Hong Seng Curry Rice @ Redhill

[TerrexLee]

Sited at Redhill Food Centre ever since opening in 1995, Hong Seng Curry Rice (鴻森咖喱飯) sells just traditional Hainanese curry rice, still its customers might find themselves agonizing over what to eat on account they could choose from a heady selection of twenty odd economically priced sides including Hainanese pork chop ($1/portion), braised pig trotters ($3-$5/portion), boneless curry chicken ($2/portion), Dong Po pork ($2.50/portion), prawn fritters ($2/portion), sardine fish ($2/portion) and sambal ikan bilis ($0.70/portion).

Interesting POI: third generation hawker Alex Lim Jia Han (who is Hong Seng founder's grandson btw) takes full charge these days, having earned his stripes through a most punishing 3-month apprenticeship completed eons ago under both father and uncle whilst slaving in the proverbial trenches to grasp firsthand the inner machinations of the family business. Original Redhill stall aside, Hong Seng also operates standalone subsidiaries @ Singapore Management University (SMU) and Jalan Bukit Merah.

I used to live in Redhill Lane and I ate there quite often. I would rate his stall 6 out of 10. Good variety of dishes but not something to die for as Mr Seetoh would say in his makan sutra.

Nothing like the original Scissors rice at Kitchener Rd. Tried so many. All not so shiok shiok. So still go back to them.

Ate this months back, it was good, not great. Besides the photo does look appetizing IMO, could the food really turn out that lousy?

How about the one at Tanglin Halt? Always a long queue in the photos.
