What food is good in the northern side of Singapore? When we think of East: there is Katong Laksa, there is chill out areas like Siglap. When you think of West, there are indie cafes sprouting out in the Western Part of Singapore. How about the northern side of Singapore? I guessed it is famous for hidden finds. One of the hidden finds in the northern side of Singapore is definitely the bucket Kampung chicken. We are no strangers to chicken rice. In fact, Gordon Ramsay came to Singapore to master the culinary art of chicken rice. However, bucket kampung chicken rice is really something new to me. In simple, it is just a kampung chicken being placed inside a bucket when it is served. As for taste: it is really different from those chicken rice out in the market. The kampung chicken is drenched in sesame oil and garlic. They really spared no expenses in the amount of garlic spread on the chicken. It really reminds me of Chinese confinement food. Garlic and sesame oil are supposed to expel ‘winds’ in the body. For those who love garlic and sesame oil, this dish is really for you. They placed the entire chicken into the bucket- there are a lot of bones, which can be quite tedious to consume. This is especially true for me cos I only love boneless chicken.
What’s chicken rice in Singapore without its garlic chili? The spice in the chili is manageable with a twinge of sour note in it. As for the rice: we were quite disappointed as it lacks the aroma of chicken rice smell. But I guess they compensated with a plate that has a chicken picture.
The good thing about this place is that… it is 24 hours! I had not tried their dim sum but I will be back whenever I have cravings in the middle of the night.
