The claypot rice was really smoky and flavourful, full of crisp burnt bits, and smelling of the charcoal fire. It came chock full with Chinese sausage, chicken and salted fish. The chicken was really nicely flavoured and tasted almost barbecued, sweet and savoury at the same time. The only drawback was that the rice was a bit dry. But this is a claypot rice that I will remember and crave for.
The perpetual, snaking queue outside Hougang Hainanese Curry Rice stall at Kovan Food Centre has long attracted my attention and while i saw it being featured on a TV programme; i knew it's time for me to check it out!
