A revamp to bring in the masses

I've been to this restaurant only once before a long time ago and did not return due to its high prices although from what I recall, the food was not bad. Last week, they re-opened with a new name, Spice Canteen. I was curious and seeing that there are now items sold at a more affordable range, I decided to give the place a try again.

I proceeded to order a bowl of Nyonya laksa ($4.80). The presentation was done well. The gravy was pretty good, quite spicy and thick. Being Nyonya laksa, I tasted a tinge of sour in their laksa gravy. Not bad, although personally I prefer the local version of laksa with lots of dried shrimp. The nyonya version here does not have dried shrimp, though it had fresh prawns.

A friend ordered their nasi lemak ($4.80) and added an additional chicken wing ($1.80). Once again, presentation was good and I had a taste of their homemade achar - good. I did not try the rice & chicken wing, though comments from my friend were favorable. The chicken wing was fried till very crispy, I could hear the crackling sound from across the table as my friend bit into her chicken wing.

Another friend had the ayam goreng lunch set. It's today's daily lunch special with a free glass of chilled chinese tea thrown in. All at a discounted price ($7.50, otherwise usually $8.80 from the ala carte menu and with no drink). The caramelized onions were really tasty & fragrant. The chicken leg was also fried till a very nice crisp. Quite a good dish as well.

With this revamp, they have removed service & gst charge. So, they definitely have brought down their prices. Perhaps with this move, they will be able to lure more of the lunch crowd. Worth a try if you like peranakan food without burning a big hole in your pocket
