Chicken rice is the fastest and most filling food to go for during busy lunch hour especially if you are sick and tired of economy rice (which is no longer economical nowadays) and just want a simple meal with protein and carbs. One of our favourite chicken rice haunts is this place right opposite the Red Rock Hotel along Macalister Road.

Kowloon Hainan Chicken Rice

The proprietor has been selling Hainan chicken rice for decades and my husband frequented his stall so much since his college days that the proprietor remembers my husband even till now.

They sell steamed chicken or roast chicken but we ordered the roast chicken because this stall is famous for its tender roast chicken.

Another thing that’s special about this stall is the sauce. It is no normal light soya sauce but has some dark soya sauce with sugar and some chicken stock mixed in. Mix that into the fragrant chicken rice and you will not ask for anything more! The chicken is also very soft and tender, even if we order breast meat.

They are open daily from 11am onwards till about 3pm. They are closed on Mondays.

Rating: 7/10

Price: $$ (RM3.50 per person)

I normally do not know what to eat for breakfast and usually rely on cereal or just bread with a glass of milk. Yes, I still drink milk in the mornings although now I alternate between milk and soya milk. It’s a habit I picked up years ago and did not see any reason to stop.

Sometimes, when I have the time, I’d prepare french toast and eat it together with some fruits. Recently, I bought from nectarines which I felt are really delicious with its nice sweetish-sourish tang to really awaken the senses.

Nectarine

Here are some health benefits of nectarines:

1. It contains Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Niacin, Dietary Fibre, Carotenes, Potassium, Flavonoids and natural sugars

2. It is low in saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium.

3. It is great for maintaining optimum health

4. It is also great for weight loss so those aiming to gain weight should avoid this fruit.
