Our take: KPT 78 Tze Char in Hougang appears to be struggling with consistency in both food preparation and customer service.
We've noted multiple complaints regarding food quality, including instances of day-old dishes being served, hair found in rice, and incorrect preparation requests (e.g., runny eggs despite specific instructions).
The alleged practice of cooking multiple fried rice orders together, potentially compromising individual requests for extra ingredients, is also concerning.
Service issues are also prominent, with reports of rude staff and perceived dishonesty regarding order customisation.
Pricing is another point of contention, with one reviewer calling it 'the priciest Tze Char in Hougang' for what they consider mediocre taste, citing a $10.30 salted egg chicken with rice as an example.
Given the recurring themes of quality control issues, poor service, and questionable value, we'd recommend exercising caution.
This might be a place to skip unless you're truly out of other options in the immediate vicinity.
