Little Singapore, Sunnybank

Little Singapore was recommended to me by a Singaporean friend for some of the best food outside of Singapore in Brisbane. There are three locations to choose from; Market Square in Sunnybank, Charlotte Street and Albert Street in the city.  All three restaurants have different settings. Both the Market Square and Charlotte Street restaurants both offer table service but the Charlotte Street restaurant is a bit more laid back. It’s great for lunch or a casual dinner. The Albert Street store feels more like a fast food joint, you order at the counter, take a seat at your table and then collect it yourself at the counter once it’s ready. Meal sizes here are also small and the menu is not as extensive.

The quintessential meal at Little Singapore is the Hainanese Chicken Rice. The chicken is marinated and cooked in a chicken broth and then put in ice water in order to tighten the skin and lock in the flavour. It’s also the trick to getting it juicy and tender. The rice is then cooked in the same chicken broth. It is then served with a ginger and chilli sauce and a few slices of cucumber. It’s super tasty and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is going to Little Singapore.

Other dishes I highly recommend are the Roti Chennai, Nasi Goreng, Combination Ho-fun and the Nasi Lemak. I also recommend the homemade lemonade. It’s very refreshing! The meal sizes are very generous and the prices are very reasonable. Expect to pay around $10-15 for a main here.

Overall rating 8/10
