I didn't come here for steamboat! Besides steamboat, Thien Kee also serves chicken rice. I must say this is one of the best chicken rice I have eaten in my (short span of) life and I would definitely come here for chicken rice if I ever am craving it! Even though located in a very old building (Golden Mile Complex), many people still frequent this place for it's food. Glad that my workplace is nearby and I can visit often! The chicken rice is really oily but really fragrant and I really enjoyed
The chicken rice is really oily but really fragrant and I really enjoyed it a lot, even though knowing that I'm consuming a lot of calories and unhealthy stuff. Their chilli sauce is also really nice, not too spicy or sweet. Mix in the chopped ginger, chilli sauce and dark sauce and you will be wanting more at the end of it.
Usually not a fan of pork, but their char siew meat is really good. Thinly sliced and covered with sauce, you can really taste the meat and sauce together as they complement each other well. Their chicken is also really good, was pleasantly surprised as it wasn't that fantastic aesthetic wise. However, the meat was tender to the right proportion and was not too fat too.
I used to come here for steamboat as a kid and I remember the place bustling with people when night comes. During lunch hour, there is significantly lesser people so it would be easier to get a seat then.
Service wise, there was a waitress who had on airs and looked at people with a displeased face, and never look at us when we were talking to her. Was not served by anyone else so nothing much can be said about the overall service there. However, might not recommend anyone who prioritize good service to visit as they don't have really good service and might ruin your meal.
