Hawker Food Review: Newton Circus Food Centre
17:23:00
Newton Food Centre, also widely known in Singapore as Newton Circus, is perpetually packed with locals and tourists alike. I know a lot of Singaporeans avoid going to Newton Food Centre as it is often seen as a tourist trap. But indeed , the price of the food over there is slightly more expensive compared to other places. Hence, i will recommend some must-try food whenever you are there.
1. BBQ Chicken Wings.
BBQ Chicken Wings - $1.40 /each
It was really yummy and well barbecued. No traces of blood within the meats while it was still as tender as it should be. Minimum order is 3 pieces. Any BBQ chicken wings stall sell at the same price and the taste is roughly the same.
Taste: 4/5
2. Satay.
Satay - $0.60/each stick for all types of meat.
I order 10 sticks of pork satay and 10 stick of mutton satay. The pork satay had alot of fats in them, which for me, I actually enjoyed. The mutton was considerably drier than the chicken and pork, but it didn't have the weird smell. The satay peanut sauce was chunky and tangy. It was really good.
Taste: 3.5/5
3. Sambal Stingray.
Sambal Stingray - $15 (Small)
It was really good. The soft and delicate fish, combined with spicy but rich and tasty, not overpowering sambal was really good! It's a must-try dish!!
Taste: 4/5
4. Oyster Omelette.
Oyster Omelette - $5
The egg was crispy on the top layer, but on the bottom layer, it was soggy and was very mushy. The oyster was quite little for the price and it wasn't that fresh too.
Taste: 1.5/5
5. Carrot Cake.
Black Carrot Cake - $5
It was really good, although it was quite expensive. There was a generous of egg in it. The sweet dark sauce went perfectly with the soft radish cake. f you don't like your savory things sweet, I suggest you go for the white/light version instead, which is more savory than the dark.
Taste: 3.75/5
6. Hokkien Mee.
Hokkien Mee - $5
It was very satisfying plate of hokkien mee with a lot of gravy. The noodles are wet, moist and flavorful! Generous serving of fresh ingredients.
Taste: 3.75/5
An table full of food is happiness!!
