For a healthy and satisfying lunch, try the vegetarian Thunder Tea Rice ($6) from this stall in Bukit Timah Food Market and Food Centre. We hear the owner's a karaoke fan who's not at all shy about breaking out into a tune! Topped with a medley of chopped greens, peanuts, preserved radish (chye poh) and peanuts, this lei cha fan is so full of flavour, you likely wouldn't be missing the dried shrimp! Listen to Burpple Tastemaker Fabian Poon's advice to go easy on the rice, as the addition of red beans in the mix will fill you up.
Avg price: $6 per person
