5-Star Hainanese Chicken Rice & BBQ Pork

Giving a little random shot on where to eat, since we spent all day in City Mall, so the first place that caught our eye was 5 Star Hainanese Chicken Rice & BBQ Pork

Location: Outside City Mall, one of the blocks where restaurants are centred, ground floor


Setting: Typical Chinese (in this case Hainanese) kopitiam setting
Atmosphere: 8.5/10 (a really huge patronage despite being quite late in the night, way past usual dinner time and the tables were 2/3 full when we were there. We were lucky to be there a little early to grab the last seats)
Design: 7.5/10 (convenient, wide-open space, nice and simple)

Drinks: Chinese tea all round
Presentation: 5/10 (standard presentation)
Taste: 5/10 (standard taste)







Food: Half a steamed chicken, Japanese tofu, veggies and pork ribs with servings of rice
Presentation: 9/10 overall (absolutely delicious and appetizing-looking, makes my mouth water like crazy)
Taste: 9/10 overall (the chicken was tender and juicy, with the skin absolutely melting in your mouth, the tofu is cooked to perfection with the texture and taste that also melts in your mouth, the veggies fresh and crunchy and the pork ribs are gnawing-tastic!)

We had an absolutely satisfying meal here, and it is a joy to eat every last bit of the food. In fact my mom in law ended up helping the men finish up the whole lot! LOL! A super recommendable place to go to!
