King of Fried Rice, Golden Mile Tower

We've been coming across mentions of this DTF-esque fried rice from King of Fried Rice (#B1-56 Golden Mile Tower, 6001 Beach Road) for a while. Amusingly audacious name. Finally got to try them out. They don't really do anything except for fried rice and to address the unasked question, theirs do look and taste like the stuff you get from Din Tai Fung without costing as much. 

Service was slow though. Even though we were fourth on the queue, we still had to wait about half an hour after ordering. We heard that the guy in the kitchen only fries small batches at a time to maintain quality.

The one with pork chop was the egg fried rice. Pork chop tasted like it had more five spice powder (not my thing) and was juicer than than the ones from DTF. With a little finesse, the plastic spoons they provided could actually cut through those pork chops. Tobiko was an add on.

The other plate is XO fried rice with shrimps. Nice flavour coming from the XO sauce. Shrimps were firm and pretty good quality.
