Lee Lai Jiak (李来呷), Tiong Bahru Plaza

Lee Lai Jiak (#02-105 Tiong Bahru Plaza, 302 Tiong Bahru Road, tel : +65 6518 4519) is a relatively new Taiwanese fast food joint that's taken over the space previously occupied by Old Street Bak Kut Teh in Tiong Bahru Plaza - just next door to Tongue Tip Lanzhou Beef Noodles and a coin's flick from Ramen Hitoyoshi.

They do popular representatives of Taiwanese food on rice plates which the restaurant term as "bento". Which also kind means that their options bring nothing new to the table. They're selling pretty much the same stuff as every other Taiwanese joint that's been around since....Peng Lai Ge, Lai Lai and Ryoriya Sangokushi/Sun King Ryoriya which actually have better variety as eateries.

I'm not dissing the food. They're not bad tasting. I liked those pickles/salted vegetables which was great pairing with the food especially the rice. Everything we had was fine. Except for the soggy deep fried pork chop from their Railway Bento soaked in the sweet/tangy sauce which I wasn't fond of.
