[Closed] Tamoya Udon Chinatown Point – Love The Udon, Not The Tempura

Lee’s Taiwanese – Almost Close to Authentic Taste of Taiwan

Café 2000 – International, Seafood & Barbeque Buffet Dinner at M Hotel

Founder Bak Kut Teh – Is This Jay Chou’s Favourite BKT?
Sometime back, I wrote a tongue-in-cheek post at HungryGoWhere on where to find the king of Mando pop Jay Chou in Singapore (and yes, he had a concert in Singapore 2 weeks back), and guess what… Seems like the abs-solutely lean and fit Jay Chou cannot resist a bowl...
