By far the best Char Siew I've eaten. I always come back here for their char siew. No other restaurants or top chicken rice shop places has given me this texture and flavour of char siew.
I know I sound very intense and passionate about the "Art of Char Siew" but we're talking about perfect food here which is an art of taste to me. 😤
Alright cut the nonsense. Hahah I love the Char Siew here because the skin is glazed and grilled to perfect crispyness. The char on the skin will sometimes stick to your teeth and the pork fat will blend perfectly with the meat and melt in your mouth. Sweet and flavorful in every bite. Not too fat! Of course if you're late, all the good parts will be sold off. Good just by itself and with rice.
Normally the char siews I have are not sticky-crispy nor as tender. I've eaten this for many years and I still can't find a substitute for it nor has it dropped standards. Besides pork, they have a similar glaze with chicken drumstick.
However, this restaurant's rice is sometimes not cooked well and you might be served with half cooked rice.
They have other HK style food too besides chicken rice. Another recommendation is their King Prawn Curry Fried rice. Mhmm! Will capture its picture the next time I order that and make a thorough review. 😉
Famous for their yuan-yang drink as well. Perfect balance between coffee and tea.
Food: 8/10 Price: 8/10 (I usually order the full set which has rice, char siew and salted egg which was about RM 10.90 - LOVE eating with salted egg. But I'm not too sure about the price of a plate of char siew by itself.)
Continuing my KL adventures :p here's a really good garlic fried chicken with rice! It's a bit on the salty side but that's why it goes so well with the rice :p and the chicken is really crispy and fragrant ;p loves #food #foodie #foodies #foodgram #foodstagram #foodpic #foodpics #foodpicture #foodpictures #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #malaysia #malaysiafood #kl #klfood #rice #friedchicken #garlic
