Yakiniku Like from Tokyo, Japan, which opened its first outlet in Paya Lebar Quarter, Singapore, in February 2020, celebrates its 2nd anniversary. To commemorate the occasion, the restaurant has launched a limited-time promotion.

Hokkaido Snow Pork Platter

For a limited period, from 16 February to 30 April 2022, customers can look forward to savouring the Hokkaido Snow Pork Platter ($15.80 A La Carte/ $17.80 Set Meal). Known as the pork of dreams, the pork impresses with immaculate marbling, melt-in-the-mouth texture and delicate sweetness. The platter comprises 150 grams of Hokkaido pork collar, belly and tontoro (jowl). The set meal comes with a side of rice, seaweed soup, kimchi, or salad to complete the set.

Mega Meat Set

Not to be missed is the Mega Meat Set ($19.80) which you can enjoy the best of all worlds, consisting of Karubi 200g, Pork Belly and Chicken 200g served with rice, soup and a choice of kimchi or salad. This special promotion is only available from 28 to 30 April 2022.

Nam Sing Hokkien Fried Mee @ Bukit Batok - Singapore's Traditional Delicacy That Falls Short Of My Expectation

Nam Sing Hokkien Fried Mee has been opening several stalls around the island in recent years with the latest outlet in the West. The stall is located at Gather Together Coffeeshop at block 177 Bukit Batok West Ave 8. 

Nam Sing Hokkien Fried Mee's original stall is at Old Airport Road, run by Mr Ng Hock Wah, who should be 74 years old this year. He learnt the art of cooking hokkien mee since 18 years old. He is a legend himself, cooking and mastering that only one dish for 57 years.

Fried Hokkien Mee 3/5

Traditional Fried Hokkien Mee comes with only chopped red chillis. However, to cater to the younger generation, the stall has introduced sambal to go with the noodle. I know there are split views of Nam Sing's hokkien mee among my foodie friends. Most of them does not like it. I have never tried it, so this will determine which side of the fence I stand on.

The plate of Fried Hokkien Mee comes in $5, $8 and $10. It is the dry version using thin vermicelli. It seems the ratio of beehoon is much more than the yellow noodle. I am probably used to eating hokkien mee that has a slurping texture. This version with a mouthful of thin beehoon is too dry for me. In addition, the prawn stock is almost undetectable. It is more like a plate of fried beehoon rather than fried hokkien mee. Now I understand why most of my food friends do not like it. I am not a fan of it too.
