Why I Love This Recipe
I had Chicken Rice at this place in Robertson Quay and it was really good. Super tender chicken with that fragrant rice – the uncle said there’s a special technique to getting the rice right. Now I make it at home and my kids always ask for seconds. Even my husband likes it, and he usually only wants his usual hawker food.
