Tender Hainanese chicken

Chatterbox Café, located at Shop B110, B1/F, Victoria Dockside K11 Musea, 18 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, specializes in exquisite Singaporean cuisine. The restaurant is dominated by brown and dark green tones, with coconut trees and a tropical feel. The table is arranged so that the distance between tables is not too close, and there is sufficient privacy. The author quite appreciates the service attitude of the restaurant staff, which is warm and efficient. After scanning the QR code to place the order, the hot food was served within ten minutes. Mandarin Hainanese Chicken Rice - $123 （Mandarin Chicken Rice） 📌The world-famous Hainanese Chicken rice - tender-boiled chicken, fragrant rice and chicken soup with homemade chilli, ginger and dark soya sauce Hainanese chicken rice is the restaurant’s signature dish and the quality is quite good. The portion of Hainanese chicken is generous and sufficient, with a large piece of chicken spleen and chicken breast. You can eat a piece of Hainanese chicken with a mouthful of oily rice to your satisfaction. I really like eating chicken breast. The meat is tender and smooth. In addition to the taste of chicken, you can also smell a faint aroma of wine. The sauce under the chicken is not too salty and will not cover the taste of the Hainanese chicken itself. The three sauces include dark soy sauce, minced ginger and chili sauce. The author’s favorite is homemade chili sauce, which has a natural and mellow flavor and is not overly strong. The oily rice tastes pretty good too, with just the right amount of chicken fat. I have eaten oily rice with too much chicken fat, which felt a bit greasy and affected the taste of the whole dish. The chicken soup also feels fresh and nourishing, with a piece of smooth tofu at the bottom. Signature Chicken Laksa - $112 （Chatterbox Chicken Laksa） 📌Thick rice vermicelli with chicken, egg, fish cakes and dried beancurd in spicy coconut gravy The laksa soup base is rich in flavour, with a strong coconut milk flavour and a relatively thick texture. Moreover, the flavor of the spices is delicate and prominent. I believe that the spices are slowly ground in advance before being used to make the soup base. The flavor of the spices was also more prominent than that of the shrimp. The ingredients include a whole hard-boiled egg, fish fillet, bean sprouts and tofu puffs soaked up the soup. Although it is a fully-boiled egg, the boiling time is calculated very accurately and the texture of the boiled egg is not too hard. The fish fillets are thick and have a chewy texture. This bowl of laksa is served with rice noodles, and my friend felt that the rice noodles were a little too tender. The chicken and laksa soup base go well together, the chicken pieces are tender and the soup base is just the right temperature so the chicken is not overcooked. Malay Specialty Fried Spicy Fish Cake - $58 (Otah-otah) Malay-style pan-fried spicy fish cake This fish cake is a unique Singaporean dish with a savory and spicy flavor. The fish cakes are first wrapped in banana leaves and then grilled, so you can smell the faint scent of banana leaves. Eating fish cakes with white bread makes the taste of fish cakes more fresh and sweet. Coconut Ice Cream Sundae - $62 (Coconut Ice Cream Sundae) 📌Keeping the tradition and using our homemade coconut ice cream recipe served with pineapple, attap seed and mango puree The restaurant staff brought a rich ice cream dish that looked tempting and eye-catching. Three huge balls of coconut ice cream are perfect for two to three people to share. The coconut ice cream is homemade by the restaurant. It is not too sweet and feels fresh and smooth. Other toppings of Sun Di include pineapple cubes, sea coconut, popping pearls, mango sauce and peanuts, making the taste of Coconut Sun Di richer. My friend thought the mango sauce was a little too sweet. Chatterbox Café 📍Shop B110, B1/F, Victoria Dockside K11 Musea, 18 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui #foodie #localtravel
