Let's take a break from dim sum, and look at another snack. Do you like the Indian-Muslim curry puffs? Years ago you could find really nice ones but these days the generic ones carried by the normal neighbourhood shop are almost inedible. So I was quite happy to find a shop in Joo Chiat that specially sells these. They also carry samosas and other snacks.
There are various fillings, denoted by the different shapes. Curry potato, chicken and beef rendang (with the lattice work) curry puffs, ranging from S$0.80 to S$1.60.
I like that the filling is quite generous, but the skin of the curry puffs can be a bit dry and hard. You can toast them briefly to get the skin all crispy again.
The lamb samosa is really spicy! Yummy! So is the beef rendang. One thing to note is - all of these are incredibly "heaty". So drink a lot of cooling beverages and you should be fine.
