Today's shortlist
Same picks for everyone today. New order after Singapore midnight.
Thai Green Curry
Coconut-rich, herb-fragrant, gentle heat building up sneakily. Eggplant and chicken in a green dream.
Ayam Penyet
Smashed fried chicken, fiery sambal, crispy bits, rice. Sambal lovers, assemble.
Butter Chicken
Velvety tomato-cream curry, smoky tandoor chicken, naan for mopping. The dish that turned a generation into curry lovers.
Braised Duck Rice
Herbal braised duck, yam rice, that garlicky chilli-vinegar. Teochew comfort, full stop.
Chilli Crab
Sweet-savoury-spicy gravy you mop up with fried mantou. The dish we show off to tourists.
Cai Png (Mixed Rice)
Point-and-scoop paradise: three dishes on rice for less than a coffee. Best value in Singapore, hands down.
Mango Sticky Rice
Ripe mango draped over warm glutinous rice, sweet coconut milk poured over. Tropical perfection in three ingredients.
Tom Yum Soup
Lemongrass, kaffir lime, galangal, prawns -- sour and spicy like the best drama you ever watched.
