Claypot rice doused in dark soy sauce, topped with chunks of chicken, bacon bits, salted fish, lap cheong (Chinese sausage) and vegetables. The chicken is tender and soft and the charred rice packs a punch of smoky flavour that makes it so satisfying. The generous serving of steamed meat patty with preserved vegetables is tender on each bite and light on flavours. The soup was hearty and flavourful with sweet radish and a fair amount of pork ribs.

chanced upon this coffeeshop next to Beo market. their small portion certainly isnt small. I could barely finish this for breakfast. theres an option of curry or clear gooey sauce and I went for the latter. its not super flavourful, but the star has got to be those supee crispy air fried tofu strips - its even layered much like a crepe cake for added texture.
Said to be whipped up by an ex Din Tai Fung chef, Chef Wang's creations feature a white fried rice with a chopped up crispy cutlet on top. I quite liked the pork but felt that the rice really lacked flavour! I tried adding their fried dried chili in but even the chili wasn't salty.
With an upgrade of both duck and chicken, the bill came up to more than the average hawker lunch but was worth it if you're feeling high SES that day. The meats were all very tender and the rice full of smokey, crusty bits.
I wasn't hungry so I got a small-sized portion. It was still reasonable for the price. Yes it wasn't a lot of meat but boy was the sauce flavourful! The kuay teow was also so soft that I slurped every strand down.
