If you’re craving a plate of Din Tai Fung-style fried rice at a fraction of its cost, try Hong Style Fried Rice, a humble hawker stall that launched just last year. They’ve recently opened their third outlet in MacPherson, a short six-minute walk from the MRT Station.

We first wrote a Hong Style Fried Rice review when they opened in Ang Mo Kio last year, and were impressed with the affordable prices offered. Started by a former Din Tai Fung chef, the hawker stall is known for their egg fried rice, which starts from just $4 a serving.

You can opt to have your fried rice cooked with different add-ons and toppings. A must-try is the Egg Fried Rice with Pork Chop ($6.50), which comes with a generous slab of deep-fried pork chop atop a bed of fluffy and eggy fried rice. There’s also a Darksauce Egg Fried Rice (from $5) that you can zhng-up by adding luncheon meat (+$1.50), chinese sausage (+$1.50) or shrimp (+$2.50).
For an extra burst of flavours, top your fried rice with a dollop of their house-made chilli paste, which has been said to resemble Din Tai Fung’s signature chilli oil.
Loyal fans of the stall can also look forward to the brand’s newly launched loyalty card programme. Collect a chop for every $10 spent, and accumulate 10 chops to redeem a free add-on of your choice. With 20 chops, you are entitled to a free egg fried rice of your choice! Do note that this promotion ends on 31 December 2022.
