This is my 3rd time here at this ABC Brickworks Food Centre, and both my previous trip here, this stall was closed by the time I reached.
So yesterday after I ordered the chicken rice, I hurried to this stall, and luck was with me, it was still open! Immediately went up to buy myself 5 char siew bao (60 cents each).
The char siew bao here are pretty bite size, probably similar to the ones from Tanjong Rhu bao. For a big mouth like mine, I could easily stuff one of these bao into my mouth at one time :P .
Actually, read about this bao stall at a few blogs before, which says the char siew bao was actually very good. So how does it taste? Well, the bao is definitely good, obviously much better than many you might find. My friend who does not like to eat char siew bao also find it quite good. However, I find the filling is a bit salty, else it would have been a 4 star. So overall, I'll give this a 3.5 star for this char siew bao.
So if you want to check out this bao stall, try to be there before 8 or even 7!

My last 2 trips there this year was kinda disappointing as well. First time, somewhere near CNY, a lot of seafood was sold out, even the beer! Thought cos we were there late, so the next time we decided to get there earlier, and this time, the crab where sold out!
Service was also very slow and not enuff people to serve the customers.
Food wise, I think price is still ok, but I think the food is not longer as good as when it was less well known.... planning to try senibong next round...

This is located opposite the Yishun sports hall.... at the cross junction there... if you take mrt, during the durian seasons, u might notice people waiting there... is been 2 years since I been there, not sure if it is still around.

Have not been to Jogoya before, but I've been to the Gonbei opposite. Priced similarly to Jogoya if not wrong, and I thought the service and food was pretty good.

I went with 7 adults and 1 kid, we spent less than $120. I would safely hazard a guess of $18 - $25 per person, depending on how hungry you get. Real value for money for quality food.

Is diagonally opposite Jogoya. Supposedly the quality is better than Jogoya. Price wise, if we convert currency, then Malaysia is cheaper. If we do not convert currency, then Singapore is cheaper. Generally, a japanese buffet in Siingapore is around SGD30+ range.
