rev:text	Having eaten Malaysian and Singaporean food throughout my life, I'm always excited by more options available in the city. So upon hearing about Hawker Bar, I knew I had to go. Maybe even bring my family - if I dared. So I went with some friends who'd travelled in SE Asia before running the gauntlet with my family, and I was so glad I did (or I'd have never heard the end of it): THE GOOD I enjoyed their salt & spicy tofu cubes, as well as their other tofu dish. Both had good flavours and textures. The fish special was crisp and fried and presented well. A wee bit overdone, but that's a minor quibble. The pandan banana dessert was also tasty, though I did want more pandan - love that aromatic leaf! Prices are also really reasonable. THE BAD The Hainanese Chicken rice was a sad thing of boiled - not poached - chicken. Rendang was saucy - and done with a sweet Thai-like coconut curry. I'm pretty sure that's not how it's done in Singapore. My ice kachung was mostly ice and very little toppings. Laksa was... thin and missing that lovely viscosity. If you're looking for authentic Singaporean food, then Hawker Bar is not the place to do it. I wondered how two chefs who went to Australia for 2 years could come back and give us those crazy-good flavours of Singapore, but I was hopeful - I mean, there's a big Malay/Sing population there! Alas, the flavours are all off - too much ginger, not enough taste, mushy rice. Please go visit Lion City, Restoran Malaysia, and Gourmet Garden for the tastes of Singapore in Toronto. Phoenix also does an okay Chicken Rice.
