After watching Eric Khoo's new film about Dementia and Hainanese Curry Ric - Recipe (回味) on Sunday night, I had a craving for Hainanese Curry Rice. I always hear people raved about the curry rice that is situated in the neighbourhood of Beo Crescent. It is relative near to my place but with no direct bus, I seldom travel near there.
But with the craving and that the place is near, I decided to 'walk out of my comfort zone' to visit the place. For about 20 minutes walk or so, I finally reached Beo Crescent and trust me, you can easily spot the curry rice shop by looking out for a long queue forming outside a coffee shop. The old school stall has no sign board and everyone calls it the Beo Crescent Curry rice. It is a really small coffee shop with tables and chairs outside the shop. Strangely, I guess due to its own structure, there is no seat inside the coffee shop.
I queued for almost 30 minutes before I placed my order. I might be stupid to be queuing with the lunch crowd. As I was alone and I could not see any available table, I decided to takeaway the food. (better than looking lost with the plate of food and searching for a table)
Their famous pork chops are on the must-try item and the person in front of me ordered S$5 for eat in and another S$5 for takeaway. Anyway, I ordered their pork chop, with the cabbage and a fried egg. I reckoned that being alone, we can never try many dishes. I better gathered my family again for good food soon.
I thought with me packing my food, the Pork Chop will lose the crispiness as it will be dipped in the curry gravy curry for long. But to my surprise, the thin sliced pork chops were still crispy when I had them. It was like eating Keropok. The curry gravy was nice and complemented the Pork Chop very well. Love it! Here's a picture of my food, I'm sorry that this picture did not bring justice to the good food.
