Rice Holic: Taiwanese Fried Rice, Bento and Viral Mango Mochi in Richmond
Rice Holic is a Taiwanese food court favourite in Richmond's Admiralty Centre, famous for its fried rice bento boxes and a giant mango mochi that went viral. It was named to the Chinese Restaurant Awards' Top 30 long list in 2024, a rare honour for a food court stall, and has since opened a second location at Empire Centre.
Here's what to order at Rice Holic.
About Rice Holic
Rice Holic opened in September 2021 in Admiralty Centre, specialising in Taiwanese rice bowls and bento. Its mango mochi, a whole piece of mango wrapped in tender mochi, drew huge lines and weeks of pre-orders.
The second location, in Empire Centre's food court on No. 3 Road, focuses on Taiwanese-style breakfasts and noodles.
