Came across an article from Eatbook on Facebook last night, introducing "8 Western Food Stalls At Kopitiams Or Hawker Centres With Huge Portions Under $7". Omg, can you believe it? Under $7, in huge portions lehs. What's the first thing to do? Of course is send the link to my lovely Hub. Due to Hub end work at 8pm, we chose FAT MONKEYS as our first try-out!!
Fat Monkeys at Kovan
After a night of drooling, here we are, together with Yk n Calliz~ How can I missed out my foodaholic buddy, miss Calliz? Got food to eat or try, we, foodaholic will definitely be there on time. Hahahaha. 4 of us reached there at about 8.40pm and hoped to try their Fried Mac & Cheese, Da Bomb and Chicken Chop. Sadly, we were told that all chicken and beef items were not available, we were pretty disappointed about it. But fortunately, Pork Chop was still available and there's 6 types of sauces to choose:
Mushroom Ragout
Black Pepper
Brown Sauce
Barbeque
Garlic Fever
Chilli Crab

Pork Chop w Black Pepper Sauce
After 15 min or so, we received our Pork Chop w Black Pepper Sauce ($6.80 nett) which came with whole heap of fries and salad greens tossed in Sesame dressing. We dug into it and all of us were fascinated by the unexpected succulent pork chop. Honestly, I don't really like pork chop but I love this! Ultimate yummylicious!
Pork Chop w Chili Crab Sauce
Without hesitation, we placed another order, Pork Chop w Chili Crab Sauce ($6.80 nett). The sweet and tangy chili crab sauce that contained real crab meat! Real crab meat and it costed less than $7! It would be even tastier if they can thicken the chili crab sauce. Nevertheless, it is still tasty and worth every dollar spent at Fat Monkeys!
You don't have to cook fancy or complicated masterpieces - just good food from fresh ingredients

I believe that Fat Monkeys is doing as well as the quote says. A humble hawker food stall located along Upper Serangoon Road and just a few minutes walk from Kovan MRT Station that offers cafe standard Western cuisine at affordable prices. Undoubtedly, you will be astonished by this hidden gem which is situated at the back of the same kopitiam as the well-known Ponggol Nasi Lemak Centre. We will definitely be back to try out other dishes that we missed out today.
