Cheers Cut Singapore - The Taiwanese Ninja Crispy Chicken Cutlet

ABBEY: I saw Cheers Cut in social media and I was amazed how big the chicken chop is. For SGD8.90 you can get a huge chop of chicken fried to crispiness and topped with your sauce. I chose wasabi mayo and it went well with the chicken. 

They offer free soup but need to pay SGD 1.60 more for the rice. Same taste with other fried chicken but only the size differs.

WILL: After vising some of Official Merlions we dined at a Taiwanese cuisine food stall in Food Republic, the Cheers Cut. 

Abbey excitedly ordered the chicken chop and I went for their signature braised pork rice ($5.90). Well, it is braised so the sauce was camerilized that brought a sweet flavour to it. This dish lit up my brain and reminds me of Chowking (conglomerate of Jollibee). The not so good is, it has a small portion not appropriately balanced with the volume of the rice. 

If you are in Orchard Area, you can head to this hawker stall before your movie starts at Shaw Lido Orchard.

Penang Place Restaurant - Quality Penang Food

ABBEY: Our first NEM meetup is at Penang Place (Suntec). I tried their fried rice set. It comes with crispy fried chicken wing, slices of cucumber, baby tomatoes, and pickled carrot, cucumber, ginger and radish. 

The rice is a whole meal in itself. It has shrimps, egg, and vegetables. All the elements in my plate are complementing each other. I enjoyed the meal.

WILL: It's a meetup! NEMSG meets NEMPH! Wohoo! We celebrated over food at Penang Place at Suntec City. 

I went for Asam Laksa. This taste is pretty near on the the one we ate at Kuala Lumpur. The aroma of delectable fish sauce heightens the taste of its thick soup. Yum! Noodles were firm and not overcooked. 

If a bowl is not enough for you? They are offering a buffet.

Binagoongang Baboy (Pork in Shrimp Paste)

Ingredients:
1/2 kilo pork
2-3 spoonfuls bagoong (depends on your preference)
1 medium onion (sliced)

Sauté onion, garlic, pork, then bagoong. Let the pork absorb the flavor of shrimp paste.
Simmer until pork until tender. Reduce the liquid after.
Serve with rice.


Binagoongang Baboy (Pork in Shrimp Paste)

WILL: Papa RS brought us his famous bagoong (shrimp paste) and what such a good meal to do with it? Of course, BINAGOONGANG BABOY. 

First, be careful to put a right amount of shrimp paste or else it will end it to a disaster. Abbey found the perfect amount that make my appetite blast upward. I made three rounds of rice on this. Haha. 

Pork is tender and shrimp paste gives a bearable salty kick on it. Yum!

Pezzo Pizza Singapore's Charcoal Dough

ABBEY : Pezzo Pizza is offering 3 unique pizza flavors on their pizza line. Each pizza is having black charcoal dough. 

We bought  a slice of What the Duck, Pump'd Up Cheese, Trufflin' Truffle Mushroom. All I can say is that they are all delicious and they really standout compared to the normal flavors. Who would have thought that aside from pineapple, you can put cranberries in a pizza? 

All three slices cost SGD 15.90.

WILL: Curious with black pizza black dough.. we bought the Pezzo's Charcoal Dough. This was highly recommended by Night Owl Cinematics and Abbey is restless to have a bite on it. 

Damn good! The black dough is soft and yet filling. It is overloaded with cheese and toppings. Best part are the mushrooms. You can taste its freshness and firmness, not overcooked and it is a chunk, not sliced thinly unlike competitors. 

Pezzo Pizza is IN! You will be happier when you you will eat this. Haha!
