_

Occasionally those of us Hedonists who are really serious about our Chinese food do a food crawl of some sort. Today’s was 5 stops, all for Hainan Chicken Rice. This is a traditional dish of Hainan Provence in southern China and is one of the national dishes of Singapore. Poached at low temp with garlic and ginger. The broth is supposed to be used to cook the rice. It is served with a variety of sauces.

This is part 3. The full set is: [Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5]

Inside this mall food court is another world.

A place straight out of early 80s Singapore or something. It’s incredibly “old school” and “value oriented.”
Tasty Food has a reputation for having great Hainan Chicken.

As a food mall kiosk, the menu hangs on the wall.

They also have both poached and friend.

Alas, they ran out of rice and wouldn’t serve us any chicken without it! So we had to move on with no chicken!!
