I had this roasted chicken rice from Diner’s for breakfast (ground floor of the CPF Building at Robinson’s Road). I was quite hungry and the uncle chopped the chicken so expertly I was amazed. :o)
Chicken rice is considered to be one of Singapore’s national dish, and is usually topped with cucumber, tomatoes, some lettuce leaves, and light soy sauce. Some prefer to mix in some ginger sauce and chili to the soy; I like mine with just a bit of chili. The rice they say is prepared with chicken stock and some garlic, and I think I smell sesame oil there.
In Singapore, chicken rice is served by most hawkers and food centers. One may opt to have some add-on like boiled egg, fried tofu, or chicken liver. The chicken can also be steamed instead of roasted. This sumptuous dish costs $SGD2-4, but can be as high as $SGD21 in some prominent hotels. Wow!
