Golden Scissors Curry Rice

Golden Scissor Curry Rice is one of those places that proves comfort food doesn’t need refinement to be exceptional. The plate arrives messy in the best possible way—piled with pork chop, braised cabbage, egg, and that unmistakable ladle of thick, aromatic curry that ties everything together. The flavours are bold, homely, and deeply satisfying, with the curry striking that perfect point between savoury, mildly spicy, and slightly sweet. It’s the kind of meal that feels like it was made for people who actually eat, not just taste. And I’ll admit it upfront: I love this place, so my enthusiasm might be showing. But even acknowledging that bias, it’s hard not to appreciate how everything on the plate complements each other so naturally. The curry coats the rice perfectly, the pork chop has that crispy-soft balance, and the vegetables soak up just enough sauce to stay interesting without getting soggy. It’s honest food done extremely well—simple, comforting, and consistently delicious. This is the stall I return to without hesitation.

I stumbled upon this stall on a Saturday afternoon, craving some Hainanese Curry Rice, and decided to give it a shot. I ordered the Pork Cutlet Set for $4.20, which came with a pork cutlet, fried egg, and vegetables. The service was decent, and they were happy to give me extra curry when I asked. The curry sauce itself was thick and gooey with a slight hint of spice, though I wished it had a bit more depth of flavor. Still, it was good quality. The pork cutlet was excellent; perfectly fresh, crispy on the outside, and tender inside. The vegetables were also stewed just right, making them soft and a great complement to the curry. Unfortunately, the fried egg was a bit dry. While it might not stack up to some of the more famous Hainanese Curry Rice establishments, this stall definitely stands out among ordinary curry rice places. If I'm ever in this hawker center again, I'd happily order from here!

Tried this stall amongst the few curry rice stalls in the food center. I would say it was good though would prefer more gravy over the rice. Ordered pork belly, braised cabbage, fried egg and an extra curry stingray for a total of $10.20. The pork was soft while cabbage has strong presence aroma of dried shrimp though not seen any. I like the stingray cut cooked with pineapple, tomato, etc.

June25, see many times when coming into the market from the carpark. Today instead of trying other decided to do this stall instead. Very good curry with chicken chop vegetables tofu and Japanese tofu for $5.90. Price point very reasonable, curry is very good and the chicken chop was crispy and moist. Highly recommend.

Set meals are affordable here, ranging from $4.20-4.80. I went for the chicken cutlet set, and added extra cutlet as an add-on($2). The food portion was pretty generous(maybe because of my add-on), and the curry was thick and flavourful. You could actually taste the curry spice in the curry. The chicken cutlet, etc had a homely taste to it, something like what your grandma would cook for you. I would actually love to have more curry on my plate though. Because the curry is thick, it finishes up really quickly with a few spoonfuls. Overall, a decent plate of curry rice.
