Our take: Old Street Scissors Cut Curry Rice in Boon Lay offers a classic Hainanese curry rice experience, with a focus on value and generous portions.

The $4.50 Pork Cutlet Set is frequently highlighted for its tender pork cutlet, which retains a crunch despite being drenched in a rich curry and braising sauce.

We note the inclusion of braised cabbage and a sunny-side egg, contributing to a comforting, flavour-packed meal.

The curry itself is praised for being rich and not diluted, with some patrons receiving extra curry without charge.

While most reviews laud the portion sizes and affordability, there are mentions of inconsistent quality and reduced portion sizes over time, with one reviewer suspecting a refried pork cutlet.

We also note that packing curry separately incurs a $0.30 charge.

Overall, it's positioned as a budget-friendly option, particularly for supper.

Verdict: A reliable, affordable option for a hearty meal, especially if you're in the area and craving Hainanese curry rice.

Best for those prioritising value over consistent premium quality.
