Any S$2 lunch in Toa Payoh?

I am a food lover and accidentally found this outlet which is very popular in Toa Poyah.

While our basic staple rice still rising to record high, it is nearly impossible to locate a food store that serves the public with good food to fill their stomach at S$2 flat.

You can either order:



1) 2 meat + 2 veg + rice
2) 1 fish + 1 meat + 2 veg + rice

Isn't that a steal?

This explains the long queue which you can see in the picture during a sunday 12.30pm peak period.

The food is good and filling. What else do you buy for S$2 in Orchard Road?

Now the location: Toa Payoh Lor 7, Blk 22.

If you have other recommendations, please keep me posted.

I did a web search for S$2 and locate a list in hardwarezone. It maybe outdated but none the less, an excellent guide for food hunter.
