#chilli flakes

It's great to have such a good selection of chillis from one source, and handy that they're all in matching jars so they'll fit on the same shelf.

However, as I discovered earlier today, more than a cursory glance at the label is a sound notion, because while those jars may be all the same, the contents - and the effect of the contents...

Are Not The Same At All.

Spaghetti Aglio e Olio

This small portion of the Pandan Chicken (S$8.90) came with just four pieces of deep-fried pandan leaf wrapped boneless chicken chunk. While the chicken was fragrant and succulent, the price is on the high side.

The next dish is Phat Thai (S$5.90), a stir-fried rice noodle dish commonly served as a street food in Thailand. The flavours of this dish are centered around a sweet-savory fusion. Salty, nutty with that slightly sweet sauce. The chilli flakes on the side added a layer of spiciness to it.

Pineapple Fried Rice (S$5.90) came with pork floss heaped on top. The rice is fried with a little curry powder to give it that yellow hue and came with chunks of pineapple and prawns in it. The savoury floss is mixed well into the rice before consuming it.

When I ordered this Mango Sticky Rice (S$5.90), the menu at the stall was showing this tricolor dessert. Upon getting the dish, it is just plain coloured glutinous rice smothered in savoury coconut milk on the salty end. I went back to the staff and was told they are not making the coloured version. :( At the very least they could do is to change that misleading image on the menu so customers are not duped into ordering it.
