Sar Hor Fun

Originally from Central China, Shahe fen is a rice cake strip, a popular noodle dish in Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei and Indonesia. 

Sold predominately as a “Hawker Stall” meal we have emulated the style of cooking and serving this flavoursome, wholesome dish with fresh ingredients straight from the markets, via the wok to your plate, literally.

The order and timing of each ingredient is paramount to the success of the flavour.

Wide rice noodles, Marinated chicken breast, Pork belly crackle, Fresh Siu Pak Choy (greens), Eggs, Nga Choy, Spring Onions, Coriander, Vietmaese mint (all optional), and a variety of Asian sauces make this dish what it is.

Please feel welcome to talk/ask the chef questions as he prepares your meal as he will be wok frying the dish in front of you!

There is limited vegetarian style available where Fresh tofu (bean curd) is added instead of chicken.

The dish is separately cooked with oil only and separate utensils.

Jaya Bargwanna

Purveyor of Vibes, Curator of Tales, Maker of Marriages: Ceremonies to get the Party Started
Choosing your official third wheel is a daunting task. You want someone that fits your energy, your values; YOUR VIBE.
That's where I come in - a hitcher that makes you feel comfortable, that understands your priorities and that has YOU at heart.
Over in JBCCHQ (that's my humble dining room table, for those of you playing at home) constructing your ceremony is a collaborative approach.
We chat - I ask you a bunch of weird and wonderful questions and then send you home with some fun, lighthearted questionnaires so that I can delve deep into your relationship vault.
Now, they say there's always three versions of every story; yours, mine and the truth - and your ceremony is a cocktail of all three - blended perfectly into a rom-com-esque tale starring YOU as the main characters.
Spoiler alert: you'll end up madly in love, married and celebrating your happily ever after!
