    Ok as an NTU alumnus who graduated last year, all the food tasted good even if they might suck because I was so stressed from studies that my taste buds go haywire. So if juniors wanna know about ntu food: everything taste good la!

    SMU Food recommendations!
    1. Tea Party (Mushroom Cream), their cream pastas are generally better
    2. Food Republic (manulife centre) - Chirashi Don
    3. Hong Seng Curry Rice - Curry Chicken
    4. Parklane Shopping Mall - AKA. POMO Caifan - The beehoon is damn legit + please try the butter chicken as well..
    5. Koufu Western Food
    6. B3 at the concourse the Thai burger (Not sure if they still have it on their menu!)
    And more options a bit further away but still within the vicinity of SMU...
    1. Teng bespoke (sunshine plaza) Japanese cuisine but its Vegetarian! Must try the vegetarian sashimi, really very impressive. Although it's quite expensive... hahah
    2. Fortune centre Korean 2nd floor - bimbimbap and some of the other dishes quite value for money! Very crowded during lunch hour.
    3. Sweet fish (Capitol Piazza)- Poke bowl, quite nice , just skip the yuzu one!

    SMU Recommendations:
    - Tea Party, Bacon Aglio Olio (many comments about the cream pasta but I prefer their aglio olio!! Although its oilier, it's quite a good comfort food)
    - Manulife Centre Food Republic, Roasted Chicken Rice (after eating this, this is THE ONLY chicken rice I eat, no kidding)
    - Parklane Mall Cai Fan (everyone calls it POMO caifan but it's actually located in Parklane mall -- cheap and good!)
    - Parklane Mall Malay Stall (next to caifan stall, their beef rendang is awesome)
    - SMU Koufu Fish Soup (fried fish or sliced fish with ee mian and milk)
    - SMU Koufu Western Food (one of the more decent meals in Koufu lol, try the fried fish / grilled chicken. Most importantly, don't get the coleslaw as one of your sides -- no one does that cuz it sucks LOL. Can try the cheese fries / pasta / mashed potato for sides :))

    I grew up in NTU and my dad was a professor there and all I can remember is this dry orange colored thin chicken strips which were a bit sweet and brown pad thai looking noodles. Omg I miss it so bad and suddenly have a memory of the taste, it was so good.

  • @vanessacheeispretty
    @vanessacheeispretty 7 лет назад +5

    Tea Party at SMU! Many people recommend the cream pastas but all the pastas are really good! Suggest that y'all order one cream based pasta and another that isn't cream based to see which one is really better!

  • @germaineyang

  • @fetishgreen
    @fetishgreen 7 лет назад

    Food near/in SMU:
    - Tea Party Bacon Aglio or Bacon Cream (School of Econs), can be damn salty depending on their mood and sometimes the Aglio olio can be too oily even though I like it.
    - Hong Seng Curry Rice Pork cutlet (Information Systems), take the mixed sauce option if you want it less spicy, it's not fantastic but a good option for takeaway.
    - Beancurd tart (Near Wilkie Edge), its my LIFE. ***
    - Thai Boat Noodles (Pomo, beside 7-11), the noodles are really Q ***
    - Teppei Chirashi (Raffles City), cheaper option is Food Republic's Chirashi but Teppei is MUCH fresher and the portion is bigger. ***
    - Honey Glazed Chicken Rice or the Ayam Penyet (Food Republic).
    - Leong Yeow Chicken Rice (Waterloo street), always long queue.
    - Taste Good Salted Egg Yolk Chicken or Butter Pork Ribs (Sim Lim Square, Level 2).

      @heeheehaheho5649 7 лет назад +2

      Mel T um there will still be RUclips in Chinese. China isn't the only place full of Chinese people, like Taiwan

    • @hoodini2260
      @hoodini2260 7 лет назад

      Well technically Taiwan is now part of the Republic of China so it doesn't count as an independent country (as of now).

    • @heeheehaheho5649
      @heeheehaheho5649 7 лет назад +1

      Mel T and? Since you mentioned that it's NOW that they are under China, obviously mean that it wasn't, so they would have RUclips, even Facebook, if they don't have it now.
      Besides, Taiwan still doesn't have censorship

      If it's known for bad food, please explain to me the long queues especially during lunch time. I frequently eat there and I find the food there delicious. Maybe it's just you who finds the food there bad...

    • @96Cheong

    There's a small and humble shop opposite SMU Hostel (walking distance from SMU campus) along Prinsep Street. Named "300 Boru", it is found within the premise of Geisha Specialty Coffee cafe. They specialise in two kinds of dry ramen, the Mazemen Kuro ($6.90) and Mazemen Shiro ($7.90) and 3 levels of spiciness!

Canteen B has taken a similar fate as 1, but the food remain, can't say the same for the prices. Canteen 2 had a change in hand as well, but all remain safe and sound... Can't have any opinion about canteens 12-15
