Shihlin Taiwan Street Snacks

Me and Daphne were walking around The Cathay with the intention to head to Plaza Singapura for dinner. Somehow so many of the people at The Cathay's basement were eating Shihlin's "Happy Box" and we thought it looked quite good. Even when she was having a slight sore throat, Daphne insisted that our dinner has been decided for us already.

Happy Box: 7.2/10


In the "Happy Box", Shihlin's famous crispy chicken cutlet (mixed with a generous dose of pepper and spices/chilli) is served with rice, tofu, and bits of century (preserved) egg. For those who can't take spicy food, you should tell them to add just a little bit of chilli, because our chicken cutlet was terribly spicy and Daphne was coughing a bit too. We still enjoyed it anyway, and this branch in particular didn't have its cutlet too oily, which was good.

Service
Good. Quite fast too.

$4.80 for the Happy Box,
