Hakka Fun HamCha Yong Tou Fu Lei Cha Thunder Tea Rice

Tried the Lei Cha with brown rice. The soup had a handmade earthy, fragrant and rich in flavor. However, it leaned on the saltier side, especially with the addition of the preserved radish. I was hoping for a cleaner, more refreshing profile to match the usual healthy feel of Lei Cha. The roasted peanuts added a lovely crunch and depth to the texture.

By chance found this lei cha stall in the crowded hawker centre at Chinatown. Pleasantly surprised by the taste and quality of the food. The soup is a little bitter on it’s own but paired well when mix with the rice. Friendly stall owner

Hakka Fun HamCha & Yong Tou Fu offers authentic Lei Cha (Thunder Tea Rice) and Yong Tau Foo, featuring fresh ingredients and traditional Hakka flavors. It provides a wholesome and satisfying dining experience.

I have not tried all leicha in Sg, but this is definitely my favourite. The tea taste is very balanced, no overpowering herbs or leaves taste. The rice ingredients have enough crunch from the nuts, seeds and vege etc. Even for first-timer who have not tried leicha, I think it’s able get them “addicted” as well. Definitely no need acquired taste for it. Can add some fried yong tau foo as sides. Very fulfilling and healthy meal.

Was looking for thunder tea rice near my workplace and this was one of the places I found. Came here at around 3pm on a Friday and they were sold out but I managed to return and try on a Sunday at 11am as another stall we wanted to eat at was not open. I have been eating lei cha for more than a decade now and I really liked their version. I like my cha without water and the boss even warned me that they made theirs stronger, but it was alright for me. Their hand made Hakka yong tau foo is also freshly fried upon order, so the whole meal is a delight. I strongly recommend this stall if you want to give thunder tea rice a try.
