One of the best Hainan chicken rice in town.

Fine pork belly rice and Hainan chicken rice.

Chicken rice at 翠華

Place: 翠華, Central, Hong Kong.
Dish: 海南雞飯

This is a sore disappointment, especially because I had fond memories
of having the same dish a few years back. The chicken is bland and
without flavor; the soup seems to have come straight out of Campbell's
instant soup mix, and the condiments are so stale that they taste like
they were hastily readied from that end of a buffet line where the corny-as-hell, Space Mountain-esque ice sculpture was more interesting than the edible food itself.

泰妃海南雞飯

Place: 泰妃雞, Wanchai, Hong Kong.

This is a solid candidate for the best chicken rice in town. Neither
the chicken nor the rice is particularly enticing, but the combination
is a winning one. The lemongrass-flavored, herb-infused chicken
provides a layer of progressive richness to counterpoint the bed of
naked starch.

Hainan Chicken Rice

Place: a private kitchen. Beijing.

Good chicken, excellent presentation.
