Arrived at 10.40am to find the queue already 7 long. But it moved quickly and within 5 mins I got my plate of chicken rice.

I ordered steamed chicken, drum stick rice with chicken gizzard and braised egg as add ons. Total damage was $5.70! Incredible considering the inflation we see throughout Singapore.

Along with my order came a bowl of chicken soup and they garnished the plate of chicken rice with parsley and salted vegetables. The chilli sauce is free flow and it was spicy enough and piquant to boot. An excellent dip.

The chicken was super tender and silky, especially the skin. The drizzled soya sauce and sesame oil accentuated the flavours of the chicken. Add their chilli sauce and you get a near nirvana experience eating the chicken.

The rice was not exactly fluffy but far from being too dense with oil. Their chicken gizzard was clean tasting and crunchy but the braised egg was very normal.

Surprisingly their salted vegetables helped to add another tone of flavour to the chicken and the rice. I only wish they could be more generous with it cause I only got a few strands of this delicious pickle.

Overall, well deserving of their Michelin Bib Gourmand. Strongly recommend over some of those over hyped chicken rice stalls. Please note that only this stall in Tiong Bahru market got the Bib Gourmand award.
