Lee Lai Jiak 李来甲 @ Tiong Bahru Plaza

Chanced upon this place as we were wandering around Tiong Bahru Plaza for a place to have our dinner. It's been so long since I came back to this mall. Has it been over 10 years? I guessed so.

The place looked spacious and bright, so decided to park our butts there and to enjoy milk tea with our food. The physical menu is at the counter, or one could just scan the QR code at each of the table to peruse what to eat and to order as well. Payment at the counter after your meal. Send the order for food and drinks via the application and staff will bring it to your table once it is ready.

Scan first, eat later

Our food arrive pretty quickly. Especially the braised minced pork rice (卤肉饭). Super fast, within 5 minutes after we ordered.

Braised Minced Pork Rice @$8.80

Pig Intestine Mee Sua @$9.80

I'd recommend the lu rou fan (braised minced pork rice) instead of the pig intestine mee sua although I loved the intestines. The rice dish looked better and tasted better. Plus, it is more filling than the mee sua which was a tad too much liquid ratio when compared to the mee sua.

Flavour wise, both are nice. Loved the pickles in the rice.

Salt and Pepper Chicken @$9.80

I felt that the salt and pepper chicken was too little, for the price paid. It was quite funny to see this plate with a smattering of small pieces of chicken whereas the staff brought out a plate of gorgeous large piece of golden fried cutlet to the table next to us. Am guessing that must be the Golden Kala Chicken Thigh or Chicken Chop? No idea.

To be fair, the salt and pepper chicken was tasty. Good as a beer snack.

Milk Tea @$4.80

I liked the milk tea. Mild and not too sweet yet, it has that distinct tea fragrance. Tried their Wintermelon Milk Tea too. It was much sweeter than the milk tea. Otherwise, nice flavour and made me think of Fengjia Night Market

Staff are nice.
