Wok & Staple

Yesterday afternoon I ordered lunch here. Only one person working there. It wasn’t busy. My interaction with her was so negative and unpleasant because of her rudeness that I immediately asked for a refund. I went to another stall for my lunch.

I tried the Green Chicken curry tonight and was not impressed. Dry chunks of chicken that were too big. Curry that had bite, but no depth of flavour. Vegetables a soft goo of cabbage and sick looking bok Choy. Don’t believe the photo on the menu board.

First time in the food court and the food was good. The Singapore chili crab was a bit pricey $59.99 but the taste was great. Will come back again to try the black pepper crab.

Food was beyond bad. The chicken was way to greasy and it tasted like they dont change the frying oil. The vegetables (lettuce) were soggy and seemed old and the rice was impossibly bad. I wouldn't recommend to a friend, but maybe someone I dont like?

Singapore Chilli Crab w/Buns getting worse time after time.Today is my third times to have Singapore and Black pepper Crab. The very first time was the best with the elder oriental man. Second time with the young oriental man. Today is the worse!!!

They never have duck even though it’s listed on the menu. The rice is hard. The sauces are a fest of diabetes. If you want to waste your money on overpriced food that tastes mediocre and will leave you with diabetes then this is the place. Staff is nice though.

Come all the way to get chili crab. Turn out they out. Charge 83$ only refund 70$ ridiculous

Hawker stall. Hawker food. Hawker culture. Yes. This is a culture of many Singapore, Malaysian, and Hong Kong eats where street hawkers are known to have the best taste with an excellent price. Wok & Staple is here to bring you their signature chili and black pepper crab from Singapore’s heritage restaurant Dragon Phoenix established in 1963 by Chef Hooi Kok Wai. Fresh Dungeness Crab made to order in two signature flavors. Add $5 per flavor for their black pepper and chili crab to get a taste of Singapore right here in NYC. The black pepper is also from Singapore guaranteeing that local hawker flavor you drool of. Their BBQ pork is tender and bursting with flavors melting in your mouth. Their signature Phoenix Pullet is super flavorful and aromatic. It’s simply marinated roasted chicken that makes you wanting more. All their dishes are authentically Singaporean. Wok & Staple is a hidden gem right in midtown Manhattan where you can get a taste of the East legitimately. Signature Black Pepper Crab & Singapore Chili Crab w/ Buns 59.80 +10 for two flavors Chinese BBQ Pork Set 16.80 Phoenix Pullet Set 19.80

With great expectations ordered the signature dish, Sweet & Sour Chicken. However, felt deeply disappointed. The sauce was tangy and sweet as expected but what is the point if the meat felt inedible. The chicken pieces were thickly coated with flour and felt hard and dry to chew. Couldn’t eat much and felt money was wasted. Did go back and provide feedback at the stall however the staff just shrugged the shoulder nd looked away.

Paid 20dol for a bowl of rice and less than 80gr of chicken. No veggies. Overpriced.
