Fried rice royalty

Been seeing this place all over social media for a while now so I made a trip to Golden Mile Tower to see what the hype was about.

I headed down on a Friday evening and luckily I managed to order before a large number of people swarmed the tiny premises. This place is POPULAR. Luckily they have more seating available in the atrium.

They offer a variety of mouthwatering flavours for fried rice: egg, X.O., mala and tom yum. I was so torn on what to order but I went with X.O. which was the most “premium” going at $7.80. I was torn further as they also offer two different proteins, pork cutlet and shrimp. Pork cutlet for me please.

The closest comparison would be Din Tai Fung’s pork fried rice but definitely a more wallet-friendly version. The fried rice was fragrant, the pork was nicely charred and uniformly cooked. I added tobiko for $1 that I mixed in my rice for a wonderful crunch. Adding their homemade chili oil is also a must.

Overall, it was really shiok. I wish I had ordered more when I had the chance. However, I can’t imagine waiting for half an hour for a table or food which most folks did that evening. Check out this place during off peak hours if you can. And also try the mala flavour. It’s even better!
