“ 2 coffee shops next to each other... this stall 好友记is supposed to serve charcoal grilled meat but cannot taste the smokey barbecue flavour. Duck meat is cold and a bit tough. The sauce is too sweet. the soup is at least warm and taste good. ”
“ Delicious food served here in this stall! Love their sambal! Worth the money. ”
“ As with this Hainan Fen $5 but extremely fragrant. I’d recommend . At the end of the meal, I thought to myself that perhaps the west side of Singapore is a wonderful place to be as well. I would encourage all you westies to climb out of bed earlier to try this! It’s really a next-level kind. ”
“ 1 August 2026- Visited here for the Zheng Wei Roasted Duck. We ordered quite many parts of the duck organs and Kway chap, the portions are really huge and cost barely over $30. In the usual same portion would cost us around $50 in the more popular stores. Despite big portions, the quality didn’t take a discount, it was really above average or maybe good. Will return for sure! Bonusly ordered a Rojak there. Ordered a fruit rojak and there isn’t much youtiao, should have went for full youtiao very average rojak. Aunty will call every male customers “uncle” ”
“ Hao You Ji Charcoal Roasted, located inside this FoodHub, has been a favorite of mine for many visits. Their roasted char siew boasts a delicious charcoal-grilled flavor, and the other roasted meats are also tasty. Despite the rising food prices, this stall still offers affordable meals, with Shredded Chicken Kway Teow at S$2.50 and Chicken Rice at S$3.00 per plate. Kudos to this stall for showing compassion through their pricing! ”
