Eating claypot rice requires patience as the staff has mentioned to us that there are only a limited number of charcoal stoves in the kitchen and each claypot rice requires near to 30 minutes of cooking time. We were fortunate that day to get a table almost immediately when we were there as our previous attempts to dine there did not materialised due to the long queuing time just for an empty table. Alternatively, you can also pre order your claypot rice orders and collect them for takeaways or prior to dining in.
At Geylang Claypot Rice, besides their Classic Claypot Rice (Pictured is the $16 portion for 1-2 pax), you can order a host of other zichar dishes from seafood to tofu, vegetables, meat and other rice/noodle dishes. Their signature claypot rice comes in a huge portion for the $16 portion with generous amounts of chicken chunks and variety of sliced Chinese sausages and waxed meat in it, giving it a nice aroma and flavour. I would wish for more salted fish added to it to give it more umami-ness and will definitely top up there is an option for it. Otherwise, good location, comfortable air conditioned environment and value for money.
