Bedok Corner Hawker Centre - my primary aim whenever i visit this farfetched food centre is to have a bowl of that delicious cheng tng and therefore, the choice of main meal is always secondary.
That's when words on signboard play a very important role in my decision making process. It's not so much an affirmation that the food is good; just that it would be justifiable to condemn the place if the food turns out worse than expected.
"The Best Selling Nasi Ayam Penyet" looked pathetically insufficient. I am at fault here as i neglected to inform the stall owner that i would prefer to have "thigh", which always turn out to be juicier and slightly bigger in portion.
As expected from breast meat, it was too dry for my liking although i would love to add that it managed to exude the flavourfulness that any good quality ayam penyet [by the way, ayam penyet means smashed chicken in Malay] should have.
Chilli, ever a major determinant when it comes to the abused chicken, was sweet while hot; leaving that irritating tingling after-sensation on my tongue and lips that could only be remedied by a cooling bowl of Ye Lai Xiang Cheng Tng!

Do i think that it is the best selling ayam penyet? Maybe in the context of within the hawker center.

ReplyDeletebut i dun make up my face..... :(
ReplyDeleteWent for lunch at this stall today.
ReplyDeleteI dont deny that it used to be good but today i was served with a chicken that looks super dry and the meat was quite hard.
It is very obvious that the chicken was kept overnight and was fried a few times as the meat was dry too.
Disappointing. I didnt even finish the plate.
Would suggest the stall next to it instead.
Ya, the meat was dry the last time i tried it too! You love ayam penyet? Try the one at seah imm hawker centre; http://cavinteo.blogspot.sg/2010/02/aspirasi-food-stall-seah-im-centre.html
DeleteChef was not wearing his mask properly and talked to the customers when preparing the food. One plate of ayam penyet costs 5.80, but he insisted on charging 11.80 for 2 even after i explained that his math is wrong �� he also wanted to charge extra for more chilli.. last time im ordering from this stall
ReplyDeletethat's terrible!
