Hainanese Scissors Curry Rice

This Hainanese Scissors Curry Rice is one of the popular stalls in Telok Blangah Drive that attracts a lengthy queue during peak hours. Many times when I visited the place, we were contemplating if to order their food as many of the dishes were already low on quantity. 

Just this time off, the curious me decided to give it a try even though the dishes left were not of too many choices. To my surprise, the lady who is taking the order was friendly and easy-going, my orders were quickly taken and dishes were placed on individual plates.

We ordered 5 dishes with 2 plates of rice and were given some Belachan chilli. The texture of the rice was better than the last Hainanese Scissors Curry Rice we had for it was firm and was drenched with a mix of curry as well as braised gravy.

The Braised Pork belly was thinly sliced and the flavours were adequate to pair along with our plate of rice.

Braised Meat - $1.50 / Pax

The taste was distinctive and packed with hints of herbal taste.

Pork Chop is always my staple dish to order whenever it comes to Hainanese Curry Rice. The pork chop was thin and breaded on both sides.

In terms of texture, it was good and it has a little peppery taste which makes this side dish perfect even having this as a snack alone.

Another dish that I will not miss out on will be the braised vegetables. It was braised to soften and comes with a sweet-tasting gravy. 

Braised Vegetables - $0.80 / Pax

The fried eggs on the shelves were already running low and the lady has to multitask in taking orders and at the same time replenishing the eggs.

We literally order the items that they have on the shelves and we even had these french beans with minced meat. It was not quite common we have this dish from the Hainanese food stall but I would say its pretty tasty too.

For the price that we are paying, this Hainanese Scissors Curry Rice is competitive and worth the amount paid. Even though its from a Hawker, the way that they rendered the service was above average.
