Tea with AK71: Hainanese pork chop rice.


I like Hainanese pork chop rice. I know there are two versions: with curry or with tomato sauce watered down. This one at Redhill Market (supposedly a branch of a famous stall in Chinatown) sells the former while I know quite a few hotel cafes serve the latter.


Pork chop (very yummy), chap chye (stewed vegetable) and a hor pau dan (sunny side up, Chinese style) on steamed rice drenched in curry! Price: S$2.50.

    Hi Isaac,

    Yup, this is the least expensive Hainanese Curry Pork Chop rice I have come across. There is another stall in the same market selling the same thing for $2.70.

    Sembawang Hills? I have been there once before with my family. Not too convenient a location for me but if someone is buying, I think I might be able to find the time. Haha.. Kidding. ;)

    Hi ortho,

    I think most of the stalls there are closed or closing by 9pm. I would usually go before 7pm for dinner.

    Yes, you guess correctly. This is the market closest to Redhill MRT station. :)

    Hi Hwang,

    Thanks for sharing this. $4.90? The jelly tea has to be very good as it costs as much as the rice. ;)
