This place is not for people who do not like rice (or trying to avoid rice) and oily food! This is a place for carbo, starch and bad cholesterol loading!!
My first time in this place was about 2 or 3 years ago when my former office was located somewhere near hear. I remember the heavy lunches and the sleepiness that follows after eating here.
The interior if this place is quite catchy...imitating a street scene in Singapore (yeah! That small Asian island famous for its hawkers food)... while the taste of the food does not come near to that in Singapore, be assured that your hunger will be satisfied with the huge amount of rice they serve (choose from a variety like nasi goreng, Thai fried rice, yang chow fried rice). The rice may come as a set (depending on what rice you choose) that includes 3 pieces of oily fried chicken!
Too bad the pandemic forced this place to allow take out only...you wouldn’t experience to eat inside to see and experience the “street scenery”.
Even for take out, expect a lot of rice! And it also includes the sauces (hoisin, ginger and garlic) they are also famous for even if you did not order for Hainanese...

This was our 2nd time dining at 101 Hawker. (The 1st visit I forgot to take photos because we were too focused on eating!) The interiors/ambience of the place did remind me of those hawker stores in Singapore.
Food is very good and very affordable (please see my photos for the menu). Served on time and in good temperature. We had Yang Chow, Lechon Kawali, Mixed Satay, Butter Chicken, Beef Noodles and Salt-Pepper Pork.
The proportions/serving sizes are very satisfying. Though I would not recommend the Mixed Satay because it was too thin to be satay. Other than that, overall experience was excellent. I'll be coming back to this place, and I will update everyone.
Update Sept 21, 2022: Been visiting 101 Hawker again with friends and colleagues. Prices have increased but that's understandable due to inflation. But service and food still...

I think it is amazing that you are offering vegetarian alternatives for your customers. I had the chance to order your vegetarian yang chow today. Unfortunately, the one that was delivered to me has chorizo bits. Thankfully, I was able to get a refund right away. Having said that that, you need to be more careful and serious if you are going to do this. People follow certain diets not just because they want to be healthy, but mainly because of what they believe to be ethical. This makes it highly disrespectful for a restaurant to serve a vegetarian any dish that has meat on it when they have been very specific about their order. I encourage you to train your staff to do better. Offering vegetarian alternatives is not just a fancy way of attracting new customers; it’s a...
