Adeline NahJuly 13, 2014Lotus root soup are awesome! Chicken rice is good too but service is really bad and prices are quite steep. Their chilli are out of the world.. 😍 it so much!!
waypointJuly 4, 2010A middle-aged bespectacled waitress forbade us from moving an outdoor table; she claimed it made the legs wobbly. We only wanted to move it 12-inches further under the shelter because of the rain.
Eric LimDecember 4, 2011Chicken bloody, rice not flavorful & undercooked. Chili different but so so. Unfriendly service. Tau Kwa Bao not bad. The lotus peanut soup that came free was the only thing I find is quite nice.
VikiMay 16, 2010Awesome chicken rice. What's nice is that you can have a few cool ones at the pub next door and attack the food
Edward YongSeptember 19, 2013Chinese waitress bitch gave me a black face and shook her head when i said 'i don't speak Mandarin'. better still - when i complained to the owner, instead of apologizing, he just looked sheepish!
Elizabeth LeeDecember 8, 2014Very little meat for $7 drumstick meal. Bit of a scam really. Don't understand why ppl still eat here.
Dennis QuahNovember 30, 2012Tip? Just avoid. Bad food , poor service. Gave me crappy rice that was scrapped literally from the bottom of the pot. Replaced it with noodles but still.. Bad experience.
Service here is shitty but there's no other eatery open in this mall in the morn on weekends so hv to make do.
Raven S.November 6, 2011The food is so-so but their tau kwa pau (available on weekends only) is pretty interesting.- waypointJuly 4, 2010Needless to say, we decided to spend our money at Spizza instead. A pity Waffle Town wasn't open that evening after the move; the NEA Inspectors hadn't been by yet.
Renee LimAugust 8, 2011Very very bad service. The lady that took my order is so fierce I don't dare to order more. Oh Saw hair in rice and the veg come only when we are about to finish eating. Hope the boss read this.- Saw a tiny cockroach crawling while waiting to order my tea!! Yeeewwww!!!!

"Big bird restaurant serves different types of chilli and they are all good. Try the chicken rice chilli and the sambal belacan. Very good stuff. Can also buy ready-packed ones at $8/btl"
