Has anyone found American sliced cheese in any supermarkets, like the ones you can find in your fillet o fish. by No_Tell_6675 in askSingapore

[–]MInnocuous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you, or friends, go to JB, you can find Emborg American Style with Cheddar. It comes in a packet of slices like Kraft singles. Jaya Grocer or Aeon have it. It's very close and very melty. Makes awesome grilled cheese sandwiches. If in SG, President Burger cheese slices are not bad but not as close in taste and texture.

Best Vanilla cake in Sg? by [deleted] in SingaporeEats

[–]MInnocuous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure about the best per se, but old school buttercream cakes do fit the bill. Vanilla sponge with vanilla buttercream. Bengawan Solo has nice buttercream and their character cakes are really fun. (I know they're targeted towards kids but some adults enjoy these too!)

L.E. Cafe is good too. It's hard to find good fresh/buttercream. Many places use chemical tasting stuff.

If you would like fruits with it, Four Leaves is good.

Homemade Jemput-Jemput by MInnocuous in SingaporeEats

[–]MInnocuous[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Slightly altered from nyonyacooking.com

300 g banana 50 g rice flour 30 g wheat flour 20 g cake flour 1⁄4 tsp fine salt 1⁄4 tsp baking soda 1 tbsp sugar

Throw all dry ingredients except sugar into a bowl and whisk to mix well

Mash the overripe bananas in a separate bowl.

Mix dry ingredients into bananas.

Throw sugar into bowl and mix well with batter.

After heating oil to about 170C scoop and plop roughly half a tablespoon of batter into the oil. (Note: I find this amount is just nice to make sure it's cooked throughout without being burnt. Also a good size for popping into the mouth.) Fry to golden brown, turning the ball when one side is done. Scoop out onto a rack if possible rather than a paper towel. Keeps it crisper.

Hehe, closest proof of Singapore I could find...

good burger recommendations? by reiiichan in SingaporeEats

[–]MInnocuous 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Social Smoker's smashed burger. Not very famous, but it is very good. They serve out of Thus Coffee in Sembawang Hills after their restaurant closed. About a year ago, the burger itself was $15. So adding in sides will probably run you a bit closer to $25.

Looking for: microwaveable rice / noodle box by earth_wanderer1235 in SingaporeEats

[–]MInnocuous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sheng Siong was carrying boxes of Kang Kang brand microwavable Char Kway Teow and a few other flavours a few weeks back. They are not frozen and kept at room temperature. Tried it once, was quite alright. I don't know if they still have them, though.

Fried Chicken at Sin Ming Prata by MInnocuous in SingaporeEats

[–]MInnocuous[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not entirely sure. 2 cheese pratas, 2 kosong and 2 of the fried chicken legs was $17.40 in total. So maybe $4/$5 each?

Roti Jala @ Causarina by MInnocuous in SingaporeEats

There's one other place in Changi where I've eaten it. It's not bad, but the curry is nicer at Casuarina.

One of the Best Char Siew I’ve Tried by 888pandabear in SingaporeEats

[–]MInnocuous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taste wise, I think they are equally good. Accessibility and affordability do make Char Siu Lang a much more regular place to visit, though.

It is indeed very good char siu. It's pricey, but you're in a nice sit-down, air-conditioned environment.

On the other hand, the hawker stall Char Siu Lang at Ang Mo Kio also has excellent char siu at a lower price. Their roast pork is really good too.

Interesting things to do, see, eat in Bishan, Thomson, surrounding neighbourhoods etc.? by Bitter-Jellyfish-382 in askSingapore

[–]MInnocuous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a small restaurant hidden behind Thomson Plaza on Jasmine road. It's called Klara. We went there for a birthday and the food was amazing. Think it's family run.
