Our take on Old Street Scissors Cut Curry Rice in Bukit Batok is that it serves a specific style of Chinese hawker fare, known for its unique cutting technique.
However, the primary feedback from diners points to a consistent concern about pricing and portion sizes.
Multiple reviews highlight that dishes, such as 'Rice + 4 veg' for $6 or 'Rice + 1 vege with minced pork + 1 egg' for $4, are considered more expensive than comparable options elsewhere.
Portions are also described as small, with one diner noting a takeout order of 'kungbao chicken, braised tau kee and spinach' for $5.20 filled only to 30-40% of the container.
While some find the food delicious, the value proposition is a recurring issue.
We think this spot might be best for those specifically seeking the 'scissors cut' style and are prepared to pay a premium for it, but it's not a budget-friendly everyday option.
Best for a quick, specific craving rather than a value meal.

Wow. It's true. Too overpriced. I ordered: Rice + 4 veg = 6bucks! Wow man. Like I was too stunned to eat *punt intended* Refer to images. I ain't kidding. Not coming here again unless gun held to hea…
Delicious, but price is about 1~2 dollars more expensive than normal chai png! Be prepared! You see, plain Rice+1vege with minced pork+1egg =$4
