Steamed Chicken Rice @ A & I Hainanese Boneless Chicken Rice

 


Right at the west end of Singapore lays an almost hidden small coffee shop which houses a hidden gem that offers fantastic chicken rice which we were introduced. Here is YumzYumz food review of their steamed chicken rice.

Let's go straight to what's so special about A & I Hainanese Boneless Chicken Rice's offerings. Their steam chicken comes with a unique sauce, and forgive us if we are so under exposed to the world of glorious food. It tasted with strong hua diao wine (花雕酒) and probably the usual of sesame oil and such. But the main draw was definitely the hua diao wine which emits so strongly, it gives the chicken so much extra dimension, it wins hands down against many other mundane chicken rice stalls that we have tried so far. Chicken was tender and as we always gets the breast meat, as long as it is tender, we can be sure the rest of the chicken would definitely be much better. Chicken skin was almighty silky and soft, marrying well with its delightful flesh.

Rice was fluffy, slightly on the mushy side but still nicely done. Chili sauce was watery but packs a strong punch.

End of it all, it all boils down to their unique hua diao wine sauce on its chicken. So damn awesome.

Each plate of chicken rice cost $3 and even though it is far on the west end of Singapore and within a small coffee shop, be prepared to queue for about 20mins during lunch time as it gets crazily pack.

Hunan Pork Belly at Xiang Xiang Hunan: Crunchy, Spicy, and Lip-Smacking Good

  You know a dish is that good when you keep coming back for it. And that’s exactly what happened on our third visit to Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine 湘香湖南菜 —this time at AMK Hub. We already had high expectations from our past experiences, but once again, their Hunan pork belly blew us away. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What Makes This Hunan Pork Belly Stand Out? First off, let’s talk about the star of the show: their Hunan stir fry pork , made with a heavenly combo of Iberico pork belly and lean pork. It’s a dish that really brings out the spirit of Hunan cooking—bold, fragrant, slightly spicy, and loaded with green pepper aromatics. The pork belly is wonderfully fatty and tender, with that unmistakable richness that Iberico pork is known for. The lean pork adds a nice balance so it doesn’t get overly unctuous. And then there's the rabbit ear fungus. Yes, rabbit ear fungus—also known as Mu Er or Yunnan black fungus . It...

Xiang Di Mi Fen Pasir Panjang Food Centre – Fatty Ipoh Noodles Review

  When you think of crispy noodle dishes, most of us immediately picture the classic deep-fried yee mee swimming in luscious egg sauce gravy. But over at  Fatty Ipoh Noodles (肥仔怡保炒粉)  in  Pasir Panjang Food Centre , there’s something different sizzling away on the wok. Enter the  Xiang Di Mi Fen (香底米粉)  – a rare twist that swaps out yee mee for bee hoon, and the results are worth every crunchy bite. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What makes Xiang Di Mi Fen special? Here’s the magic: instead of sturdy yee mee, the hawker goes with delicate bee hoon. Deep-frying bee hoon isn’t as straightforward – it’s finer, more brittle, and breaks more easily, which means it takes extra skill to get it golden, crispy, and ready to hold up under a blanket of silky gravy. That’s already a show of craft. The glorious egg sauce gravy Once the fried bee hoon hits the plate, it’s doused with a  luxurious egg sauce gravy  that cl...
