update

no, la grand tournee gastronomique is not dead and buried, merely unchronicled. in brief, i've explored:

hougang - mostly in search of soon kway, which proved elusive. ended up eating pig organ soup in some mcmall.
zion road for famous char kway teow
club street - anyone been to windows? very excited about their sandwiches - tasty and quite affordable considering. i had the salt beef because they were out of ox tongue when i went, so another trip is in order. is this near enough to your workplace, yen?
