Classic mee rebus with chicken drumstick ($5) and begedil (70c). My favourite combo.

briyani here is legendary and a lot better than 90% of places in little india, it's surprising it's still not commonly known. $5.50 for a generous portion. the rojak here is amazing too.

Update: Briyani for $6

Talk about generous. The Chicken Drumstick Mee Soto ($5) here comes served with a whole, gigantic chicken leg that's tender to the bite. However, it is the flavourful broth that won our Burpple Tastemakers over. According to Tastemaker Vanessa Kou, it is "warm, clear and spice-enhanced, and so comforting to slurp on". Bookmark this for rainy days. As Tastemaker Jean Kao says, "this hearty bowl can definitely lift your fowl mood when served on a cold wet day". While you're here, check out their other claim to fame, the Power Mee Reebus ($3.80). Tastemaker Ice Blossom loves how the noodles are not soggy, the generous toppings of fried red onions and green chilli, and the gravy that she declares is "pure shiok-ness".
Avg price: $5 per person
