I ordered some Chicken Rice balls with a mixed plate of boiled steamed chicken & roasted chicken that was added with a delightful touch of gizzard!

While waiting for the main dish to arrive, it was first served along with couple bowls of freshly brewed herbal soup & amazing sidekick of blended garlic and chilli sauce!

The soup was exceptionally fragrant that contained the sweet essence of groundnuts and chicken feet.

This is certainly one of those outstanding stalls that really awed me by its competency in soup quality, despite it being as a complementary sidekick! The sauces were also perfectly crafted, unleashing just the right amount of aromatic spices from the citric taste of the chilli, as well as the light soothing taste from the ginger.

Both the chicken meat are very well seasoned with light soy sauce, where for the boiled steamed chicken, you can really taste the freshness from that smooth delicate skin, as well as the moist and tender meat on the inside.

The roasted chicken on the other hand is definitely on par as well, due to its pure heavenly fragrance of roasted skin on the outside that also bears a similar meat texture as the boiled steamed chicken too!

​If you are a gizzard lover, you would totally agree with me that this stall sells it as one of the best! The gizzard are extremely chewy that was filled with every bite of sweetness from the dressing of light soy sauce!

Having a good essential “base” of what defines an authentic Hainanese Chicken Rice dish, their main ultimate rice ball would be the absolute reason for making your trip down!

I was certainly awed by its remarkably huge tennis ball size alike, as well as the aromatic fragrance that was elevated off with every plate!
