Hearty Hainanese curry rice with crispy pork at Old Airport Road Food Centre.
Hearty Hainanese curry rice with crispy pork at Old Airport Road Food Centre.
Golden Scissors Curry Rice is an Old Airport Road Food Centre stalwart that serves one of Singapore's most uniquely comforting meals — Hainanese curry rice, a hybrid dish where steamed rice is drenched in a combination of curries and braised sauces. The stall is known for its generous ladling of both a thicker, spiced curry and a lighter, more gravy-like sauce over rice and a selection of sides, creating a messy, glorious plate that is deeply satisfying. The crispy pork chop, breaded and fried to a golden crunch before being smothered in curry, is the must-order item. The spread of sides typically includes chap chye (braised cabbage), fried egg, ngoh hiang and steamed fish cake, all of which soak up the dual-curry combination beautifully. It is a meal that rewards those who enjoy mixing and matching flavours on a single plate. The pricing is very reasonable for the amount of food, and the queue during peak hours speaks to its popularity among Old Airport Road regulars. For curry rice that is unapologetically saucy and completely addictive, Golden Scissors at Old Airport Road is the gold standard. It is messy, marvellous comfort food.Based on 33 Google reviews

Their set meals are value for money 👍🏻. The minced pork ball is really nice. Curry is flavourful too but it is a little on the salty side. I was slightly disappointed with the pork chop as it was really thin and i can taste more of its flour then the meat itself. Other than that it was a nice meal. …

Ordered the pork chop curry rice (Set B). For $4.2, I personally feel that it's quite worth it! I added extra rice and it was only 30¢ for extra rice! The curry was recently flavorful and thick. The egg was about average and the veggie was …
Qadir
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 …
