Say where can you find awesome tasting chicken rice right in the heart of the city? We head to Purvis Street to find out!

Located just a stone's throw away from Raffles Hotel and Bras Brasah Complex, Chin Chin serves up one of the best Hainanese chicken rice I've tried, amongst other traditional Tze Cha dishes:



Chin Chin Yuan Yang

We ordered the Yuan Yang, which is a Chinese term for a good mix of roasted and steamed chicken.

The roasted meat is flavourful, while the steamed chicken is just succulent!



The chilli, when mixed with mashed garlic, is simply irresistible! However, the rice was not the most fragrant that I've come across.

We also tried the kambing (Mutton) soup, Chinese-style:



Chin Chin Mutton Soup

A good dose of wolfberries makes the soup sweet and the mutton is tender as well.
