What’s up…

Well, quite a lot, in fact…but I’ll just go one thing at a time starting with this lunch outing I had with my daughter the other day. The chicken rice at this place has always been her favourite and as it’s all about her, not me, we ended up here…

They used to enjoy brisk business running the coffee shop and an economical fast food stall at a coffee shop in town, next to HSBC, where the menopausal beef noodles lady had her stall. Later I heard that the boss ran into some financial proiblems from meddling with the stock exchange, so the place was closed down. Sometime later, they opened this new place and it was called Johore Chicken Rice…

They had a guy from Johore but after sometime here, he left…and the wife of the boss took over. She had obviously learnt the ropes pretty well and was able to manage on her own. We love the chicken rice – richly fragrant and tasty. My daughter can finish the whole plate even though it is quite a substantial amount and she is never quite a rice person. She never wants the pek sak (white boiled) chicken though, so I ordered the roast meat platter – roast chicken, roast duck and roast pork…

That was RM12 a plate, I think and the rice was RM1 each, so it all came to over RM16.00, inclusive of two drinks. I guess that should be pretty reasonable, considering the amount of meat we had and more importantly, we enjoyed the food very much. The crowd there every day certainly is testament to the quality of what one can get at this eating outlet…

Service is excellent too! You can get what you order in a couple of minutes, faster than the drinks even! For the uninitiated who do not know where this place is, it is in the Delta Commencial Centre, Pedada…right opposite the Methodist Church in the area…

So, if you have never eaten there before, do drop by and give it a try! Who knows, we may just bump into one another one of these days…
