This is a stall with some history and was handed over to a new generation in recent years. I walked past it a couple of times and they were recently featured on a YouTube channel, so I decided to try it for lunch.
We got a whole chicken and a plate of bean sprouts to share. It worked out to around $8.45 per pax, which I think is quite affordable.
The rice was a little disappointing as they were no longer in whole grains. I quite liked the chicken tender, it was quite tender. I also like the sliced cucumber that they lined the bottom of the plate with, and because of how they were sliced, they really absorbed the sauces well.
Worth a try if you are in the area.
One popular chicken rice stall in Chinatown Complex many years ago before they went on a prolonged hiatus, but came back with a new generation. Currently still pretty popular considering that a queue formed up as soon as it opens.
They only sell steamed chicken rice and plates their rice in their iconic small blue bowl. The chicken was tender and the sauce was a good mix of soy sauce and chicken oil, not too overly salty. The rice came out hot, had a good chicken flavour and good amount of oil. There is no need to drench the rice with the chicken sauce or the other sauces as itself alone is already flavourful. In chicken rice, the rice should always be more savoury than the chicken and this is the case here at Heng Ji.
I wish that the rice I ate today would be a little more fluffier as I felt the rice was a bit overcooked. The rice was clumping a little bit texture wise.
I am glad that their stall legacy has been passed on to the new generation and they have managed to retain mostly the quality of the dish.
Located inside the Chinatown market, 2nd floor. A simple chicken rice stall to try out. Chicken is okay, portion is perfect for 1 pax. Their chili is on the spicier side but the garlic sauce is a little bland. Many stalls are closed early, gotta be there in the evening for dinner.
I had the tentacle dish and ‘wet’ and it was delicious. The sauce for the tentacles was spicy but yet still taste good. The cocktail made for me was excellent.
My go to place to chill and enjoy the food. Love the music and drinks are simply refreshing. Bartender is super creative . Service is top notch . Look forward to my next visit 😊
Keep it up 👍
From the sign board outside to the huge wine collection inside. Foreplay is truly a place to be!

What stands out is the artwork on the wall!
