There have been fairly quite a few closures at Chinatown Complex Market and Food Centre. Hawker legends have been opting to shut their stalls for a number of causes, however that offers room for brand spanking new openings. Huong Que Quan Vietnamese Cuisine is one in every of them, as it’s new to the Chinatown neighbourhood.
Instead of lamenting the current closing of Zhao Ji Claypot Rice on the similar hawker centre, Huong Que Quan Vietnamese Cuisine acts as a contemporary inclusion to the inexperienced zone of Chinatown Complex Market and Food Centre.
However, they’re not a brand new face to the F&B scene. They had been beforehand at Tanglin Halt Food Centre, up till Tanglin Halt was closed for demolishment. They have been off the radar since Oct 2021, until their current motion. If you’ve visited their earlier stall, their exterior doesn’t look fully completely different from earlier than, so it’s straightforward to make the connection.
They formally opened on 16 Mar 2023, asserting their reopening with a promotion of free dessert for everybody who visits the shop from 16 to 31 Mar 2023.
Huong Que Quan Vietnamese Cuisine has quite a few choices that don’t differ that drastically from their earlier stall. You’ll see the standard Vietnamese unfold of banh mi, Vietnamese spring rolls, bun cha, bun thit and pho.
They function Bun Thit Nuong and Chao Gio (S$7), which I presume needs to be a crowd favorite contemplating how the Vietnamese marinate their meats. A bowl features a fried spring roll and grilled pork slices on prime of heat bee hoon. This is accompanied by a particular fish sauce, which is utilised as a dipping sauce.
There isn’t a lot that may go unsuitable with each variations of bun cha and bun thit, which could get you asking— what’s the distinction between the 2? Bun cha separates the sauce and noodles, whereas bun thit usually drizzles the sweet-tangy sauce on prime of the grilled meats.
If you’re pondering of getting one thing lighter for lunch or dinner, you may by no means go unsuitable with the selection of banh mi. At Huong Que Quan Vietnamese Cuisine, you may select between flavours corresponding to Baguette with pork ham (S$6), Sardine (S$6), Eggs (S$4.50) and Steamed bun with minced pork (S$7).
With costs ranging from S$4.50 for Vietnamese meals, I believe that’s a stable catch.
