Ever since the chinatown food centre moved from their temporary location beside Outram MRT to the original renovated location, I've not visited the place since. Decided to grab some lunch there today to see what's nice.
The renovated place is huge, with lots of seats, and lots of stalls to choose from. After walking one round, I decided to settle for this braised duck stall, which have a slight queue. The stall is run by an old couple, with the lady doing the chopping of the duck.
Ordered duck meat for 2 person and a bowl of porridge ($8). The duck was pretty nice and together with the gravy seems to go pretty well with the porridge I ordered.
Overheard that one duck cost $40, which I though might be a little pricey?
Overall, pretty decent braised duck with nothing fanciful. Just simple and nice. :)

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.
