VERDICT
WILL: Abbey is always telling me that I bring happiness in him. Eeee, sweet! He knew that one thing that makes me happy is a tasty and nutritious food. 

So here you go..Lemon Rice with Chicken Chop. 

Lemon Rice is not that sour as you think, it is just a hint of it. Add up the mustard seed and curry rice, whew, and it bombastic aroma and flavour. 

Abbey partnered this yummy Indian rice with boneless chicken chop. Crispy and the coating is savory. 

~ Are you aware that Abbey deboned the chicken meat himself? Yep! Talented husband! Haha ~

ABBEY: I saw Cheers Cut in social media and I was amazed how big the chicken chop is. For SGD8.90 you can get a huge chop of chicken fried to crispiness and topped with your sauce. I chose wasabi mayo and it went well with the chicken. 

They offer free soup but need to pay SGD 1.60 more for the rice. Same taste with other fried chicken but only the size differs.

WILL: After vising some of Official Merlions we dined at a Taiwanese cuisine food stall in Food Republic, the Cheers Cut. 

Abbey excitedly ordered the chicken chop and I went for their signature braised pork rice ($5.90). Well, it is braised so the sauce was camerilized that brought a sweet flavour to it. This dish lit up my brain and reminds me of Chowking (conglomerate of Jollibee). The not so good is, it has a small portion not appropriately balanced with the volume of the rice. 

If you are in Orchard Area, you can head to this hawker stall before your movie starts at Shaw Lido Orchard.

ABBEY: Our first NEM meetup is at Penang Place (Suntec). I tried their fried rice set. It comes with crispy fried chicken wing, slices of cucumber, baby tomatoes, and pickled carrot, cucumber, ginger and radish. 

The rice is a whole meal in itself. It has shrimps, egg, and vegetables. All the elements in my plate are complementing each other. I enjoyed the meal.

WILL: It's a meetup! NEMSG meets NEMPH! Wohoo! We celebrated over food at Penang Place at Suntec City. 

I went for Asam Laksa. This taste is pretty near on the the one we ate at Kuala Lumpur. The aroma of delectable fish sauce heightens the taste of its thick soup. Yum! Noodles were firm and not overcooked. 

If a bowl is not enough for you? They are offering a buffet.
