Hawker's Delight - 4127 Main St @ King Edward

Best value for money Malaysia/Singapore food! The wonderful thing about this little hole-in-the-wall is that you can get a full, hot meal for < $6. Having actually tried Malaysia/Singapore cuisine in well, Malaysia and Singapore, this place is quite faithful to the original. Even the interior decor conjures memories of a typical Southeast Asian eatery. G and B have visited this place together at least 4 times (B has been there at least 8)

 Vegetable Fritter w. Sweet Vinegar

 Fried BBQ Pork Prawn Noodles (Mee Pok)

 Hainan Chicken Rice

Laksa

So far, IMHO, the Mee Pok (Fried BBQ Pork Prawn Noodle) is the best. Mee Siam and Mee Rebus are lacking the shrimp/tamarind taste. The Hainan Chicken Rice is decent and B considers it cheap for such a hearty serving size. The Laksa is alright, just alright, and is easily outdone by Bo Laksa King. G likes the vegetable fritter with sweet vinegar (B thinks it's too oily). Water and tea are self-service and complimentary. These are just the ones we've had and recommend. There are at least seven more dishes e.g. Nasi Goreng, Sayur Lodeh, Satay, to be had...updates forthcoming!

If you're on a budget and craving Southeast Asian, this is the place to go.
