🚩 The chef is from Malaysia and offers a variety of authentic dishes.

📍 Location and Transportation: Sam Sing Ma is located on Section 1, Da'an Road, Taipei City. The nearest MRT station is Da'an Station, Exit 6, which is about a 4-minute walk. Parking is inconvenient.

🏠 Space: Upon entry, there is a seating area, with the counter and cooking area behind it. The space is not large, with 20 seats available. The lighting and furniture have a cute retro feel.

💰 Ordering and Payment: Orders are made at the counter by calling out numbers for checkout, and only cash is accepted.

🍽️ Dishes:
Hainanese Chicken Rice: The portion is decent. The chicken, which is the main protein, is tender and delicious, served with cabbage, scallion omelet, and pickled radish (which lacks flavor). The rice soaks up the broth, and overall I find it average; the advantage is that it’s affordable.
Malaysian Curry Chicken Rice: The portion is sufficient, but there is little vegetable. The curry tastes good and pairs well with the rice, with seasoning just right—not too spicy. It contains chicken and very soft potatoes. (The sauce next to the rice is very spicy.)

💭 Summary:
I've eaten at this restaurant quite a few times. Previously, I would take takeout home, but today I came a bit further for dine-in. Personally, I feel this restaurant offers a rich variety of dishes, the flavors are authentic and the prices are reasonable. Although it may not have the consistent quality of a chain restaurant, it feels warmer to eat here.
