Who else loves the golden crispy scorched crust (guoba)? 🙋‍♀️

Tried the signature dishes from the new stall at Bukit Batok. Founded in 1982 by Uncle Seah, Yuan Yuan Claypot Rice has since expanded.

Made using fragrant rice cooked in homemade slow-boiled chicken stock over charcoal fire. This dish requires a good control of the fire. Ingredients include marinated fresh chicken in hua diao wine, salted fish, lup cheong, and liver sausage. It is served with generous amount of secret homemade black sauce drizzled over. Best enjoyed with the chilli 🔥

Although you won't see Uncle Seah preparing the claypot rice anymore (the trade requires long hours of standing, heavy lifting of claypots and facing extreme heat), his son who is the current owner has been helping out at the store since he was 12. The second gen hawker, Raymond, gave up his full-time job to continue his father's legacy despite the hard work 💪🏻

To continue the legacy even beyond his time, the owner decided to adopt apprentices and the Bukit Batok branch is the first stall open by his apprentice!
