So much for starting the year right and eating right, I guess the diet always starts tomorrow. So to kick off the year and to grease up my stomach for healthier things to come, we went out for an indulgent lunch. It didn’t take lobster, foie gras, oysters, peking duck or other fancy expensive things that would increase your cholesterol by a few points, but just good old ‘crunchies’ as a friend terms it. This might just be the cheaper alternative to foie gras, deep fried intestines. Sure it isn’t as fancy, but its got plenty of things in common, its crunchy on the outside and pure indulgence on the outside, soft and oily that it just melts in your mouth. It was so good and sinful that I could only put one piece in my mouth without feeling that I was going to die of a heart attack after lunch.
Deep Fried Intestines
We went out for a kuay chap* lunch. This stall has it all. I’m not sure if makansutra has rated this place, but if it hasn’t, it needs to make its way down to this stall. It has got everything you want, if it is in the pig or duck, they’ve probably have it here – intestines, heart, tongue, stomach lining, heart and other offal delights. Other normal things that they have are bean curd, duck meat, salted vegetable and tau pok. You can either have rice or kuay chap. The kuay chap here is nice, the sauce looks nice and thick rather then the runny watery ones you get else where and the rice comes with little pieces of yam in it. Lunch for 4 of us came up to a total of S$30 for a platter of duck meat, offal and tofu, a plate of salted vegetable and a serving of rice/kuay chap per person. What I also liked about this place is that on their platters, they not only give you sliced cucumber but also sliced pineapple which is thing to pop into your mouth in between the little indulgent pieces. Come here, but leave your diet plan at home.
*Kuay chap is actually rice flake noodles that look like tortilla chips but are usually used for stir fries or soups. The Kuay chap is thus usually served in a soy sauce flavoured broth and eaten with condiments.

Hey! You didn't call us to join in! Eew, it sounds terribly sinful though. Need to go for a LONG jog to make up for it! -Amanduh

After we ordered the food, we waited for almost an hour without being served with any food. The time is about 8pm. Apparently a few other tables has already had their food served completely. I actually approached the waiteress with the request to provide us with the Yang Chao Fried Rice first since my two children have been waiting for the food. However to my observation, she did not take any action. I again approach the counter and enquire for the status of my order. To my surprise, none of my ordered food are cooked yet. It makes me very disappointed and I made the decision to cancel all orders and go to the other hawker center for my family dinner... Such a disappointing experience. If you still insist want to go to this restaurant, please ask the waitress on how long should you wait for it before ordering.
