Tekka Centre

  • August 19, 2004
  • Rated 4 of 5 by Timone from Warwick, United Kingdom
Another fine example of a wonderful hawker centre. I don't understand why we don't have them all over the world. They cost next to nothing, have amazing food, a great atmosphere and are clean and friendly.

We went on a Sunday night, when Little India is filled with all the local Indians on their day off meeting up, and I mean all - there must have been 5000 of them, standing around, walking around, the atmosphere was great. In the tekka centre it was hard to find a table to eat at but we did and had a great chicken biryani, which consisted of half a chicken, a plate full of rice, a cucumber and chilli sauce and a bowl of biryani sauce. I have to confess to struggling to finish it, which when you consider it cost less than £2 is pretty incredible. Locals were coming and going and we were the only tourists for miles. As a female in this mass of men, I can say there was no hassle, everyone was very polite, everyone made way for each other, and it was lovely. My husband, however, had to bustle with the rest of the men. A great place to eat, and I think the fact that it was so busy helped the character of the place. Go on a Sunday evening for a unique experience.
