Hasan Rabit & Hawa, Simpang Bedok

I fancied having a Nasi Briyani (again :)) and was told by my JJCM kaki that Hasan Rabit has a new outlet in Simpang Bedok.

We head there and ordered Briyani.  They served it in a huge plate for four people ($22).  I must say it's excellent.  The rice wasn't oily and the spices with the lamb was super tasty.  It was good enough to have it on it's own.  The Dalca gravy that came with it was a disappointment though.  It was very average even bordering on being tasteless.  Fortunately, the rice was fabulous so there was no need for the Dalca.  The lamb was tender and fell off the bone.  It was delicious!  I do think it's more of a Nasi Minyak than Nasi Briyani.  Regardless, I thought it was worth my visit here.  To be honest, I am not very big on Simpang Bedok as I find it chaotic and seems to have loads of men around.

We also ordered the You Tiao ($8) from Hawa.  It was oily and there was hardly any squid filling in it.  It was almost hollow inside.  I will definitely not have this here ever.

Kampung Chai Chee Seafood Restaurant

Had about an hour just to grab a quick lunch somewhere and I drove pass this place along New Upper Changi Road. As I was in a bit of a rush, I didn't order the seafood but instead ordered a few easy dishes.

The Chicken Rice was so so, the sauce for the roasted chicken was nice but I find the rice slightly lacking in taste. The Mee Upeh that I ordered has loads of ingredients but it could do with a little more salt and tastier stock as I find it a bit bland. The Tahu Telur was really good according to my friend, the tofu was soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. I must say the "you tiao" or sotong char kway was really really good. It was tasty, superbly crispy and really flavourful. I think it's the best dish that I ordered here.
