Nicely, it looks like this hidden gem has been within the information currently. Very pleased to see the store doing nicely! However good luck to regulars who used to get pleasure from it being a bit extra ‘hidden’ 😛. That’s proper – I’m speaking about Fiie’s Cafe (previously often called As-Shifaa Cafe) however you’ll in all probability comprehend it higher by – Mister Grumpy Fried Rooster now.
The identify could have modified however the meals stays tasty and inexpensive. I acquired to learn about this place due to my darling spouse (so means I acquired doubly fortunate lah proper 😁) who used to work close by Fortunate Plaza. And our authentic evaluate was means again in 2014. I consider it was actually my first go to there once I met her throughout her lunch break.
@thehalalfoodblog Mister Grumpy Fried Rooster Nasi Ayam all the time hits the spot 🔥 Theyre opening their third outlet subsequent week (clue: it’s not within the East facet 🥲) #halalsg #sgfoodie #fyp
So this isn’t your Hainanese-style rooster rice as you possibly can see. They promote Nasi Ayam the place your rooster rice is served with a sedap giler rooster that’s given the #DeepFriedGoodness remedy!
Deep-fried rooster served with additional crispy crumbs for that additional shiokness takes it to the following degree! I suppose you can say this can be a Malay-style of rooster rice. Y’all in all probability know, there are 2-3 actually superior ones across the island and this one positively makes the record. There’s one thing about that conventional marination of flavours that offers that style all of us love.
The fried rooster is just not the one ‘distinctive’ factor about this Nasi Ayam by the best way…
On prime of the same old Rooster Rice chili, you additionally get to get pleasure from their signature Sambal 🔥 And belief me – this one is tremendous shiok! It’s kinda like a Sambal Ikan Bilis that you simply would possibly get with Nasi Lemak however by some means this one is a bit totally different. Regardless of the case, all of the flavours simply go so nicely collectively and to be trustworthy my mouth is simply watering as I kind this out.
After we used to go to, they’d additional treats like Fried Rooster Components like Gizzard and Neck and so on (aka Empedal) which everybody simply liked and I now see extra sides on the their menu together with Sambal Quail Eggs, Sambal Hotdogs and Bagedil. No matter you selection, the primary star is undoubtedly the Fried Rooster Nasi Ayam 💪🏼
Evidently, we extremely suggest the Nasi Ayam right here. I’m going to should get used to calling it Mister Grumpy Fried Rooster aka Fiie’s Cafe and never As-Shifaa however most vital factor is that the meals remains to be sedap. It is a good instance the place the the place lives as much as the hype you see on-line. See y’all there! (Hopefully when the lunch crowd has handed LOL).
PS you possibly can in all probability see that I haven’t actually talked about a lot in regards to the angle taken by most media retailers – in regards to the ‘grumpy’ nature of the stall proprietor(s) (therefore the identify Mister Grumpy Fried Rooster). All I can say is that I’ve by no means had an disagreeable expertise once we visited and like most individuals will say – the meals is certainly definitely worth the wait.
The excellent news is that Mister Grumpy Fried Rooster by Fiie’s Cafe has opened a number of retailers islandwide. Yow will discover SIX retailers throughout Singapore and hopefully extra to come back sooner or later.
