'Chicken rice is one of the national dishes of Singapore. Get more details here: https://migrationology.com/singapore-food/ ►Subscribe to my channel for more videos: http://bit.ly/MarkWiensSubscribe The dish of chicken rice, is really just that - chicken that’s cooked in a certain way, served with rice that’s often cooked in chicken broth and some light seasoning, paired together, and served with both a sauce and soup on the side. It’s not typically an overly flavorful dish, but it’s one of the ultimate comfort food combinations. In this video I met up with Daniel who is a Singaporean who loves chicken rice. We started off at Yuhua Village Market & Food Centre to go to a place called Hup Hong to specifically eat their version of roasted chicken rice. The roasted chicken, I’m not sure if it was deep fried? was sliced up on top of a plate of rice and served with a red chili garlic sauce. Overall, it was quite a tasty plate, the chicken was smooth but not mushy, and it was salted perfectly. I also liked the sauce at Hup Hong, which was heavy on the chilies and garlic, with a faint taste of ginger, and nicely salted. After Hup Hong we took a drive across Singapore to a legendary boiled chicken rice restaurant, and a place that serves an original pretty old fashioned Hainanese boiled chicken style. The restaurant itself was pretty cool, very authentic and looked like it had remained pretty much the same since it was open the last 60 years. We had a plate of boiled chicken and each had our own bowl of rice. What I really liked about Yet Con was that the chicken really tasted like chicken, it was a natural tasting boiled chicken with a very firm texture. I also enjoyed how they had two different sauces, one just pureed ginger, and the other a chili vinegar sauce. I thought the roasted chicken was really going to win for me, but after testing both, I was pretty pleased and impressed how good the boiled chicken also was. Overall, I think I’d prefer roasted chicken on a whole, as I’m not a big fan of boiled chicken skin. But that being said, I highly enjoyed the Yet Con atmosphere and shop. Both were good.
