Huong Viet @ Joo Chiat Rd (Closed)

I walked pass Huong Viet many times and thought that I should give it a chance some day, which was today. I ordered Pho Tai (Medium-rare Beef Kway Teoh Soup) and House brand Viet coffee, both were good.
The pho was served in 3 minutes after I placed order, broth was very tasty, a bit sweet, beef came with a beautiful pink color, meat was tender and soft.

 Pho Tai (Medium-rare Beef Kway Teoh Soup), S$7.50 (4.2/5)

Chezcake Bistro @ Joo Chiat Rd

Chezcake & Bistro is a homely and cozy cafe located on Joo Chiat Road. Nice ambiance to chill and spend a lazy afternoon. No GST but 10% service charge applies for dine-in. Service was good, but only 1 person serving 4 tables when I was there this afternoon.
I tried their Rum & Raisin Cheesecake. Rum was evident, amount of raisins were just nice. However, the texture of the cake was like steamed egg, wasn’t creamy and dense enough for a cheese cake.

Rum & Raisin Cheesecake, $6.90, (3/5)

Tau Kwa Pau 豆干包 @ Dunman Food Centre

I saw a stall @ Dunman Food Centre L2 that sells only Tau Kwa Pau, and thought that I should give it a try.
