Wild Olives is one of those hawker gems that delivers restaurant quality flavours at wallet-friendly prices. The grilled chicken is tender, with a beautifully charred exterior that locks in its juiciness. The teriyaki glaze adds a sweet yet balanced richness, making every bite deeply satisfying.

Every main comes with two sides and my go-to picks are always the mushroom rice with caramelised onions and grilled herb potatoes. The rice is full of flavour and so fragrant, while the potatoes are crispy on the outside and buttery soft inside. If those arenโ€™t your thing, there are plenty of other options like mashed potatoes, fries, coleslaw, veggies or garden salad.

To round out the meal, a comforting bowl of soup is available for just $1. Just a heads-up: the dinner queue is no joke. Expect to wait at least an hour. For a meal this satisfying, itโ€™s a commitment worth making ใ€‹$7.20
