Cheap and Light



CHEAPER, CHEAPER! HEAR ALL ABOUT IT!

Looking for food thats not too expensive? Especially with prices of food even at coffee shops ranging from no less than $3, it is suprisingly delightful to be able to get hold of food below that high price. And no, im not talking about Chicken Rice. Along Tiong Bahru.. Lies Tiong Bahru Market. If you're looking for good, not as pricey food, this is the place to go.
Introducing, what i had for a hearty dinner.
Hawker Centre Yong Tau Foo. A well stock of ingredients to choose from. As well as a favourable price. Going at 7 pieces for S$2.10. Not to mention, my 9 piece + noodle meal cost a mere $3.20. At most food courts, a min. of 7 pieces would cost S$3.50 to S$4. Of course, this being at a hawker centre, would naturally be cheaper. But looking at the range of ingredients, and the excellent soup stock, i'd say its worth all its S$2.10.

Following, Char Siew Rice for S$2.50. Convinced yet? The absolute cheap and good char siew rice. Recommendation from my dad. The chilli is absolutely fantastic, and the rice is not too dry; as some char siew rice dishes tend to be.
