Long, long, long…

My girl wanted chicken rice for lunch that day so we stopped by here…

Gee! It was only 11 something, not noon yet and they…

…were running out of most of what they had. There wasn’t any char siew left, none of the regular roast chicken either.

I just asked for whatever they had in a mixed platter for three…

…and this was what we got.

The steamed chicken…

…was great and the orange-coloured one was very good too. I liked how the guy would debone the chicken drumstick and slice the meat into bite-sizes and serve it on top of the bone.

The siew yoke…

…was different from the usual and at best, I would say it was all right – I’ve had nicer ones elsewhere. I remember it wasn’t quite like this when I had it once and I rather enjoyed it then.

Of course, I simply HAD to order the stewed eggs…

…as well. All those plus three plates of fairly nice chicken rice and three bowls of complimentary soup came up to only RM25.00. I thought that was pretty reasonable.

I also ordered the yong tofu from the stall further inside, the RM9.50 set…

…for the soup to share but I shouldn’t have bothered. The complimentary soup from the chicken rice stall was very nice, maybe even nicer than the yong tofu one. Usually, at such chicken rice places, the soup they will give you would be a somewhat watered-down salted vegetable one, more often than not, with a chicken claw in it. This one was seaweed and the broth was thick and we all loved it a lot.

I was delighted that there were not many people around that day. My girl and I did drive past once but it was so crowded so we went elsewhere (and had something a lot more expensive and not even half as nice). We certainly would want to come back here again.
