Let’s get it out of the way – if you want beautiful pictures of pretty foods, go to like any of the hundred cafes (an exaggeration, but probably not by that much) in the area. This place is for those who just want to eat some good shit.

The rice? Honestly, a little forgettable. But you aren’t here for rice, you’re here because of the sio bak. Surprisingly light, deliciously crisp and perfectly roasted, it manages to hit all the right notes at once. You won’t get that greasy, gelak feeling from the meat here; if anything, you’ll just want to order a second plate.

The store itself is standard for hawker centres and pretty easy to identify with the long queue. I’d rec the sio bak (obviously) for the first time you come here, but do consider giving its other offerings a try as well; they are, after all, roast specialists. I’ve had the duck and it was pretty solid too.
