boon keng chicken.

12 Jun

for those that are fans of savoy in LA/San Gabriel.. heres a great place for singaporean cuisine + hainan chicken rice in taipei.

the place is a little cubby of a restaurant, taiwan’s more local setup of no frills cuisine. stool seating.

an order of hainan chicken comes with a choice of either light or dark meat, and is served with a bowl of rice- cooked in chicken stock + fat. full of flavor and a little bit of grease. the chicken is served with green onion and preserved sour veggies, and sits in a place of a soy based broth. no ginger here.

soy sauce paste to drizzle and mix with rice. hot pepper sauce ( not very spicy, more sour) to dip the chicken in.

above, an order of the dark meat. below an order of the white meat. i like the dark.

thai iced milk tea. extra ice for me. yum.

love that its about a 10 minute stroll from my office right on zhongxiao. new place for lunch!
