All that flavor from all the spices! Omg! I'm sure it's even more delicious if your eat it there rather than 2 days after lol I would definitely return!

Its debut in Manila was overshadowed a bit by Wee Nam Kee, but I honestly feel that Boon Tong Kee's food is closer to the true spirit and taste of its Singapore equivalent. For some reason, both local chains just can't replicate the original flavor. I guess it's a mystery that will be left unsolved. Going back to Boon Tong Kee and its merits, they aren't half-bad. Their coffee pork ribs tickle your palate like no other. And of course, let's not forget the star of the show: the chicken.

Bugis, whose word came from the Bugis Street Food Market in Singapore offers hawker food here. We ordered their famous laksa, Hainanese chicken rice, pork curry, and stir-fried vegetables. The laksa is good for sharing. It has a very coconut-y taste with some spice. The noodles are complemented with shabu-shabu balls. A meal in itself. The hainanese chicken was light, tender and flavorful. I love the curry with pork, and the vegetables were just simple yet delicious. Delicious and affordable, this restaurant is always packed, and with clear reasons too.

Sentosa is one of the very few Singaporean restaurants here in the Philippines. When I went here…read morefor the very first time, I was totally clueless and I didn't know what to expect from Singaporean food. I am always willing to try out different Asian cuisines so I thought it would be an absolutely wonderful idea to go here to check out the different types of dishes that they have to offer. The first time I went to Sentosa, I immediately noticed that almost all of the dishes they serve have curry in them. I am not particularly fond of curry or anything spicy so I was a little bit reluctant to order. I just wanted to slowly get out of the restaurant without ordering, but my friend was too shy to move from her seat. I had no choice so I just ordered their Singaporean Roast Chicken. After sitting for about 15 minutes, my food finally came. My mouth immediately began to drool as the waiter brought our order. It looked absolutely amazing! I could already tell just by looking at it that I'd be full by the end of the meal. The roasted chicken was so soft and tender that it could literally melt in your mouth. Good thing my friend stopped me from leaving Sentosa. It would have been such a big loss if I just left without even tasting their food.

He keeps on insisting on taking me to places that serve spicy food, and I keep exerting my dominance (heh) because I do not want my mouth burning from a thousand different spices. Sometimes, though, I let him have his way, which is how we ended up eating at Sentosa. I was reluctant to order since everything on the menu seemed spicy, but I finally caved and ordered their laksa with a whole lot of rice on the side to deaden the heat. It turned out to be a moot point since you can ask the staff to lay off the spices, which made my laksa oh-so-delicious. Ah, good help is so hard to find nowadays so when you do, never let them go.

You don't really know what could have gone wrong. Could it be the change in water, chicken, or spices? Either way, it just doesn't taste the same, which is a shame. If you're going to eat the Hainanese Chicken Rice without the Singapore perspective (or turn a blind eye) however, the local version quickly turns decent. For some reason that really boggles the mind, we just can't copy chicken rice for the life of us. So if you're hankering for some chicken rice, you might as well go to Wee Nam Kee because they have the whole formula down. Just order, drink your soup, put some chili and ginger on your chicken, and eat. This'll be the closest you'll get outside of Singapore so it isn't that bad.

The Hainanese chicken was served a bit chilled but was very tender, and accompanie by an accoutrements of sauces, allowing each bite to be different from the next. We also shared their Kaya Toast, a staple of Singaporean breakfast. It consist of toast with crust cut off with the inside coated with coconut jam and slice of butter. Alongside are two soft boil eggs used to dip the toast into. It's a contrast of sweet a savory action but it all works well together. When you order the Kaya Toast set it also comes with hot coffee or tea. The tea was milky.

I've traveled around the Philippines and haven't had many vegan dishes but for the occasional tokwat (tofu) dish. So to get a dish that was veganized was pretty amazing. Somehow they were able to make this traditional dish minus the shrimp paste. Its slightly sweet and yet savory taste had me going back for more. The green mango on top was the clincher for me. It was so good and affordable. I definitely recommend this place to any vegan, vegetarian and don't worry carnivores. There's plenty on the menu for you, too.
