I've been using City Plaza mall (nearest MRT: Paya Lebar) as a shortcut to home for two years now, and I do know that it is where local pasar malam (tiangge) tenants buy clothes to sell. Nothing interesting in this rundown mall, which gets a shot of life in the arms on Sundays when Indonesian workers hang out. It's the Lucky Plaza of Indos.
There is, however, Arnold's restaurant on the second floor which always has a long queue. The fried chicken is cooked Jollibee/Max's style. A lot of breading and fried to a crisp. It's a delightful experience to hear the chicken skin crackles and cooking oil oozes out of your mouth. Very sinful but delish!
They serve it with tasty buns and gravy. Coleslaw is also served on the side, and it's done right: not too watery, the lettuce isn't soggy.
The key service crew are Pinoy, and so they perform the customary tuksuhan routine with Pinoy customers ("Masarap ba talaga chicken niyo? Baka naman parang ****** lang ang lasa...), which makes it feel like you're home.
They now have an express outlet in pasir ris and newton (i think) and do deliver.
