Two Chefs Eating Place was a nice find for a casual Zi Char meal. For the price, I felt the dishes were very satisfying, especially the enoki tofu, which had a really interesting twist. The honey chicken also stood out for me. It’s the kind of spot I’d happily return to when I’m in the mood for something comforting and reasonably priced.

Surrounded by HDB blocks near Commonwealth MRT, about a 10 minute walk. The butter pork ribs are really tasty , the enoki mushroom with beancurd is light and comforting, a nice balance to the meal. The XO san lau hor fun is the highlight for me, good wok hei, savoury. Prices are very wallet-friendly too — two of us ate for just $29.

ordered 5 dishes. 1) milk powder pork ribs - interesting.. first time trying and i kinda like it but if you don’t have a sweet tooth, can skip this. 2) coffee pork ribs - coffee smell is strong but not much coffee taste, my 6yo son enjoyed it. pork ribs are not fatty but not too dry and hard as well. 3) garlic kailan (?) - taste ok but it’s a rather small plate. 4) enoki beancurd - tastes ok but pretty disappointed with the portion - 6 small rectangular pieces of beancurd and perhaps only 1/3 of a packet of enoki in those typical hot plate beancurd style of gravy. 5) cereal prawn - kind auntie asked if we prefer it to be deshelled which we happily agreed because #wearelazy. also taste mediocre, nothing fantastic. 🤑 total: $74 for 3A2C. the most disappointing thing was that we came here specially for cockles yet…. not available today 🙃🙂 oh well better luck next time (if there’s any, LOL) oh if anything, i must commend ok the speed the dishes were served. all except the coffee ribs which were added on last came within 10min from ordering ?!!!? at 7.10PM!! 👏 at least we weren’t hangry 😌

Visited Two Chefs Eating Place at Commonwealth and it absolutely lived up to its reputation for honest, flavourful zi char. We ordered their famous coffee ribs and the XO fish slice hor fun, and both dishes were standout favourites. The coffee ribs were fragrant the moment they arrived at the table, a perfect balance of sweet, smoky, and slightly bitter notes from the coffee coating. The meat was tender and came off the bone easily, with a caramelised glaze that made every bite addictive. It’s clear why this is their signature dish; it’s unique yet comforting. The XO fish slice hor fun was equally impressive. The wok hei was strong, the hor fun silky, and the XO sauce added a beautiful depth without overpowering the dish. The fish slices were fresh, thick, and perfectly cooked, complementing the savoury gravy so well. My only gripe is the fish has a 土味. It’s one of those dishes that feels simple but is executed with real skill. Service was fast and efficient even though the place was busy, and the overall experience felt very local, lively, and satisfying. Prices are reasonable for the quality and portions. If you’re looking for classic zi char with standout flavours, Two Chefs at Commonwealth is definitely worth the trip. I’ll be back!

Definitely one of the better Tze Char places around. All the more better due to relatively inexpensive pricing likely from the non-loading of heavy rental from evil landlords. I hadn't been back here for a long time; since before they opened the SinMin branch. Still good. My minor grumble (because I'm grumpy) is the Si Hum being served in a plastic container. 2nd minor grumble is that the Har Cheong Gai flavour is less intense than I recall it. Butter pork ribs and cereal prawns all good. Beer price is reasonable too! Never did ask whether BYO is acceptable here. Note: Cash, CDC Vouchers only. No PayNow.
