Loved the aromatic smokiness the moment the claypot rice landed with proper wok hei that clings to the rice and lingers in the air. The rice is cooked fresh in the claypot so we get that comforting char at the bottom (though I was hoping for more 锅巴). Chicken is tender, lap cheong has that sweet-savoury bounce and they’re generous with the salted fish.

The veg added a nice crunch, simple but effective in breaking up the heavier flavours. The sambal belachan is damn shiok. Spicy, bold and just the right kind of punch to cut through the richness. It ties everything together with a fiery kick that lingers beautifully. Medium portion feeds 2 pax comfortably. Worth the wait if you are craving something smoky and satisfying 》$18.80/Medium
