Been to this place a couple of times for their white chicken rice and some Nonya dishes. The chicken meat is very tender, so no chance of chewing on tough chicken breast meat! And there are generous portions of CHICKEN SKIN !!! So, for those who love this slippery chicken bit, this is the place for you! (Weight watchers, stay far!)Recent trip to this place, however, left me with mixed feelings. Firstly, they opened another unit, just 1 unit away, selling roast items, which suggests that if y
Recent trip to this place, however, left me with mixed feelings. Firstly, they opened another unit, just 1 unit away, selling roast items, which suggests that if you're sitting at the original unit, you can only eat what they offer and vice versa for the other unit. (At least, this is how the waitress at the original unit suggest to me. No signs of "cross-unit" menu items either.)
Secondly, I find the place dirty. Let me describe in detail. The floor is oily, so pity me as I had walked in with white shoes and was pretty sure my shoelaces, which were dangling around, would have been stained with whatever oil was on that floor. If you are bringing old folks, do take caution! Next, there were MANY dead flies in the container of chilli. When I informed the waitress, she simply took the next tables' condiments and pass to me (similar to the other tables, the container was left opened too, but no drowned flies in it!). Thankfully, she promptly aceded to my request for a fresh set of condiments from the kitchen (who knows whether the source in the kitchen is equally contaminated...but I'm still healthy!).
Lastly, one thing that often irks me is seeing waitresses/waiters pre-occupied with their own conversations in little groups, while diners are desperately trying to get their attention for the bill. Again, it has happened here.
Well, total amount spent (2 pax chicken rice + crispy tofu + barley drink) = $26.40
Hence, after this last experience, I'll probably visit the Tiong Bahrun Boneless Chicken Rice in Chinatown for my chicken rice fix in the future. Cheaper, same environment (though no A/C).
