While Beauty World Centre may be increasingly overshadowed by newer shopping malls, it is the perfect place to nest a hidden gem such as Victory Boat Noodle Cafe.
The Boat Noodles ($6.50) come in regular portions that are enough for a grown adult like me. If that does not suffice, the stall offers Moo Ping ($6.90), which is typically a meat skewer made with thinly sliced fatty pork butt. Finally, you can end the sinful meal with some healthy and refreshing Thai Mango Salad ($8).
Address: 144 Upper Bukit Timah Road, #01-09, Beauty World Centre, Singapore 588177
Opening hours: Daily 11:30am to 3:30pm, 4pm to 8:30pm

While the stretch of Liang Seah Street is my usual go-to for Chinese steamboats and skewers, there nestles a small entrance to Thailicious, a Thai restaurant that tries to integrate with its clever play of its Chinese name but stands out with its Thai dishes
The Pad Thai with Omelette ($13.90+) here achieves every Singaporean’s favourite wok hei taste. Their Boat Noodles ($10+) lean more herbal tasting, if it suits your taste buds. In addition, you can have a competition with your friends as you work through the 10 levels of spices offered here.
