East Coast Lagoon Food Village - Hwa Kee Barbeque Pork Noodle

East Coast Lagoon Food Village - Hwa Kee Barbeque Pork Noodle
1220 East Coast Parkway 468960
 
 
Normally when I am there in East Coast Park, I will come over here to have the Wanton Mee. Well, do expect to queue during lunch and dinner hours. It's pretty fast moving though.


The noodles are done in a al-dente way unlike some places where they did cooked it until it's pretty soggy. The best will be the BBQ pork also known as Char Siew. It's roasted or bbq until the sides of the meat are slightly charred but not overly charred.
 
Ok just the sight of the photos make me hungry now!!!
If you are a big eater, I would suggest you get the bigger portion as the smaller one is really small. Plus for the bigger portion, the char siew are also given more :D
 
 
Overall
                                                                  Ambiance      3.5/5
                                                                  Food              3.5/5
                                                                  Money              3/5
 
No high chairs available for kids but there are mini playground like swings nearby the food village.


 


East Coast Lagoon Food Village - Roxy Laksa & Prawns Noodles Review

Roxy Laksa & Prawns Noodle
Eating in East Coast Lagoon Food Village can be a hit or a miss. We decided to try out the Roxy Laksa on of the days while hanging out at East Coast Park.
 

 
For your information, those who loved cockles you can just give this a miss as they do not serve their Laksa with cockles. I asked for more soup as usual and was rudely turned down by the auntie. I think I paid like $4 or $5 for this bowl of Laksa with no cockles and no extra soup. :(
 
 
Still, we wanna try this without any prejudice but sadly the soup isn't as great as the Katong Laksa we had before. Soup is abit bland, prawns are pretty fresh though.
 
We did'nt try the Prawn Noodles though. Perhaps you can leave us some comments if you tried it and you can share with us how it fare. :)
 
But then again, I doubt I will try this again :P not for the price nor the quality of Laksa served. Unless you are craving badly for Laksa then you may give this a try.

Overall

                                                                    Food                  2/5

East Coast Lagoon Food Village - Zuo Ji Duck Rice

East Coast Park - One of the places that I love to go during the weekends to relax and indulge myself in the foods offered at the nearby food village.
  


 

For those who have not been to Singapore but plans to do so, I would recommend you guys to come down for a stroll by the lovely beach and then proceed to the food village for some Singapore style food.
  

 
Food is always better when there are beautiful sand and sea. For those years that I was absent in Singapore, East Coast Park is one of the places that I will check out whenever I am back.

 
Zuo Ji Duck Rice . Duck Porridge
Braised Duck Rice
 
 
Decided to give this stall a try since it had a long queue to it. :P Well, normally if there is a queue it's either cheap or it's nice. Waited for slightly more than 30mins before we can make our order. 
  

 
We ordered the duck porridge, it's only average tasting.
Not worth the long wait.
 
The duck rice was too hard even with that amount of gravy, rice is too hard at least for me. The duck meat itself is only average nothing much to rave about. They also braised other stuffs like pig's ear which was surprising to me though as I haven't seen stalls selling braised pig's ear for quite a long while since I was back from China. Sadly, it was tough and not braised long enough. The only consolation comes from the chili. But then again, I doubt I will patronise this stall again even for the chili.

Personally went to this place to try out their prawn noodles as I was craving for some prawn noodles. Pretty hard to get really nice prawn noodles in Woodlands.
 
The first time I went, we ordered the premium crayfish prawn noodles($10.90) which has prawns and crayfish in it. It was great especially the broth. But it might be too salty for some as I do find it slightly salty.


Below is the second dish we ordered. It's the premium seafood fried kway tiao($10.90). Lots of seafood and bean sprouts. It's really good for those who favor more ingredients than kway tiao itself.


Since there is only two of us, we are unable to order alot so we decided to come again the next time round.
