Hainanese Chicken Rice

Hainanese Chicken Rice

I went out for Hainanese Chicken Rice rice with some of my cari makan (looking for food) friends. We rendezvoused at the Aberdeen Centre's food court. There are some Asian food outlets in the food court that serves real authentic cuisines. We especially like the Hainanese Chicken Rice stall which serves authentic Chinese Malaysian Hainanese Chicken Rice and Curry Laksa Noodle. They call the Curry Laksa, Singapore Laksa. Whatever it is, I prefer the chicken rice over the laksa because the chicken rice is authentically how it is cooked and prepared in Malaysia.

The curry laksa is authentic too, but there are other type of laksa noodle that is found in Vancouver in other Malaysian eateries which can be as good and authentic. For example the Sarawak Laksa and the Penang White Curry Noodle. Other than this stall serving the chicken rice, the neighbour serves really awesome fried chicken wings and the queue for the fried chicken wings are always visible. People just line up for that fried stuff.

Aberdeen Centre's food court is one of the busiest I have seen. And the beverage and food stalls here are doing well but the two main stalls would be the chicken rice and the fried chicken wing stalls. They nearly always have a queue in front of the stalls. Most of the patrons in Aberdeen are Asians. That's the reason the food court has a variety of Asian cuisines. In the mall, there are several Asian restaurants like Chinese, Japanese and Korean.
