Taman Jurong Market and Food Centre (Jurong West) - Chik's Crib

Taman Jurong Market and Food Centre (Jurong West)

Although it's easy to spot on a map (it's directly across the road from Jurong Stadium), but it's a little inconvenient to get to unless you have a car. There's a couple of renowned food stalls here that makes it worth your perseverance if you do make the trek. 

Tien Lai Rice Stall

Don't be fooled by their plain signboard; step a little closer and you'll see the numerous accolades that they received throughout the years. The cha siew is so fragrant and fatty, spurts of fats burst in your mouth as you chew. For the squeamish of heart, the cha siew can be a little on the charred side, but the charred ends taste the best. The roast pork is good as well, with crispy skin, but it's not head and shoulders above the competition like their cha siew is. 

58 Minced Meat Noodles

Miss XS has only eaten bak chor mee from two stores that she actually likes. All the other stores just turn her stomach. The first is Da Hua Bak Chor Mee at Hong Lim Food Centre, and this is the other store. 
When I ate here, the noodles were really spicy, and I could appreciate their bowl of noodles. Miss XS said they usually are much more moderate with the chili. It was pretty darn good, and I ate it until I couldn't tolerate the spice. 

My 2-cents: Have a bowl of bak chor mee for lunch, and tapao the char siew back home.
