Besides the popular chicken rice options, I found the variety of rice offered here truly impressive — from the classic fragrant rice to fragrant basmati, and even premium Japanese Niigata Koshihikari rice usually reserved for sushi, giving you a unique dining experience. What really stood out to me were the zi char offerings. The curry fish head came in a flavorful, aromatic gravy with tender fish and fresh vegetables soaking up all the goodness — truly comforting and satisfying. Another highlight was the chilli soft shell crab coated in salted egg sauce; the crispy exterior combined with a soft interior mantou made a perfect pairing to enjoy every bit of the rich sauce. If you’re looking for a sweet ending, the Coconut Chendol Bliss is a must-try — creamy, sweet, and refreshing, it was the ideal complement to the savory feast. This spot is really convenient too, located at Takashimaya B2-36A, Orchard Road, open from 11am to 9pm on weekdays and 10:30am to 9:30pm on weekends. It’s a perfect place when your family craves different favorites under one roof.
