This is my favourite chicken shop which I have visited a few times since last year. The tendering steamed and roasted chicken is my first choice, following with roasted pork and chay seow. This time four of us ordered chicken and pork & rice, with herbal drinks and it only cost below $60, indeed value for money and “every one can eat”!

Love their steam chicken, char siew & siu yok. Their rice comes with boiled soup . Porridge and noodles are quite a big portion for me. If you just wanna grab a bite, their garlic bread is toasted perfectly.
