Sometimes, all you want is cheap and comforting grilled meat.

Hot Plate Western Food
They pride themselves as Taiwanese-style x Singapore western food as they serve about 3 taiwanese inspired dishes like Taiwan’s famoush fried chicken cutlet.
Not in the mood for deep-fried stuff, we got Pork Chop ($5.50!!) instead and whooop, no ragrets at all.
So good. The pork chop was lean yet tender enough, retaining its tasty juices. Seasoned right and accompanied with great sauce, a sizzling plate of this is power lunch to me.
P.S. there will most probably be a line during lunch hour so you might wanna avoid that.
