curry rice

after i sent my china relatives off (my second nephew & his wife & daughter family of 3pax) at changi airport, i dropped by a primary school classmate’s place near haig road at about 12.45pm.

he tried a new curry rice stall at hoower food court at haig road recently, so he took me there for lunch. this only his second time here.

the coffeeeshop also served zi char & foo chow fishball noodles.

curry rice stall

we ordered from the curry rice stall. there was only 1 person before us, basically no queue.

my friend ordered 4 dishes – curry chicken, curry fish, kong bak & fried egg plant.

curry chicken drumstick

the curry chicken was as good as any curry dish, sweet & tasty.

competent dish certainly.

for my personal preference, i prefer the nonya very lemak type previously at river valley nasi rendang (now closed)

& the nonya curry chicken at sinar pagi nasi padang very good too.

curry fish

the curry fish was very good standard.

curry slightly tangy, fish fresh, firm & sweet.

kong bak

the kong bak (braised belly pork) was the best, really good texture & flavours.

fried egg plant

egg plant also very good, very tasty.

curry rice

for me among the dishes, kong bak was best followed by curry fish, egg plant & curry chicken. but even the curry chicken was pretty good.

my friend said it was S$10 all-in including the 2 rice.

doesn’t sound possible to me at this price, but anyway i will be very happy to go back & check it out again!
