More on the food from Bugis Junction's food court!
Ayam Penyet Set: 7.7/10
If you hadn't known, "penyet" means flat (and "ayam", chicken). If I'm not wrong, it has its origins from Indonesia and what they do is really just use the sides of a chopper to literally flatten the fried chicken thigh or breast. I've tried some of the ayam penyets around, and I dare say this one from Bugis is one of the better ones because the chicken is very tender and isn't dry. The special chilli served with it gives the dish a spicy kick too, and you might like to ask for more the next time you're ordering it. This stall however does not serve the usual piece of "tempeh" (fried fermented soybean) as a side, which explains why I added the fried eggs as a side ($1). Otherwise, it would just be the chicken and the rice, at the price of $5.70.
Fish and Chips: 6/10
Daphne bought this from the pasta place located right next to the drinks stall. Pictures can be quite deceiving, and the portion was quite small actually. Perfectly ordinary fish and chips, no oomph factor to it, and normal fish fillets used too. Not exactly worth $6.70 if you ask me.
