Lam has a weird eating habit.

For example when eating chicken rice; to him the chicken meat itself is not important. What matter was the rice and chili sauce.

So accordingly the world of Ah Lam, best chicken rice he ever had was at beach road. In fact he gave me the rating of the chicken rice...BEST in Singapore.

I see 2 thumps up...let's try, I told him.

You know how long since he step inside this place? About more than 10 years ago. We walked up and down, finally Ah Lam managed to recognize the restaurant.

(This restaurant was inside this traditional pre-war shop house)

The inside was obviously old and run down. Tables with marbles on the top and wooden chairs were like antique, back in the 1970s. I have to admit, it's pretty charming blend of century-old touches inside.

Hey, even the folks eating inside were old as well.

Total damage: SGD22.00 (Including pork chop, half chicken)

Chicken rice was fragrant however can't say much about the chicken meat.
It was very dry.

My verdict: Fail...fail...fail.

After dinner our next stop, wash hair.

For the past few months, every week without fail we would have hair-washing experience. This saloon is somewhere at Jalan Besar.

While at the price of SGD15.00, you get hair wash + back massage.

Question: So why do we come here to wash hair?
Answer: Simply because they really wash your hair.

Here take a look,....
