Ming Kee Chicken Rice & Porridge @ Bishan


Queue starts as early as 5:30 pm. I waiting for almost 30 min just only with about 12 person in front of me. As for queuing chicken rice, I find it frustrated queuing for that long. That's unacceptable for me.

The queue gets even more crazy after 6pm. There were at least like 30 over people in the queue. The line went all the way till the start of the coffee shop. I have no idea why these people queue.

This is what I get for my set. Standard chicken rice ($3.50) with vegetable ($3). I didn't get the beansprout which cost $2. If I remember, these used to be cheaper. The chicken was a bit cold but it was okay, above average taste and the vegetable was not very hard. Its quite crunchy compare to others.

What I didn't like :

  • The queue where the servers take their time doing it that causes the jam.
  • The chicken skin has a harden jelly oil (I guess?) sticking on it which I didn't like it. I find it gross.

They have taken out porridge from the menu which seems to be not so popular and more work.

Location : 511 Bishan Street 13.
Signature : The white chicken rice.
Total Damage :~$3.50 + 3

Overall : 3/5. I will not go back again unless the queue is less than 5.

Poulet @ Raffles City



Ambience : Noise can get a bit loud during dinner. Best is to come around 6.30pm.

Onion Soup : Taste wise is strong for onion lovers but for me I don't like the bread crumbs.

Halibut En Papillote : Served in a wrapped parchment paper. Small portion but worth to try.

Ginger Lemonade : Not easy to find a good lemonade but this one taste great. Not diluted. 
Signature : Poulet Roti with Mushroom Chardonnay Sauce. Great Sauce and tender chicken. Must try for chicken lover!



Total Damage : $50++~
Overall : 4/5. A restaurant I would like to visit again to try other of its Rotisserie menu.

The Tiramisu Hero


Ambience : Still okay. Everything is well litted up and it can get quite busy during lunch time.
Aglio Olio - Quite normal but better than average at least.


Baked Cheesy Chicken - worth the try






Signature : Tiramisu. Well for me it look nice but then not the best tiramisu I had. There is very little or no alcohol taste when I tried.

Additional Special :You can ask the waiter to clean the bottle for you if you want it as a souvenir.

Total Damage :~$50
Overall : I can say its worth the try but not the one you want to come back for it again.
