Super Simple in Singapore

Customize Your Box - Regular Set

It seems like there are a bazillion shops in the city center doing healthy build-your-own bowls for office workers these days. But none of them have gotten me too excited, even if they are mostly healthy, fast, and cheap. This small chain, on the other hand, was a recent discovery that resonated with me a lot more than the others.

In particular, their chicken thigh is so tender and tasty that I occasionally get cravings for it. I thought I saw a note that said it contained dairy, so I wonder if they use yogurt or cream to tenderize it like a murgh malai kebab. And true to their name, they season everything so simply that I like it so much better than their competitors, particularly Grain Traders which tends to make many items too acidic. Daily Cut is better, but its rotating menu can be a bit hit-or-miss.

Heybo had been my go-to until I finally tried these guys. The availability of romesco sauce here plus simple electric salt and pepper mills are right in line with my tastes. It's like my stomach feels seen by these guys, and they are now my favorite.
