semua claim sama je, food supplier dari halal source

matz tak favourite french food.no offence ya,this is my opinion aja.matz don't like to hurt people feeling.office selalu jugak bawak clients out for dinner.kadang2 makan beribu,opis bayar diaorang order  macam atok nya punya restaurant.dia punya wine aja dah beratus.i went once kat orchard.nak tarok nama tak best lah,nanti boleh kena sue tak?ni tempat class selalu ada kat tv,dia orang selalu menang award.dia serve  food kat pinggan besar but the food portion sikit,lepas tu kat pinggan pun dia orang nak decorate with the food to look appetising.my colleagues enjoy the food,maklum lah ni tempat mahal.to average people like us, matz tak reti lah.i rather have nasi padang food...cheap and good.

ah ni aku baru lepas makan ROJAK INDIA...

so aku pun tengah pikir ni, ada tak tempat kedai jual Rojak India yang best.

Untuk aku highlight satu je...
pasal kedai ni memang ramai pelanggan...


Korang tahu Pasar Geylang Serai...

Kat Pusat Penjaja tu....tapi dia bukan kat yang gerai2 sederet2 tu tau.

Dia kat belakang sekalik, yang pakai warung kayu.
Ah, kalo korang dari arah Joo Chiat Complex punya bridge tu,
korang lalu kat lorong antara flat hdb ngan pawagam Singapura ( McDonalds ) ah, ni kedai yang first sekali korang nampak kat kiri.


Gerai mamak ni top hits la... pukul 11 gitu, dah nampak makcik2 semua berderet nak beli.
Habis tu kalo korang lambat eh, by pukul dua lebih tiga gitu,
ada dish cam kentang ke apa  ke, dah habis dah...

Best nye, dorang masak dish2 rojak semua kat situ jugak...jadi fresh habis...
Kuah rojak dia pun sedap.

kebanyakkan kedai aku tengok, bila kita dah pilih pilih apa kita nak kat pinggan, dia deep fried lagik sekalik.
Mungkin nak kasi panaz ataupun dah lama punya.

rotiboy

k, hari ni sokkabar omputeh ada ceta pasal Rotiboi dan jugak makanan2 lain yang seangkatan ngan rotiboi...

aku rasa sebahagian makanan disebut kat artikel ni semua tak halal cam breadtalk punya floss pork....





Next big thing

Long queues, drooling crowds, frenzied sales? Yup, the next food fad has arrived - in the shape of Rotiboy

By Teo Pau Lin

THE great Singapore queue is back. This time, it's at China Square where pastry lovers wait in line for 20 minutes before they reach the hallowed counter of Rotiboy Bakeshoppe.



Selling like hot cakes: Just a few of the 4,500 buns that cross the counter every day. Across the Causeway, the number rises to 20,000. -- PHOTOS: STEPHANIE YEOW

Since July, customers have been ordering up to 30 pieces each of the only item on the menu - the Rotiboy bun.

It looks simple enough - a rotund mound capped with caramelised coffee cream and filled with melted butter.

But its feathery soft bread, subtle coffee aroma and addictive blend of sweet and salty tastes is a winner.

Demand is so great that sales are a staggering 4,500 buns a day. It costs $1.20 each but $1.10 each if you buy two or more.

The Rotiboy is the latest food craze to hit Singapore since foodies clamoured for Beard Papa cream puffs in 2002.

In Malaysia, where Rotiboy Bakeshoppe originated from, 11 outlets in Kuala Lumpur, Seremban and Johor Baru see 20,000 buns flying off the shelves each day.

Singaporeans even drove up to Johor Baru's City Square to cart back bagfuls of the stuff.

'Even before we opened in Singapore, we'd been getting franchise inquiries from Singaporeans for over a year,' says business development manager Angel Ng.

So when the first company-owned Rotiboy outlet opened in China Square in July, 'there were already customers waiting'.


More, more


THE store, with its open-concept kitchen, takes up one unit in the foodcourt. But during peak hours between noon and 2pm, up to 40 customers queue in a line that snakes past four stalls next door.

Its staff of 10 can only squeeze in 10 minutes for lunch, with 'no time for the toilet', adds Ms Ng with a laugh.

It will soon expand into the next-door unit occupied formerly by Han's. By next month, it will open its second outlet in Raffles City MRT Station.

Founded in 1998 by Mr Hiro Tan, 39, Rotiboy started in Penang as a family business offering home-style buns and breads. He named it Rotiboy after he heard his eight-year-old nephew being called 'naughty boy' by his father one day.

Mr Tan moved the shop to Kuala Lumpur in 2002 to tap a bigger market. Soon after, its version of the Mexican bun - round breads with a variety of crusty toppings - became a runaway hit and was nicknamed the Rotiboy bun.

While it has created a huge splash here, it is not the first to do so.

Singapore has hosted a string of food fads over the past decade - from Japan's Miki Ojisan No Mise cheesecake in 1995 to Perth's apple strudel in 1999 and Taiwan's bubble tea in 2001.

The various crazes reached a peak after one or two years, then faded, some into complete oblivion. Will Rotiboy suffer the same fate?

'It depends on whether the bun is hard to replicate,' says Mr Tan Hsien Wei, lecturer in Temasek Polytechnic's division of hospitality and tourism management.

He says the reason the bubble tea fad crashed so spectacularly was that it was copied so extensively. With low start-up costs and no skills or secret recipes required, more than 5,000 bubble tea shops sprouted all over the island in 2001.

'If others find the Rotiboy bun hard to copy, it may have a longer shelf life because it retains its uniqueness and novelty,' he adds.



Tray chic: The latest food craze in town, in a town crazy about food.
Copycat Rotiboy buns have already surfaced in Malaysia's bakeries and night markets.

Ms Ng says: 'It's easy to copy our ingredients but very hard to get the taste right.'

Food business consultant Vincent Gabriel observes that food crazes are common in big cities like Hong Kong, Taipei and Manila.

Singaporeans, in particular, 'like to feel like they're up to date, and need something to feel excited about once in a while', he says.


Will it last?


WHEN public relations executive Karen Liaw first walked past Rotiboy a month ago, she asked someone in the queue what he was lining up for, only to find that he didn't know either.

'People just want to be part of the excitement,' she says.

She is now hooked on the bun herself and believes it is one craze that will last.

'It tastes good and it's affordable, not like other products that cost $2,' she says.

Rotiboy hopes to open 18 outlets within two years and bring the entire range of buns and breads here.

'There are always risks in business,' Ms Ng says about Rotiboy's longevity. 'We've been in KL for two years already and we're still doing well. Besides, we have so many other breads to introduce.'

Judging from the queues for the Rotiboy bun, there might be no need to do that just yet.




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Remember them? Food fads in recent years



Beard Papa (2002)


THIS Japanese franchise opened in Takashimaya Food Hall in 2002. Despite a price tag of $2 per cream puff, it drew snake-like queues around the shop for its deliciously light pastry shells with fresh cream made from vanilla beans.

A year later, the long queues were gone. The shops have since introduced chocolate cream puffs. Prices remain at $2 each.

Where are they now?: Three outlets at Takashimaya Food Hall, Seiyu in Bugis Junction and Causeway Point.


Bubble tea (2001)


THE Taiwanese craze caused a sensation when it reached Singapore in 2001. Customers stood in long queues for a cool cup of flavoured tea with chewy tapioca balls.

At its height, Singapore had more than 5,000 shops, many of them single-shop operators in the heartland. As many as 1,000 cups were snapped up a day at an average outlet.

But the bubble burst spectacularly after one year. The oversaturated market, coupled with poor quality drinks, drowned out demand and forced many to close.

Where are they now?: Most of the chains have folded. Many neighbourhood shops sell them for as cheap as $1 a cup. Cool Station, which has six outlets in locations including Takashimaya Food Hall, Jurong Point and Novena Square, has maintained prices at between $1.50 and $2.50 a cup.

Pork floss bun (2000)



IT IS just a bun covered with special mayonnaise and a carpet of pork floss. But BreadTalk's Flosss bun was the undisputed star when the boutique bakery opened in 2000.

It single-handedly made up 20 per cent of total sales, and inspired copycats.

Still one of the chain's bestsellers, it now comes in four versions - pork floss, spicy pork floss, chicken floss and spicy chicken floss.

A spokesman says the Flosss bun is also among the top five favourites in its 24 regional outlets, including Jakarta, Shanghai and Kuwait.

Where are they now?: The Flosss bun is available in all 24 BreadTalk outlets, at $1.40 each.



Apple strudel (1999)


THE first bakery to bring in this Perth speciality was Renaldo's. Pastry fans loved the spiced apples and oodles of fresh cream and custard sandwiched between layers of crispy filo pastry.

Owner Bibiana Cheng recalls selling 500 logs a day during the first Christmas season. Within a year, two other strudel shops - Ritz Apple Strudel and The Strudel House - sprouted. They currently operate three and four outlets respectively.

Ms Cheng now sells about 50 logs ($18.80 each) a day, and has branched into making savoury pastries like chicken veggie pie and sausage roll.

Where are they now?: Renaldo's has three outlets in Eastwood Centre, 7 Circular Road and Centrepoint Cold Storage.

Portuguese egg tart (1998)

ORIGINATING in Macau, the Portuguese egg tart boasts a flakier crust and a more eggy taste.

At its height in 1998, more than 25 outlets sprang up to cash in on the craze. Madeleine's bakery opened five branches within a short span of six months, whipping up 2,000 tarts per outlet a day.

But within two years, most of the major suppliers had stopped or reduced production.

The five-outlet Lisboa Bakery saw demand fall by half by 1999. Golden Crown Restaurant in Commonwealth Avenue, the first to make the tarts here, stopped production in 2000.

Where are they now?: The only major operator left standing is Madeleine's bakery in 198, Tanjong Katong Road. It makes between 3,000 and 5,000 tarts a day and supplies 90 per cent of the market. The shop also retails them at $1.20 a tart.

Cinnamon roll (1996)



LACED liberally with fragrant cinnamon and sticky syrup, the soft pastry bewitched customers with its strong aroma.

Up to 2,500 rolls were sold a day when the first Saint Cinnamon Bake Shoppe opened in Caltex House in 1996.

By 1997, six outlets of the Canadian franchise had sprouted around town. Its fortunes dipped after a few years.

Where are they now?: Its last outlet at Causeway Point closed a month ago. You can find similar cinnamon rolls in local outfit, Cinnabun Tree, in Great World City, priced between $1.80 and $2.30.

Japanese cheesecake (1995)


FOUNDED by a Japanese based here, Miki Ojisan No Mise introduced a type of cheesecake that Singaporeans had never tasted before - light and miraculously fluffy.

When it opened in Paragon in 1995, customers queued for up to an hour even though they could only buy a maximum of two cakes.

The recipe was widely copied and similar cakes can now be found in neighbourhood bakeries. Miki Ojisan has since branched into making fresh cream cheesecakes and choux cream puffs.

The super-light cheesecakes ($7.70) still make up 70 per cent of total sales. You can now order as many as you like.

Where are they now?: Four outlets in Takashimaya Food Hall, Centrepoint Cold Storage, Jason's supermarket in Raffles City and Block 41 #01-01, Holland Drive.
