Ask any Singaporean for local food recommendations and Chicken Rice will always make it in the list of must-eats. Where I grew up, chicken rice wasn't what I know it to be now. When my little town was introduced to "Singapore Chicken Rice", it simply blew my mind. How could something so simple - blanched chicken and rice, be so delicious and addictive?? Yes, the golden standard of chicken rice (in my hometown) is to be as good as "Singapore Chicken Rice" (well, the name of the shop IS also Singapore Chicken Rice. Haha). Fast forward 30 years later, here I am, in the motherland of THE chicken rice that I lusted for throughout my childhood. And my love for chicken rice brought me to this nondescript little place along Outram Road - Kampung Chicken Eating House.

Just look at the glisten of the silky smooth chicken skin..
