chicken rice is one of those singaporean food i miss while i am away in Manila. although i can get Wee Nam Kee Chicken rice in Manila, but i still feel the chicken rice in Manila is very customize to their local taste.
so we decided to drop by at Uncle's wee restaurant @ Novena for dinner on Sunday! this time we had steam chicken, stirred fried vege with garlic, dumpling soup, fried handmade toufu. very heavy meal but very yummlious.
herbal tea like luo han guo is a must if u go to Uncle's Wee chicken rice. is really good!
each grain of the rice is covered with chicken stock. yumz
the steam chicken is well cooked. a tip from me, if you want to know if the chicken rice is gd, go for steam chicken. it is easy to cook roast chicken but it is very difficult to cook steam chicken. you really need to know the timing well and manage the temperature of the water u use to boil the chicken. everything must be right in order to have a yummy chicken. too long, too hot, it will make the chicken meat taste very tough and dry.
veges..i love veges. like wise same for veges, if you cook the vege too long, the vege will turn yellow..
very generous with the fillings in the dumpling. each dumpling is stuffed with meat and prawn! they are served together with the chicken stock! u can ask for more soup but need to pay for the dumplings. haha
crispy toufu. one of their specialty. the toufu remains soft even after deep fried.
thats all for sunday's dinner. All pictures are taken using PEN
i love to eat and i love my PEN
