Hock Jiu Chicken Part II
Boss had a seminar last night and anticipating that I might only reach home after 10 pm, I decided to pay a visit to my favorite economy rice stall at Bali-Bali for lunch. I had predicted that Hock Jiu chicken will be in the menu and I was right.
Check out how red the chicken is:
Compare that to Mom’s version:
Call me biased, but compared to Mom’s version, the one from the economy rice stall is sorely lacking in “heat” maybe because there wasn’t enough ginger. Still, I really wanna know how he got his meat to become so red.
Heard from E that the coffee shop where the stall selling the mee suah version of this dish had closed down, so to all the Floggers out there, keep your eyes peeled and let us know, ya if you find out where they relocated to.
But according to G, it wasn’t as good as what the reviews say.
Oh well, like what I told E, if their business is that good, they will definitely relocate somewhere else. It wouldn’t make sense for them to retire just because they don’t have a place to sell at any more.
But if I need my fix of the dish, I’ll just pester Mom to cook it again or go to Bali-Bali. It seems the guy makes the dish on alternate days.
