Spice Into the New Year: A Start-Work Lunch at Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine

Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine at 8-10 Mosque Street Happy Lunar New Year to all my readers, wherever you may be. I started work today (19.02.2026). Although not many colleagues were around, I still managed to gather a few close ones for a “start-work lunch” at a fancy restaurant that serves Chinese cuisine. After some discussion, we decided on Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine in Chinatown. Even better, it was my first time trying their food. I’ve always known it to be a popular spot with notoriously long queues. Thankfully, we arrived early because right after we were seated, a steady stream of patrons began pouring in. Snacks & Ice Cream Corner for patrons once you enter As we entered the restaurant, we were greeted by the Snacks & Ice Cream Corner located opposite the waiting area. I didn’t even realize it was there until we were about to leave! My colleagues especially loved the Golden Horn Snack, but I thought both options, including the Crispy Crust, were equally good.

Food Review | Tiong Bahru Yong Tao Hu


Went Leisure Park Kallang after work to get a new washing machine from Mega Discount Store. Once done, time for dinner. Walked around in search for food and happen to come across this Tiong Bahru Yong Tao Hu. A lousy foodie me who didn't even know of this existence. I only know the one at People's Park Food Centre that always have a long queue and sold out even before lunch time end.

This place served authentic Hakka Yong Tao Hu that are freshly made and in their menu, there are different combinations to choose from; dry, soup or laksa base, yellow noodles, beehoon or kway teow or any two. Sides like otah, prawn rolls, veggie and big fishcake. Here our picks:


Signature Yong Tao Hu (Dry) with Yellow Noodles $7.20

Simple bowl of YTH, mixed with sweet and chilli sauce. Just like any YTH. But here, you don't get to choose the ingredients but take what is given. Tofu, fishballs and beancurd skin wrapped with fish stuffing. But the noodles portion was not a lot even though we got a Large one. 



Yong Tao Hu Laksa with Beehoon + Yellow Noodles $6.60

This laksa base was good and not diluted. Same amount of ingredients given like their Signature. Always love having yellow mee, sometimes adding beehoon to it. I always believe that yellow mee has this good absorption of taste when cooked.





Big Fish Cake $3.50

According to the culinary instinct of my husband, he said that in order to achieve such crisps on the outside without losing the taste and moist on the inside, it required the hot oil and fast frying. Nice and I love it so much. 


For thirst quencher, we ordered a Iced Barley and Lime at $1.80 each. 

Overall, it was alright but the noodles portion isn't that filling and definitely not worth the price. But apparently, it seems like by 8+ at night, their food were sold out. So probably it was good in others' opinion.
