Shi Xin Western Food 时新西餐 is a western food hawker stall located at Tekka Food Centre.
As its name suggests, the stall owner serves Western cuisine such as black pepper beef steak, fish and chips, chicken cutlet, chicken chop and pork chop. 15 varieties in total. The stall is manned by just 1 person, a lady. Not an easy feat considering that preparations are required and she has to juggle between receiving goods, taking orders, cooking and collecting payment. Moreover, this is the only western stall in the hawker centre and business can be quite good during meal times. Amazing how 1 person can handle all these. She must be very capable.
This is the Pork Chop $5.50. It is served with fries, bake beans, sliced cucumbers and tomato, and a bun.
Personally, the sides were decent. The down side was that the main star, which was the pork chop, was too tough.
On another occasion, I ordered the Chicken Chop $5.50. I added an egg for an additional $0.70. This fared better in terms of taste. The egg was nicely executed with its yolk still runny. The chicken chop was juicy and well marinated!
I find the price of the western cuisine at this stall very reasonable. Also, all the items come along with a bun.
