Clay Pot Chicken Rice

Clay Pot Chicken Rice

I remembered there is a back lane clay pot chicken rice stall in Chinatown, Kuala Lumpur where I used to frequent when I was living and working in Kuala Lumpur. At that time, that clay pot chicken rice stall served really good clay pot chicken rice and may even be one of the best in town. Although, the stall was located in one of the many back lanes in Chinatown, it was still a popular destination by the city folks that worked in the area.

Chicken Rice with Dark Soy Sauce

Clay pot chicken rice is a favorite Chinese Malaysian cuisine that is found served predominantly in the Klang Valley. When I was growing up in Penang, I never did come across this chicken rice cuisine except in one coffee shop in Pulau Tikus when the coffee shop introduced the most popular cuisines from Klang Valley and one of the cuisines was this chicken rice cuisine. So, it was rare to find really authentic clay pot chicken rice stall outside Klang Valley.

And a few years later, I stumbled upon another stall serving really good and flavourful clay pot chicken rice as the Chinatown clay pot chicken rice stall in the food court of Ipoh's Jusco. Then after, every time I drive through Ipoh, I would stop by to enjoy the clay pot chicken rice served in the food court of Jusco. I learned that the best clay pot chicken rice cuisine depend on the type of dark soy sauce and combination of the right ingredients.
