(Bugis St) Ming Kee Chicken Rice

This is my favourite chicken rice stall. Be prepared to queue if you are going during peak hours - lunch & dinner time. I usually try to go abit earlier to avoid the crowd. The chicken rice not only tastes good, the portion given is also generous compared to other chicken rice stalls. The rice is flavorful and their chicken meat is a little cold/cool and tender. They actually chilled their chicken in cold/icy water which I seldom see that practised in other stalls.

 

 

Where: Coffeeshop at Blk 511 Bishan Street 13, Singapore 570511 (near to Bishan interchange)

 

 



Tze char at 彩虹城 (2)

Again, I pop over at 彩虹城 Tze Char for dinner and this time we had Curry fish (garoupa), Indonesia prawns, sambal Kang kong.

There was no fish head supply that day so we had curry fish instead! The curry is rather different from the usually curry fish head. The curry was flooded with garlic, dried red chiillis, and what I think should be skinned brinjal, and something else that gives the curry a very slight sour taste.. I seen that before but just don't know what it's called... (no it's not assam) Although the curry smelled strong (in a good way) but it was not as potent (spicy) as I thought it would be. The curry was rather mild. I liked that there were a lot of brinjal and the fish was fresh to tender. Overall I gave it a 4 out of 5.

The damaged for the dinner came up to RM 60 for the 3 dishes, 2 plates of rice, and 2 glasses of chinchow drink.

Lastly, I must add that their chin chow drink is nice- they are generous with their chin chow that it  filled every mouthful that I took! Yes I mean it! (Most of the time, hawkers give you more syrup/ sugar water than chinchow.. BUT not here!)
