Been meaning to try this stall where Hawker Chan purportedly learnt how to cook his Michelin soya sauce chicken. But business is apparently good because several times they were closed when I came just after lunch.

Ordered half a “virgin chicken”, a serving of braised pork belly and a plate of chicken rice. Now we are know that we no longer have fresh boiler chicken from Malaysia, only kampung chicken. Yet Maria’s soya chicken is thrill be best I have tasted since the ban on exports to Singapore.

The rice which came drizzled with soya sauce, was fragrant and fluffy. It goes well with the piquant chilli sauce. The braised pork was just normal and a tad on the greasy side.

Can’t wait to come back and try again once fresh chicken import resumes, with noodles.
