The seafood served in this restaurant will be more to western style, with some fusion of local taste.
If you are 1st time visiting this restaurant, you must try their grill crab.
You can choose either to cook with or without spicy.
For spicy grill crab, sambal chili is used, and it provides mild burning sensation, match well with the crab. The crab is fresh, served with grill corn, potatoes and some salads.

Next, this is a must-try signature dish in this restaurant. There are not many restaurants in JB served soft-shell crab burger. The fried soft-shell crab taste good, served with a layer of cheese.

Besides the crab meal, you may try their other seafood meal such as grill white tuna. The flesh of tuna is soft, with the fragrance of grill tuna. Black pepper sauce is served with the white tuna, together with grill corn , salad and chips.

For seafood lover, prawn is a must for a good meal. The texture is firm yet soft with a little bouncy. Personally, I like this king prawn, it is very fresh and the way the prawn grilled is just nice, not overcook.

We tried these white wine mussels too. For me, it's a bit spicy until I can't really taste the existence of white wine. As you can see from the photo below, the mussels are good in quality.

If you are not an alcoholic person, you may choose a cup of hot tea, match with your seafood. There are variety of tea for your choice , such as earl grey, jasmine and garden of fruit. Nice aroma surrounding as the hot tea served in front of us.

Asia is the largest and most populous continent in the world. There are 48 countries in Asia today, according to the United Nations.
There are many interesting countries in Asia that you must visit at least once in your lifetime.
Here I listed out some nice cities that you may start your discovery of Asia if you are planning to come for the first time.


1. Malacca, Malaysia
To suggest a place to travel in my country, I would always tell my friends start with Malacca, which located in the middle of the Peninsular Malaysia.
This historical city centre has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the best starting point for you to know more about Malaysia.

Next to Malaysia, Singapore is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world.
It's a small country, with full of excitement and things to discover.

My story with the cheapest Michelin 1 Star Chicken Rice @ Chinatown, Singapore.

12:00 Jia Ying 0 Comments

I was so surprised when I watched the Singapore TV news about the hawker center chicken rice had awarded Michelin 1 star.
I told my mum beside me, "Hey, we ate this chicken rice last year!!!"
During that time, this chicken rice stall is already well known in Chinatown.

When I have a daytrip to Singapore, most of the time I will pack some food from Malaysia.
One of my trip last year with my friends, we decided to have a rest and eating our lunch in Chinatown Complex..
This is my first time eating in Chinatown Complex.
I remember when I just step into the complex, there are so many food stalls, selling variety of foods. You can find anything you want.
I was walking around and thinking the food I would like to eat. ( It's easy to get lost as it's big and full of food stalls)
Even if you want to eat chicken rice, there are so many chicken rice stalls for you to choose, with different style and different price.
I decided to choose a stall which look popular, by searching the longest queue in front of the stall.
I found this chicken rice stall, which have the super long queue.
Wondering the reason, I start to follow the queue.
The first thing that amaze me about this chicken rice stall is the price.
S$ 2 for a plate of chicken rice!!! This is so far the cheapest meal I can find in the whole complex.
After the long wait, I got my chicken rice.
Well, to be honest, I don't find it very special or very tasty.
It's just a normal chicken rice, which using white rice with soy sauce instead of oily rice, don't have cucumbers or any vegetable.
Portion is good, chicken is tender, sauce is good, soup is not salty.
One of the weirdest thing is the beans- which normally don't serve with chicken rice.



After few months from the last trip, I have a daytrip to Singapore again. This time with my mum. I told my mum about this cheap S$2 chicken rice in Chinatown and she decided to try this chicken rice.
This is my second time having this chicken rice.
Still, the queue in front of the stall is the longest in Chinatown complex.
The chicken rice is still nice.
At least fill my stomach with full of satisfaction.
Overall, I tried this chicken rice twice before this chicken rice stall awarded with Michelin 1 star.



Well, many people may wonder how a hawker stall food can be awarded with Michelin 1 star.
If the locals introduce the food in Singapore to a foreigner, normally they may proud of their Hainainese Chicken Rice.
However, this 1 star Micelin Chicken rice is not even a Hainainse Chicken rice.
I would say this is one of the inspiration story to everyone who underestimate your potential ability. If you put in effort, you will receive your reward.
Michelin restaurant may sound like you can only find in those high class,expensive, fine dining restaurants.
Now, you can find in Singapore Hawker centre, which is affordable by everyone. You can taste the food with Michelin 1 star with affordable price.
