Porkie Noodle @ Restoran Pomander

It's one of the restaurant I love to visit, unlike it's previous location, this new one mainly is an air-conditioned venue but the same stalls was there from ther previous location. I never really paid attention to the name of the restaurant (as you can read here) until recently.

Each time I go, the usual pork noodle would be ordered along with a small plate of Roast Pork. I feel that the Chicken Rice stall there was mainly there to compliment the Pork Noodle stall as I observed many orders placed with the young chap was mainly for the Char Siew or Roast Pork and/or Roast Chicken and seldom with rice.

For me, I normally order the roast pork. And I go there so frequently that the guy knew how I like my roast pork. And here's a tip if you have flexible timing, if you want to be served fast, go to the restaurant before 12pm. Yup, any time before 12pm, you'll get your pork noodle within 15min after order. After 12pm, expect a waiting line of up to 45min.

Heading there during the peak lunch hour of 1pm, expect the food only arriving after an hour, if you're extremely unlucky, 1 and the half hour later. Yup, you read it right. That's the amount of time they'll take once the orders piles up. The best part is, you actually see and hear people telling the stall owner that they don't mind waiting and will sit diligently in the restaurant for their pork noodle.

Whenever I have craving for Pork Noodle, you can bet that it's the first place you'll find me.

Sunrise Duck Revisit

StrippedSteph and I decided to revisit the famous Sunrise Duck Restaurant in Seapark. Told Joshuaong about it at the mamak session and ask him to bring his other half along. It was a Saturday and 11.30am was the time we arrived at the restaurant. We thought that it would be packed on a weekday, boy, it was super packed even at 11.30. We were lucky to find ourselves a table.

Joshua told us he'll be late so without waiting, we decide to order half a duck to start off as appetizer. The standard I normally order would also come with a plate of vegetable and 2 large bowl of soups as I love to drink soup.

About 12.30, Joshua and partner arrived, by then, we were done with our half of the duck. Here's the funny part, prior to them arriving, I decide to pre-order 1 whole duck so that when they arrive, the duck would be ready for us. The Boss Lady thought we wanted to pay and brought us the bill but I told her that we want 1 more duck and not to pay yet, she exclaimed aloud and drew the attention of the people around us. They must be thinking, why these 2 person after eating half a duck can still go for 1 whole duck. StrippedSteph and I had a good laugh looking at their expression.

Anyway, when everyone's here. We wasted no time to attack the duck. Always good when the duck was served straight out of the kitchen so it's still piping hot and the skin is super crispy. It took us less than 30min to clean up the plate. It was their first trip there but I can say that they wasn't disappointed as before we left, Joshua and partner ordered another half duck to take home "for their friend". So yah .... We believe you two.

A lunch well done. Satisfied to the max. Can't wait for the next round.

Hogs Breath @ Vivo City

This should have gone up some time back but haven't got around to do it. There had been talks about this place known as Hogs Breath and there was on located at Vivo City. There's live band entertaining all the patrons of the restaurant but one thing I'd like to say is that, they started off nice but as the evening draws on, they start to get louder and louder. Basically it was just so noisy that we had to go off rather than hanging around to enjoy a few pints of beer.

The waiters was quite efficient though, we were ushered to our place without much delay and our orders promptly taken when it was needed to so no complains from there. What we ordered?

Combo: Half Rack Pork Ribs and 200 grams Prime Rib of Beef - I ordered the combo, char-grilled pork ribs and medium cooked beef, the pork ribs was prepared perfectly but then, it's hard to go wrong with pork. Served with some salad and fries which is fine by me. I wanted the mash potatoes but the mash potatoes was prepared with cheese.

Natural Prime Rib - For the prime rib fans, char-grilled, tender and mouthwatering. The meat ordered was medium cooked and it was prepared as ordered. Some places just doesn't know how to prepare it the way we want it. Served with corn on cob, vegetables and mash potatoes. This was ordered by StrippedSteph.

Mississippi Mud Cake - Supposedly Hog's Breath's special mud cake, it's served with cream and ice cream.

I would go back to the restaurant again if they'd lower down the volume on their band. Food wise, it's good. It's the live band's noise that irritates me.
