I am a fan of the curry-o here. Long queues are always attended to quickly because of the fast service. I can grab a hot piping snack here (that's why I love Old Chang Kee. The snacks are all served warm) and make my way home in less than 5 minutes smile

Hotpot on a conveyor belt! Smile Jul 03, 2010   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Singaporean | Restaurant | Steamboat/Hot Pot

I had the signature mushroom soup. It was a versatile soup base and went well with all the fresh ingredients that I grabbed from the conveyor belt. However, my favourite ingredients which was the Sliced Wagyu Beef and Salmon Belly had to be ordered from the Premium Items section.

Unlike the conventional hotpot elsewhere where everyone shares one large pot, everyone gets an individually controllable stove at Kichi Kichi. For greedy eaters like me, I also liked that Kichi Kichi offers the all-you-can-eat concept. I think the layout of the restaurant is pretty cool too. Food was decent. Service was good. Efficient staff cleared the empty plates regularly and were prompt to refill the soup.

Oh they actually have eight sauces to suit all tastes but my favourite was theChilli Padi with Vinegar, Kichi Kichi Sesame Sauce and Chilli Chin Chalok. Goes well with the beef and seafood.

Anyway my gf was having fun with the ‘Secret Recipes’ plates cruising the conveyor belt and I became her guinea pig as usual. Her creations turned ok. Thank goodness. Overall we had a fun dining experience at Kichi Kichi.

Smooth steamed chicken rice OK Jul 03, 2010

Categories : Hainanese | Coffeeshop | Chicken Rice

This restaurant used to be located at Tanglin halt area before moving to Clementi. Great because it is now nearer to the west! Hehe Went there for lunch with my gf and she was raving about the Fried Ngor Hiang there. I have to agree with her. It's crispy and had a good bite/flavour. It went really well with mayonnaise. Anyway the smooth steamed chicken was ok though the rice was a tad oily.

Pretty Good Peppery Pork Ribs Smile Jun 21, 2010

You like peppery Bak Kut Teh? You'll probably enjoy dining here. The Bak Kut Teh broth was thickly flavoured by pepper. I liked it. Also liked that the staff kept refilling the soup without even being asked to. Good service. smile

Though I think the ribs are decent, my girlfriend who is a picky eater said that the meat was kinda tough. it didn't came off in a bite. Nonetheless, we both agreed that the pork ribs weren't too lean and it was a value-for-money meal. Have fun soaking the youtiao into the piquant soup of spices or peppers.
