Hainanese Delicacy

Chicken rice is probably one of the favourite Singaporean dish & yes, it is my favourite as well. However, i am rather picky over this "simple-looking dish". I love the fragrance of garlic in the chicken rice, the tenderness of the chicken and also the not so msg flavoured chicken soup that comes together. Sadly, i can't seem to find all this in this famous Hainanese Delicacy. Personally, i felt that it taste only so-so. It was not worth for the waiting time, i thought. They always have Q outside thier stall during dinner time. Maybe, the soup is what attracted the crowds. I mean the best will be their side dish such as the soup instead of their signature chicken rice!…Read More

I chanced upon this Hainanese Chicken Rice eatery when I was searching for my lunch at Far East Plaza.There was no menu at this eatery. You ordered your meals with the lady boss. Service was okay though sometimes the lady boss was a little grouchy. My order of White Chicken rice came quite fast. At $4, the serving of meat was quite big.The chicken meat had sesame oil aroma. The meat was smooth, silky and tender, even the breast meat was also tender. Under the skin was a thick layer of yummy fats.The rice was disappointing. It was non oily and did not have the fragrant of chicken rice.…Read More

Was having lunch here last week, ordered a mixed chicken meat, chicken organs, vegetable and a salted vegetable duck soup.The chicken is tasty and meat is tender especially their roasted chicken as is perfectly well roast. As for the organs, nothing special on it as is boil with water and added with the sauce over it. Vegetable is crispy and fresh and they are generous in giving the fried onions. Soup is abit too salty perhaps they didn't wash the vegetable long enough but is still acceptable. Will be back for more. …Read More

My daughter introduced me to this chicken rice stall at far east plaza. It can get quite crowded during lunch time so we went there slighter earlier to beat the crowd. Once seated, the dishes are served very quickly. We ordered each a one person's set which costs $4. I like white chicken but there is also roast chicken available. The set comes with dark soy sauce, homemade chilli dip and blended ginger paste.The rice is not too oily and it is very fragrant. I added some of the ginger paste and chilli to it and wow it is really really good. The chilli is spicy enough and it makes the rice very yummy, until I finished the entire plate before I finish my plate of chicken. The chicken is also nice, it is tender and you can mix it with the dark sauce if you like your foods to be saltier. I love their rice and it is what will keep me coming back.…Read More

Service is always fast and efficient here so that there will be a higher turnover of customers since it is always crowded during mealtimes. The chicken was very tender and marinated well. I find that the sauce is a little salty though. The rice was also very fragrant and not oily. The chilli was good, moderately spicy and complemented the rice well. 1 person's portion costed me $4.00 which was affordable. Be prepared to share tables during peak hours!…Read More
