Chicken meesua for $5.80. Lots of shredded chicken hidden below. Chilli is self service at the counter. Located at foodcourt in PLQ. No GST or sc. could be tastier but not bad! Tried their fried chicken ($6.80) and they fry and seasoned it in the spot
Very affordable rice bowl with 1 for 1 deal! ($6.80 for 2). Food was not bad for the price, chicken cutlet quite flavourful and portion was just nice for me.
@thevoice.sg Pork Rib + Braised Pork Bento Set ($8.80 nett) is a tale of two halves. One half is decent, and the other is considerably less so. On paper, this mashup sounded like a world beater. Lu rou fan enhanced with pork ribs? Oh boy, it’s protein paradise!⠀
⠀
In practice, however, this bento which is really just a rice bowl was far from being what it could’ve & should’ve been. The lu rou (braised pork belly) is braised in a soy based stock, fully inheriting the umami from the stock. It’s shredded into small ribbons, and is ladled over the bed of white rice. While it was decently delicious, there wasn’t quite enough lu rou to fully satisfy.⠀
⠀
The pork ribs were the lacklustre half. As some of you may have already observed, these little riblets were fried to hell and back. The meat was sufficiently seasoned, so at least the tough overcooked meat has some flavour to it while you attempt to chew through it.⠀
⠀
At least this unfulfilling bowl is only $8.80. An L, sure, but at least it’s a small one.
Only a few mains are available for Burpple Deal:

Ordered:

This was warm and comforting! The meat was soft and easy.
- Chicken Cutlet Rice
Chicken was nice; As compared to Shilin Fried Chicken Cutlet, it has less seasoning, but the texture of the chicken is chunky and not “flattened” like Shilin!
Love the chicken cutlet rice! Lu rou fan was ok
Fairly average Taiwanese food for a food court standard. However with the Burpple Beyond 1-for-1 deal, it’s really a steal - you wouldn’t be able to get such food at half of the $6.80 pricing. Definitely would be my go-to meal if I’m around the area and looking to fill my tummy while saving money.
