It’s rare to find Roti Jala nowadays but today, I  chanced upon a stall and so it’s a must try since I’ve not tried it before. I love trying new stuffs. Roti Jala is a traditional Malay dish which is popular during the Muslim Fasting Month of Ramadan. It’s lacey and net-like pancake/crepe served with curry. I like the net-like pancake as it tasted like prata. It has a rubbery texture and is not oily. 4 slices of Roti Jala served with chicken curry and a hard-boiled egg cost $3.80.

Next I tried the Cempedak Goreng from this stall. Cempedak belongs to the jackfruit family. It’s a smaller version of the Jackfruit and it taste like fried sweet dough. Oil haters will need to be aware of this delicacy as it’s oily. The price of each Cempedak Goreng is 70 cents.

There is getting more and more Japanese food stalls in heartland hawker centres. Tried the beef ramen in miso soup which cost $7.90 nett! What a bargain for a price for a bowl of ramen as it’ll usually cost about $15 per bowl these days. Went to look up more information about this stall and realised that it’s opened by the owner of Astons.( http://ieatishootipost.sg/2013/11/aji-ichi-best-beef-donburi-for-under-8.html) Pretty cool venturing into the increasingly popular Japanese cuisine among Singaporeans after establishing Astons as an affordable western franchise.

The Ajisuke Tamago (Japanese soft boiled eggs with the yolk half cooked) yolk isn’t half cooked and the quality of the ramen isn’t as chewy as those which we can expect in Japanese restaurants. However, they are generous in the portion of beef slices they gave and the beef is tasty! Overall, this is a good place for someone who wants to crave his ramen and has a tight budget. Would want to try the Nabemono which serves 3-4pax ( Pork : $39.90, Angus Beef : $49.90, Assorted : $59.90) the next time round!
