Eleven Finger Scissors Curry Rice Review: Hidden Spicy Curry Rice Gem At Bugis

I love my meal drenched in thick curry that is savoury and spicy. Instead of grabbing tissues, I lick them off in delight at the first taste of my meal and tuck into it.

Hidden Curry Rice Gem At Bugis - Eleven Finger Food at Eleven Finger Scissors Curry Rice We ordered two plates of curry rice, with four ingredients each, and the auntie poured three sauces over each plate. The sauce mix was flavoured with spices and tasted spicy, as I forecast after seeing the amount of chilli oil glistening in their pot of curry.

The curry was smooth and didn’t taste of curry powder even if they used lots of it. For every order of extra rice, an additional small saucer of the gravy mix is given.

Their rice is somewhat dry, but this helps to prevent the grains from becoming too sticky after they soak up the curry. The pork belly had a good ratio of fat to meat and was thoroughly marinated.

I would have preferred it to be cooked till tender as it was slightly tough. For our second plate, we ordered curry chicken, tau pok, pork chop, and chap chye for $4.50. Though the meat wasn’t sweet, it was tender and went well with the curry it was cooked in.

The pork chop was encased in a thin batter, with meat that was dense and not too thin. It wasn’t crispy though it was freshly fried but it had a delectable garlicky aroma that we didn’t expect. According to It was cooked in a starchy dark sauce that, sweetness to the gravy mix, balancing out the savoury curry.

It was lightly seasoned so it didn’t taste too bland on its own, and took on the flavour of the curry easily. In QS 269 Food House, the stall is easy to locate, found across the street from Bugis+. The kopitiam is divided into two blocks, 269A and 269B, but both are dimly lit even with the lights switched on in the day.

Despite the fans, it was quite stuffy and slightly warm, so we were eager to escape into the air-conditioned mall after our meal. The verdict I enjoyed the sauce blend from Eleven Finger Scissors Curry Rice, and sometimes, that’s the deciding factor as to whether a curry rice is satisfying. That said, the stall owners are generous with the curry and I love how it is thick, savoury, and spicy.

While this isn’t a meal I would make a trip down for, it would be in my dining options if I was in the area and craving a warm meal of curry that’s easy on my wallet.
