$1.90 budget meals in Orchard?!

A friend recommended this place to me, and I didn't expect to find such affordable eats in Orchard!

There are so many small dishes to choose from -around 60 kinds-and they update the menu every day.

I tried the Mei Cai Braised Pork, Red-Braised Potato Chicken, and Minced Meat Eggplant & Green Beans-all really tasty.

Some small dishes start at just $1.90, like

minced meat steamed egg, spicy-sour cabbage, and century egg tofu.

Plus, for $1 you can refill white rice or millet porridge unlimited times-so good for a budget-friendly meal.

Honestly, even though it's super affordable, every dish has a generous portion.

Every dish I tried was flavorful and really hit the spot.

Definitely a hidden gem if you're around Orchard and don't want to spend a fortune.

... Read moreIf you're exploring affordable dining options in Orchard, ZhengShiShang Hunan Cuisine is a must-visit. It's amazing how each small dish, even at just $1.90, offers generous portions that really satisfy your hunger. Besides the popular Mei Cai Braised Pork and Red-Braised Potato Chicken, there are many non-spicy choices suitable for those who prefer milder flavors. One of my favorite parts was the unlimited white rice and millet porridge refill for only $1 — it’s great for stretching your meal without extra cost. The restaurant’s vibe with rows of small bowls ready to pick lets you customize your meal just the way you like it, making it a practical choice for quick lunches or casual dinners. The quality of the dishes reflects traditional home cooking, with large cuts of meat and well-balanced seasonings. Despite being a budget spot, it definitely doesn’t skimp on taste or portion size. Located on Level 5 at 313@Somerset, the place is easy to find and perfect for workers and shoppers in Orchard who want delicious Hunan cuisine without breaking the bank. Plus, the daily changing menu keeps things exciting for repeat visits.
