Two Chefs Eating Place: My Unpretentious & Utterly Delicious Zi Char Find in Commonwealth Crescent!

You know how it is, right? You’re on your way to one makan spot, and another catches your eye, whispering promises of deliciousness. I spotted Two Chefs Eating Place – a name that kept popping up in local food circles – and made an immediate mental note: must visit, must visit soon!

Well, my friends, “soon” finally arrived! Just recently, I embarked on my long-awaited culinary adventure to this highly-rated zi char restaurant nestled in the charming Commonwealth Crescent. And let me tell you, my taste buds are still doing a happy dance!

Introduction: Where Tradition Meets Affordability

In the heart of Commonwealth Crescent, nestled among the vibrant tapestry of Singapore’s heartland food scene, sits Two Chefs Eating Place—a zi char establishment that has quietly earned its reputation as a neighborhood favorite. With two outlets across Singapore (Commonwealth Crescent and Sin Ming), this unpretentious eatery has mastered the art of delivering consistently delicious Chinese home-style cooking without the hefty price tag.

For those unfamiliar with zi char culture, it represents the quintessential Singaporean dining experience: communal eating, bold flavors, and dishes cooked to order with the theatrical flair of wok mastery. Two Chefs embodies this tradition while maintaining standards that rival more upscale establishments.

Ambience & Atmosphere: A Tale of Two Spaces

Exterior Charm

From the street, Two Chefs Eating Place presents itself with the authentic, slightly chaotic energy characteristic of traditional coffee shops. Tables and chairs are arranged with organic fluidity rather than rigid precision, creating an inviting, lived-in atmosphere. The outdoor seating captures the essence of al fresco dining Singaporean-style—no pretense, just pure focus on the food.

The shophouse facade blends seamlessly into the neighborhood’s architectural character, with its two-story structure and weathered charm speaking to decades of culinary tradition in this area. The casual exterior might initially appear unassuming, but seasoned food hunters know that such humble appearances often conceal the most remarkable flavors.

Interior Surprise

Step through the entrance, and you’ll discover a pleasant contrast to the exterior’s casual disarray. The interior reveals a surprisingly well-organized space that defies typical coffee shop expectations. Clean, orderly, and meticulously maintained, the dining area showcases a commitment to hygiene that immediately puts diners at ease.

Tables are spotlessly clean—a detail that speaks volumes about operational standards. The space is efficiently laid out to maximize seating while maintaining comfortable spacing between tables. Overhead fans circulate air effectively, while bright lighting ensures visibility without harshness.

Operational Details:

Large rack with clothes pegs (kiaps) for order management during peak hours
Efficient kitchen layout visible from certain seating areas
Air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned sections available
Accommodates groups from 2 to 10+ people comfortably

Atmosphere Rating: 3/5

While Two Chefs excels in cleanliness and functionality, it maintains the straightforward coffee shop aesthetic. Don’t expect Instagram-worthy decor or romantic ambience—this is a place where food takes center stage. The atmosphere is bustling during peak hours, peaceful during off-peak times, and always authentically Singaporean.

Best For:

Family gatherings
Casual business lunches
Weekend brunch with friends
Quick weekday dinners
Large group celebrations

Signature Dishes: The Must-Try Trinity

1. Coffee Pork Ribs – The Star Performer

Price: $12 (Small) | $22 (Medium) | $35 (Large)

This dish represents Two Chefs’ ability to compete with legendary establishments while maintaining accessibility. The coffee pork ribs strike an exquisite balance between sweetness, savouriness, and that distinctive aromatic coffee note that makes this dish so addictive.

What Makes It Special: The ribs arrive at your table glistening with a rich, dark glaze that catches the light beautifully. Each piece is meaty and substantial, with the meat falling off the bone at the slightest pressure. The coffee flavor isn’t overpowering—instead, it provides a subtle, sophisticated undertone that complements the natural sweetness of the pork.

The seasoning demonstrates masterful restraint. While comparable to the famous Keng Eng Kee version, Two Chefs’ interpretation offers a more balanced approach, allowing the quality of the pork to shine through. The exterior develops a slight caramelization during cooking, creating textural contrast against the tender interior.

Perfect Pairing: White rice to soak up the flavorful sauce, or mix with fried rice for an elevated experience.

2. Vegetables with Three Types of Egg – The Comfort Classic

Price: $10 (Small) | $18 (Medium) | $28 (Large)

This dish serves as the ultimate test of a zi char establishment’s capabilities. Two Chefs passes with flying colors, delivering a version that rivals preparations found in high-end Chinese restaurants.

Composition:

Regular chicken eggs (providing structure)
Salted duck eggs (contributing umami depth)
Century eggs (adding complexity and earthy notes)
Seasonal vegetables (typically kai lan, chye sim, or spinach)

The magic lies in the harmony. Each egg type contributes its unique character while the seasoning—a delicate balance of oyster sauce, soy sauce, and white pepper—ties everything together. The vegetables retain their crisp-tender texture, providing freshness against the rich, creamy eggs.

The resulting dish offers layers of flavor: the initial saltiness from salted eggs, followed by the earthy complexity of century eggs, finishing with the clean, familiar taste of fresh eggs. It’s comfort food elevated to art.

Chef’s Tip: Request extra gravy to pour over rice—it transforms plain rice into something special.

3. Dry Fried Mee Hoon – Simple Perfection

Price: $5 (Small) | $10 (Medium) | $16 (Large)

Don’t let the modest price fool you—this dish exemplifies how technical skill elevates humble ingredients. The “dry” style means the mee hoon (rice vermicelli) is cooked without excess moisture, each strand separated and coated with flavor.

Execution Excellence: The wok hei (breath of wok) is present but subtle—a whisper rather than a shout. This delicate smokiness adds depth without overwhelming the dish. Crisp bean sprouts provide textural contrast and freshness, while bits of egg, fish cake, and vegetables create visual and flavor interest throughout.

The portion size is notably generous. Even the “small” serves two comfortably, making this an exceptional value proposition. The seasoning is light yet complex, allowing you to taste each component while maintaining cohesion.

Creative Serving Suggestion: Mix portions with the broth from the Three Egg dish to create an instant, delicious soup version—a trick that demonstrates the versatility of both dishes.

Additional Notable Dishes

Salted Egg Chicken

Price: $14 (Small) | $26 (Medium) | $40 (Large)

The salted egg phenomenon has swept Singapore’s culinary scene, and Two Chefs delivers an exemplary version. Crispy fried chicken pieces are tossed in a creamy, golden salted egg yolk sauce enriched with curry leaves and bird’s eye chilies.

The chicken maintains its crispiness even under the rich coating—a testament to proper frying technique and sauce consistency. The salted egg flavor is pronounced but not overwhelming, with a pleasant balance between salty and umami notes.

Sambal Kang Kong

Price: $8 (Small) | $14 (Medium) | $22 (Large)

This fiery vegetable dish showcases the kitchen’s ability to handle heat. Water spinach (kang kong) is flash-fried with sambal belachan (shrimp paste chili), creating a dish that’s simultaneously spicy, savory, and slightly sweet.

The kang kong retains its characteristic crunch while absorbing the complex flavors of the sambal. Bits of dried shrimp add textural interest and umami depth. This dish pairs perfectly with milder items, providing contrast and excitement to the meal.

Kung Po Chicken

Price: $15 (Small) | $26 (Medium) | $42 (Large)

A Sichuan-inspired classic, Two Chefs’ version balances the traditional trifecta: spicy from dried chilies, sour from vinegar, and sweet from sugar. Tender chicken cubes are stir-fried with roasted peanuts, bell peppers, and dried chilies.

The sauce clings beautifully to each piece, and the peanuts provide crucial textural contrast. The heat level is moderate and builds gradually, making it accessible to those who aren’t extreme spice enthusiasts.

Moonlight Hor Fun

Price: $10 (Small) | $18 (Medium) | $28 (Large)

This visually striking dish features silky flat rice noodles bathed in a pale, egg-white-based gravy studded with seafood and vegetables. The name comes from the dish’s ethereal, moonlight-like appearance.

The gravy is light yet flavorful, with a velvety texture from beaten egg whites. Fresh prawns, squid, and fish slices provide substance, while the hor fun absorbs the delicate sauce perfectly. It’s comfort food with elegance.

Claypot Tofu

Price: $12 (Small) | $22 (Medium) | $35 (Large)

Arriving sizzling in a traditional claypot, this dish features silky tofu cubes braised with minced pork, mushrooms, and vegetables in a savory brown sauce. The claypot retains heat beautifully, keeping the dish hot throughout your meal.

The tofu contrasts beautifully between its silken interior and slightly crusted exterior where it touches the hot claypot. The sauce is rich with oyster sauce and dark soy, creating deep umami notes.

Recipe Recreation: Coffee Pork Ribs

For those inspired to recreate Two Chefs’ signature dish at home, here’s a detailed recipe that captures the essence of their coffee pork ribs.

Ingredients (Serves 4-6)

For the Ribs:

1 kg pork ribs, cut into individual pieces
2 tablespoons instant coffee powder
3 tablespoons dark soy sauce
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
4 cloves garlic, minced
1-inch ginger, minced
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
1 teaspoon five-spice powder
½ teaspoon white pepper
2 tablespoons corn starch
4 cups water
3 tablespoons cooking oil
2 stalks spring onions, chopped (garnish)
Toasted sesame seeds (garnish)

Cooking Instructions

Step 1: Marinate the Ribs (30 minutes)

In a large bowl, combine pork ribs with 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce, 1 tablespoon light soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, minced garlic, minced ginger, five-spice powder, and white pepper. Mix thoroughly, ensuring each rib piece is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor).

Step 2: Prepare the Coffee Sauce

In a separate bowl, dissolve instant coffee powder in 1 cup of warm water. Add the remaining dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, and oyster sauce. Stir until sugar is completely dissolved. This forms your signature coffee glaze.

Step 3: Initial Frying

Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove ribs from marinade (reserve marinade) and coat lightly with corn starch. Fry ribs in batches until golden brown on all sides, approximately 3-4 minutes per batch. Remove and set aside.

Step 4: Braising

In the same wok, pour in the coffee sauce mixture and the reserved marinade. Add 3 cups of water and bring to a boil. Return the fried ribs to the wok, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 35-40 minutes, stirring occasionally. The ribs should be tender, and the sauce should reduce by half.

Step 5: Final Glaze

Remove lid and increase heat to medium-high. Continue cooking uncovered for 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens into a glossy glaze that coats the ribs. The sauce should cling to the meat rather than pool at the bottom.

Step 6: Finishing Touches

Once the glaze reaches desired consistency (it should be syrupy but not burnt), remove from heat. Transfer to serving plate, garnish with chopped spring onions and sesame seeds.

Chef’s Notes:

The coffee should be noticeable but not dominant. Adjust coffee powder to taste.
Don’t skip the initial frying—it creates texture and prevents ribs from falling apart during braising.
If sauce becomes too thick, add water in small increments.
For deeper coffee flavor, use brewed espresso instead of instant coffee.

Recipe: Vegetables with Three Types of Egg

Ingredients (Serves 4)

Main Ingredients:

300g leafy green vegetables (kai lan, spinach, or chye sim)
3 regular chicken eggs
2 salted duck eggs
2 century eggs
3 cloves garlic, minced
1-inch ginger, julienned
2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
2 tablespoons cooking oil

Seasoning:

2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
½ teaspoon white pepper
1 tablespoon corn starch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
Salt to taste

Cooking Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Eggs

Crack regular chicken eggs into a bowl and beat lightly. Cut salted duck eggs and century eggs into small wedges or chunks. Set aside separately.

Step 2: Prepare Vegetables

Wash vegetables thoroughly. If using kai lan or chye sim, cut into 3-inch sections, separating stems from leaves. Stems will cook first as they require more time.

Step 3: Create the Base

Heat oil in a wok over medium heat. Add minced garlic and ginger, stirring until fragrant (about 30 seconds). Be careful not to burn.

Step 4: Build the Egg Layer

Pour in chicken stock and bring to a gentle simmer. Add salted egg pieces first, allowing them to infuse the broth for 2 minutes. Then add century egg pieces and simmer for another minute.

Step 5: Add Vegetables

Add vegetable stems to the wok, cooking for 2 minutes. Then add leaves and cook for another 1-2 minutes until just wilted but still vibrant green.

Step 6: Season and Bind

Add oyster sauce, light soy sauce, sugar, and white pepper. Stir gently to combine. Slowly drizzle in beaten chicken eggs while stirring continuously—they’ll form delicate ribbons throughout the dish.

Step 7: Thicken

Give the corn starch mixture a quick stir and pour into the wok while stirring continuously. The sauce w

ill thicken within 30 seconds to a silky, coating consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt if needed.

Step 8: Serve

Transfer to a deep serving bowl immediately. The dish should be saucy with visible egg pieces and vibrant green vegetables.

Tips for Success:

Don’t overcook vegetables—they should retain some bite
The three eggs should be distinguishable in taste and appearance
Adjust sauce thickness to preference—add more stock for soupier version
Serve hot with plenty of steamed rice
