Food Trip: Lai Lai Casual Dining/来来红烧牛肉面
20 Liang Seah St./Jurong Point B1-60




Checked out this eatery with dar last Sunday. Dar doesn't enjoy beef much, yet she has good reviews for this eatery. So i guess it's worthy of a trip.


"A taste of original Taiwan."

As their slogan may suggest, this eatery serves beef noodles Taiwan style. So don't expect to see your usual beef noodles with thick brown/black sauce.


Fried shallots in chili oil. This chili is shiok i tell you. Woot.


Dar's 卤肉饭加蛋, $5.90.


Side dish fried brinjal with pork floss.


Mine. 红烧牛肉面 + side dish + bubble tea = $13.90

The beef is not your usual boiled slices, but they're braised beef. So it's much more flavored, and softer, such that they'll just disintegrate in your mouth. Added $1's worth of beef tendons. They're very soft yet chewy. It was my first time eating tendons but i quite enjoyed the texture and bite.

The noodles though were a lil disappointing. It lacks the chewiness of handmade noodles and tastes overcooked. I think i'd enjoy dar's rice more. Hee.

The brinjal's serving was huge, considering it's supposed to be served for one person only. The brinjal-pork floss combination is unique and strangely delightful. But it would be better if there was an accompanying sauce so the brinjal wouldn't taste dry and for the pork floss would stick on it better.

The service wasn't fantastic though. But overall the experience was quite pleasant. I'll rate it 3.5/5. :)
