.Bugis.Street.Chuen.Chuen.Chicken.Rice.(津津餐食).Part.2.

As mentioned in Part 1 of my review for Chuen Chuen, I actually visited this eatery thrice within a week.
So here’s Part 2!

After shopping for Christmas presents on a Saturday, me and Iing decided to leave the crowded Orchard area and head to Bugis for dinner. Hungry and tired out from all the shopping and walking around, we were lucky to get seats at Chuen Chuen when we reached (after which the patrons started streaming in within a short period of time).

Iing likes the Fresh Garoupa Fish Slice Soup with Beehoon (S$6.50+) alot from the 1st time she tried, hence she chose to order it again.

Never did we think that this time round, the soup would be so bland, and fish slices not as fresh and QQ as previous time. I think they need to QC a ‘lil more to keep their standards consistent.

Hainanese Style Pork Cutlet Rice (S$6.50+) for me!

image

Omggg the fried pork cutlet was done really nicely, and more tender than the previous round. I couldn’t get enough of it!! The sauce is a ‘lil sweeter and sour than that of Portuguese style’s, and it actually suits my tastebuds more. So good!

We ordered half of a Roasted Chicken (S$14+) to share too.

image

It seemed like a rather big plate for 2 pax, but we ended up finishing every single bit of it and almost every drop of the sauce (I love the sauce so flavourful). They didn’t have enough roasted chicken for us to make up the half, so a small portion of it was in fact the normal white-skin chicken. Comparing these two, I still very much prefer the roasted version.

Group picture! Say cheese!

Off to desserts after dinner! (That be the upcoming post then *heehee*)
Till next time! *flying kisses*

.Bugis.Street.Chuen.Chuen.Chicken.Rice.(津津餐食).Part.1.

So my friend was telling me about this aircon-and-gst chicken rice which I need to try it out, and I finally had the chance to do so after 2 last-minute failed attempts.

image

Sure worth me waiting for long to try it! This whole set for S$6.50 (after GST S$6.95; no service charge).
Portion is good. Rice is fragrant. Roasted chicken breast is tender and not tough. The vegetables was fresh and still ‘lil crunchy. And I totally adore the minced ginger and chilli. So much better than those sets which I’ve tried at Food Republic’s chicken rice stall.

Hence, within the same week I actually went back TWICE to try out their other delicacies. Here’s Part 1!

Iing ordered the Fresh Garoupa Fish Slice Soup with Beehoon (S$6.50+).
image

Fish slices were tender and QQ. Lots of fresh vegetables. Chunks of tofu. Big portion of beehoon. And the soup was so tasty!
However, their standard for this dish wasn’t very consistent. Check out my Part 2 for this eatery to find out more.

For me, I’d the Portuguese Style Pork Cutlet Rice (S$6.50+).
image

Doesn’t look very nice in picture haha. The sauce was kinda interesting, but the pork cutlet was a ‘lil tough and tad too fatty for me. I do love the fact that it came with the chicken rice’s oily rice. So yums!

We got a plate of Imperial Honey Glazed Chicken (S$15+ for small/S$20+ for large) to share too.
image

I. LOVE. THIS DISH.
The chicken pieces were fried till the skin was slight crispy, yet flesh was tender and nice to chew on. Sauce was sweet and yums with raisins in it, plus the mango-looking ginger pieces were even nice to eat (think of them like ginger sweets).

So satisfying!
Part 2 review for this eatery coming up real soon! Cheers!
