Sticky Rice Review: New Halal Thai Restaurant With Nothing More Than $10 At Bugis

I have tried cookery those dishes but it didn’t taste like the ones I had in Thailand. Even though there are plenty of Thai restaurants in Singapore, not many are affordable and good – most can’t hold a candle to the OG Thai food in BKK.

Most of the items here are below $10, so I decided to check it out with my colleague. New Thai Eatery With Nothing More Than $10 | Sticky Rice Food at Sticky Rice We simply couldn’t give their Seafood Tom Yum Soup ($7+) a miss. Filled with anticipation, we took a spoonful of it and drank the soup with our fingers crossed.

We were relieved when we realised it wasn’t as spicy as we thought it would be – until we bit into chilli padi bits found in the soup. The soup, which was filled with prawns, fish, veggies and mushrooms, was also very sour and hearty.

The prawns were shelled and deveined, making it very easy to eat and enjoy with the soup. Their Chicken Pad Thai ($6.50+) is also a must-try dish if you happen to drop by.

The trick here is to squeeze the lime given all over the stir-fried rice noodles, and give it a good mix with the chilli flakes and ground peanuts on the side. Going to The slices of chicken were nicely seasoned, and, more texture to the dish. The Basil Chicken Rice ($7.50+) here reminded me of the ones I had every day back in Bangkok, except that this was much less oilier.

The mix of components went really well together as the dish was full of herby fragrance. We were glad that it didn’t taste cloying and the drink was really refreshing.

We could still taste the tea as it was not overpowered by condensed milk. For dessert, we had Mango Sticky Rice ($7+) . The sticky rice was so good on its own I could just eat it without the mango.

The combination of chilled mango and warm sticky rice was a match made in heaven. The verdict Overall, the food at Sticky Rice was really good and met my expectations.

The mango sticky rice was the cream of the crop. I’d never thought I would find a very good mango sticky rice in Singapore – I would travel to Bugis just for this.
