Ju Xing Hainanese Boneless Chicken Rice (聚兴海南起骨鸡饭) is a new food stall in the newly-opened Bukit Batok West Hawker Centre — its main stall is located in Geylang Bahru Market & Food Centre. The chicken rice stall serves its signature Hainanese boneless chicken rice (海南起骨鸡饭) and also shredded chicken macaroni (鸡丝通心粉).
Don't be surprised to see toy chickens hanging in the glass shelf. Hainanese-style steamed chicken meat is usually served slightly chilled or at room temperature to keep the gelatinous layer under the skin solidified, thus, they are stored in chiller and not hang up like roasted chickens or other roasted delights.
The Chicken Breast Rice Set (鸡胸肉饭套餐) is served with chilled steamed chicken breast meat, dried beancurd, a braised egg, beansprouts and picked vegetables. The braised egg is nicely-done without a greenish-grey layer surrounding the egg yolk — a result of overcooking. The rice is evenly flavoured with a nice aroma. The chicken breast meat is lean with not much fats, smooth, very tender and retained its juiciness and goes well with the ginger and spicy chilli sauce. The set meal is nice and satisfying.
Ju Xing's Chicken Thigh Rice Set (鸡尾饭套餐) will probably be tenderer and I will try it next time. And the macaroni seems good for breakfast or as light meal.
