinese yellow wine. While the accompanying chicken pieces are tender, I wish for more ingredients.

Claypot Chicken in Sesame Oil 4.2/5

Lastly, we complete our meal with the Claypot Chicken in Sesame Oil ($8). I really find Ah Ching knows how to handle his chicken. They are well-marinated and extremely tender, just like the other two claypot dishes. Cooking the chicken in sesame oil gives the poultry a delicious lift in enjoyment.

Tong Sheng Bak Kut Teh (同勝肉骨茶) @ Pandan Gardens - New JB-style Bak Kut Teh In The West

Newly opened in the quiet neighbourhood of Pandan Gardens is Tong Sheng Bak Kut Teh (同勝肉骨茶) serving JB style Bak Kut Teh. Unlike the peppery local style, this is the herbal type with subtle herbal bittersweetness served in claypot.

Herbal Bak Kut Teh Soup 3.5/5

The Herbal Bak Kut Teh Soup comes in three sizes ($6.50/ $13/ $26). In the piping hot claypot, diners can find pork ribs, pig intestines, pig liver, pork belly, meatball, mushrooms and beancurd skin. I even order a bowl of youtiao to soak up the soup.

I have to say the version here is on the mild side. You don't get that strong herbal taste. I find the soy sauce flavour comes through more. I ordered the medium size claypot, and there were only four small pork ribs. If you are a big eater, you may need to add more items with additional cost.

Sesame Oil Chicken 4.5/5

We also ordered the Sesame Oil Chicken ($7.50) which is an excellent choice. The chicken is super tender complemented by the fragrant sesame oil.

Tong Sheng Bak Kut Teh is a welcoming addition in the West with its JB-style herbal bak kut teh. I don't mind going back again for the bak kut teh on a rainy and cold day.
