白 White Restaurant at The Punggol Settlement

Recently my friends have been a little adventurous, wanting to go to super ulu food outlets with crazy queues.

Boon Lay power nasi lemak was crap so I won’t even bother with that (in short, not worth the time spent driving there and then queuing), but a more notable place would be the White Restaurant at Punggol Settlement.

The Punggol Settlement is actually a row of F&B outlets by the sea, reminding me a little of the seafood restaurants along ECP. 

We went to the White Restaurant on a Thursday night and this was the queue.

The waitress passed us the menu to order while queuing and within 20 minutes, there was a table ready. However, the waitress seemed quite insistent that we pass her our order before we were seated and kept rushing us to complete the order form, which was a bit of a turn off.

Signature White Bee Hoon

I actually never heard of the place before my friends told me about it so when they said white bee hoon, I assumed it was the dry kind we normally eat for breakfast. This was more like hor fun or mui fun, but without the burnt taste those 2 always seem to have. It was served with prawns, squid, vegetables and LOTSA egg in a tasty gravy that was just the right consistency, not too thick or diluted. Very yums! 

Price: $15 (L) 

Prawn Omelette

I liked this 'coz it combines 2 of my favourite things, however some of the guys said that it was a little bland.

Price: $8 (S)

Sweet Potato Leaves

Did not touch this as it was spicy, but my friends loved it and one even said that it was the best side dish.

Price: $8 (S)

Signature Meat and Seafood Roll

I was expecting alot more from this dish, but it was quite dry and I couldn't really taste the seafood. The rest weren't really impressed either. My mum's ngoh hiang wins hands down! 

Price: $15 (M)

Salted Egg Sotong

Definitely my favourite side dish!! No, scratch that, it was my favourite dish! I may be biased 'coz i LOVELOVELOVE salted egg but the salted egg went so well with the sotong, crunchy and chewy and just YUMMY. 

Price: $12 (S)

I've heard that the original outlet at Sembawang is nicer, but I ain't gonna travel all the way there when this is good enough and nearer. Apparently there's one bus (84) that stops at The Punggol Settlement, but driving would probably be more convenient (just don't lose your way; we did at first). Bus or car, I'm definitely going back there for seconds!
