Tenderlicious Chicken Rice @ Ming Ji Chicken Rice

 


Located within Bishan Kim San Leng coffee shop, Ming Ji Chicken Rice (or Ming Kee Chicken Rice ^^) has been around for a long time and really famous around Singapore for their chilled chicken rice. Here is YumzYumz food review of Ming Ji Chicken Rice.

We got there around 11am on a weekend, and the queue was already 20 pax in line. It took around 15 quick minutes and it was our turn. The speed at which they cleared the queue was amazing. The customers before us were ordering in the 8 plates, 10 packets pattern, but the lightning movements of Ming Ji were obviously up to the task of satisfying everyone. On top of that, they were so polite and calm when conversing with everyone. Really awesome.

Nicely plated chicken and drizzled with their light fragrant sauce, each piece of steamed chicken was chilled firm chunky tender and moist. We always order the breast meat portion, as if the tough breast meat can be made nice, they cant go wrong with the other fatty parts. And they definitely didn't dissapoint. So satisfying. ^^

Sadly, the rice cant be said the same. The fragrance was slightly subtle, while the firmness was slightly mushy. Not the best that we had.

On the side was their chili sauce and dark soy sauce. Chili sauce was way too watery, not too spicy, and definitely could be better like what Seng Heng Hainanese Boneless Chicken Rice does.

Finally, the soup that they serve was really tasty, heavy in chicken flavour. Unlike many other chicken rice stalls that serve mundane bland soup, Ming Ji's chicken soup was rich and deep with taste.

At $3.50 a plate, Ming Ji Chicken Rice definitely makes amazing chilled steamed chicken rice, but their rice and chili sauce are really a downer. Nevertheless, it was an enjoyable meal and based on the crowd they draw in, they must are doing a fantastic job.

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...
