Burger Shack @ Bukit Timah

There are more and more burger places in Singapore. One of them is Burger Shack which is opened by Island Creamery just a few steps away. Food is ordered at the counter, paid and wait for your number to be called over the PA system when it is ready. I also notice the place has a lot of students, probably from the nearby schools.



My friend had the Grilled Chicken burger while I have the Mushroom Swiss burger. We also ordered nacho fries to share. The nacho fries was surprisingly quite good. We enjoyed it very much. For the burgers, they were nice but not great. My friend does not like the bun and I find the price a bit expensive.

No Name Hainanese Curry Rice @ Beo Crescent

During my previous visits to Beo Crescent Food Centre, I have always noticed the long queue outside this no name stall selling Hainanese Curry Rice in a run down coffeeshop. I finally found the time to check out the place and I was not disappointed.

There was not much varieties left when I reached the stall. The pork chops were unique, crispy and very good. Not the norm I have eaten at other Hainanese Curry Rice stall. The rest of the dishes which were commonly found at other Hainanese Curry Rice stall were nice too. Over all it was a satisfying and value for money lunch.
