Enjoy all the food below that I have try today at Food Republic !
Chinatown Tan's Tutu
What so special about Chinatown Tan's TuTu is that their purity of the wholegrain
rice grains to ensure that his cake is pure white ! The floor is sifted many times so that the cakes are truly "san" or light ! Finally the cake is filled and steamed before being served on a piece of fragrant pandan leaf. handcrafted from start to the end, this is truly a nostalgic snack that diners can't skip !
Rating : 5/5
I am totally in love with the coconuts TuTu ! After the first bite , you will want to eat it again
and again ! You should try it yourself , then you will know how i feel . For the Peanut TuTu,
i think is a bit too thick for me , but for those who are lover of peanut TuTu will definitely love
it a lot !
Sergeant Hainanese Chicken Rice
The chicken is steamed just enough so there is still a little pink remaining on the flesh near the bones . Polish off the dish with a special garlicky chili sauce, wash it down with clear chicken
broth and satisfaction is definitely guaranteed.
You can try out their specialties : Drumstick Rice, Thai Sauce Tofu, Chicken Curry Noodles, Lemon Chicken Rice, Sergeant Boneless Chicken !
Rating : 4/5
As you guys should know that i am a meat lover and everything i eat got to have meat
if not i will feel hungry very easily ! I am also a lover of chicken rice and I always love ordering
their chicken breast meat ! For this chicken rice , i love their chicken meat as it not oily
and everything is just right for me ! You guys should try out !
Chai's Orginial Sliced Fish Soup
Expect long queues throughout the day ( especially lunch time) if you wish to enjoy a taste of
Chai's Original Sliced Fish Soup ! What is so special about this fish soup that is the owner Peter Shih use 100% fish meat for his dried fish fish slices (no flour batter) and fries it at 400 degrees Celsius to ensure that the fish is not oily !
Rating : 4/5
I am not a lover of Fish Soup but i love eating fish alone itself ! When i get to taste their sliced Fish Soup , i was amazed by the soup and the taste of the fish , there is no strong smell of the fish and the soup taste light and is gentle to my stomach !

the hot one ! :)
