Chicken House

Here's a dish that screams Uniquely Singapore! I am choosing to ignore Malaysia's claim that the Hainanese Chicken Rice among other SINGAPOREAN dishes belong to them. Childish right??? Bleh!!!

Ask Singaporeans about what they like about chicken rice and you'll probably get different answers. Some like the chilli, some like the rice and some just like the chicken. I like all of them! If a place can get all three right, then I'll be madly in love with the joint. In my opinion, Chicken House has got all three right!

I've been eating at Chicken House (also known as Kampong Chicken Rice) for so long that I don't know how many years it's been opened for business. Lunch is the busiest time the restaurant sees on weekdays and on weekends, it's always full-house during dinner.

I love how the chicken skin is yellow. It's really yummy! I don't understand people that don't eat chicken skin. That's the best part ain't it?!

We love the kai lan with oyster sauce too!

Another dish that is popular here is the cold mud crab. I've never tried it and I doubt I ever will. I like my crabs piping hot! But if you've tried their cold crab, please do leave a comment at the end of this post and tell us what you think. Thanks a million!

They charge $12 for half a chicken. That's definitely alright for a kick-ass chicken rice meal! The kai lan cost $4.00 and there is a charge of $0.60 per wet towel. Do note that this joint DOESN'T sell alcohol! Meaning...no ice cold beer to go along with your meal!!!!

So if you are ever in good old Thomson, here's another good place you can dine at!
