ieat writes: Minced meat with Pickled Radish - Lunch Buffet $9.90 nettThe time has come at last to tell you about Teochew Muay. This restaurant is opened by my good friend SCS Butter who is one of the few makan kakis I knew before I started blogging.  SCS Butter is a foodie (I think you can tell from his photo) and has been the source of many great recommendations on this blog.  The reason I have not told you about his restaurant earlier is because we needed some time to iron out some details of the restaurant. I ...

ieat writes: Wanton Mee: $3So here's what you missed:  There was once a grandfather who gave his Wonton Mdee stall to his two grandsons.  They both shared it by taking weekly turns to run the stall.  This went on for a while until the elder brother decided to open a 24 hour stall right next to the old stall.  Now the older brother operates the 24 hour stall, but still retains his alternate weekly routine at the old stall.  The older brother then starts making his noodles in ...

ieat writes: Oxtail Devil's Curry $18.80You probably know a few Eurasians right?  You know, they are the ones with surnames like Pereira, Gomes, De Silva, Olivero, Xavier etc.  You hear many of them on radio, especially if you tune into 938live.  The Eurasians control the radio waves of Singapore and many of them are also on TV.Actually, the very first person I met was a Eurasian.  He was none other than the late Benjamin Sheares, 2nd President of Singapore.  Of course when I first met him, he was my mother's obstetrician and he wasn't the ...

ieat writes: The Pandan Chiffon CakeRemember I was telling you about how I learnt the valuable lesson about persistence from watching my Mom try again and again to perfect her Pandan Chiffon Cake? Well, since I got my new KitchenAid to play with, I decided to re-enact the Pandan Chiffon experience for myself.  I thought it should be quite a simple thing to do but little did I know that it would take me quite a number of bakes before I finally felt ready to write this post.This post is the result ...

ieat writes: Chirashi Sushi $150My wife would be pleasantly surprised, and my mom who look to heaven with thanksgiving if they found out that I actually ate a bowl of rice with raw seafood on top!  You see, I grew up with seafood-phobia and it was not until I met my wife (girlfriend then) that her family introduced me to seafood.  There was a stage in my life where I would never touch anything that swims.  But slowly that all changed.  Wives do have a way of transforming their husbands as you well know, so I became more open ...

ieat writes: Shoyu Ramen $11You know that I have a soft spot for hawkers uncles and aunties with lots of passion about their food right?  Well, when it comes to Ramen, there are very few places where you would find a Ramen uncle who is so passionate about Ramen that he would actually make his own noodles and would personally supervise the bowls of Ramen that are being prepared in his kitchen.Tajima-san - my Ramen ...

ieat writes: In this final episode of our egg series, we look at the 62 degree egg which is very similar or at least based on the same principles as the Onsen Tamago or Japanese hot spring eggs.  It is amazing how different the egg is when you cook it at a different temperature.  Tim also shows us how to make some delicious Salmon Croutes to go with the egg.  It's not easy to control the temperature but if you persist, you will be rewarded with an egg with amazing texture.Click here to view the rest of our cooking videos.ieatishootipost.sg One man's attempt ...

ieat writes: Tom Yum Goong $6.90 nettHere's a brief intermission before I resume my Ramen Rampage.  Phew!I must admit that I found it hard to believe when Holydrummer told me how he found this bar that sold the best Thai food he has eaten since his trip to Bangkok.  I have lived in Bangkok for two years in early 2000 and I have been off Thai food since I got back because I have not found a Thai eatery that would remind me of the stuff I used to eat in any of the non-descript hole-in-the-wall eateries ...
