Our take: Hakka Thunder Tea Rice at Margaret Drive Hawker Centre consistently draws queues for its rendition of the traditional dish.
We note that the $8 brown rice thunder tea set, which includes two pieces of yong tau foo, is a popular choice.
Reviewers frequently highlight the generous portions of peanuts and vegetables in the thunder tea, and the 'wholesome flavourful herbal taste' of the soup.
The yong tau foo, particularly the deep-fried options with fish paste, receives praise for its substantial filling and taste.
However, we observe recurring feedback about significant wait times, often exceeding 30 minutes, especially during peak lunch hours.
There are also mentions of queue management issues, with some customers reporting perceived queue-cutting.
Despite these operational challenges, the consensus points to a 'flavourful and yummy rice bowl' that many find worth the wait.
We think this is a solid option for an authentic thunder tea experience, provided you have the patience for the queue.
