Singapore｜So Good Char Chan Tang

Food is amazing, quite near to authentic Hong Kong style. Tips: (1) "reserved" table (you know, put your stuff on top....) (2) queue for self ordering (3) sit back and wait for number beeper to call and collect your food All cutlery, sources is at one side, self service. Some food might serve later, just be patient. Everyone is helpful enough to assist you. Will be back!!

I was here when my loved ones had a serious craving for Hong Kong styled food. On a whim, we drove down to Sin Ming Lane's So Good Cha Chan Tang. Oh BOY! The food was so good it heralded memories back when I visited the famous Honolulu Cafe at Wan Chai, Hong Kong. I would recommend these lovely food items: 1. Char siew bao. The filling in there is just different. It's less sweet and more savoury compared with the typical Singapore variant. 2. Chee cheong fun (or 街边猪肠粉). The drizzle of sauce and peanut butter makes this dish a rich, thick carbohydrate variety. Be warned though: the flavour fatigue on this one wears on you very quickly. It's better to eat this with another person. 3. Flaky char siew puff (or 叉烧酥). The distinctive is in its buttery skin. 4. Yuan yang. There's something extra smooth about this concoction which makes it different from the usual Toastbox or Ya Kun variant.

Food is relatively affordable for restaurant quality. Portions slightly smaller than expected. There were no problems with the service. Overall pretty good.
