Special Shanghai Tim-Sum @ Margaret Drive

When you make a trip to Margaret Drive, you got to try the Popiah and the Guo Tie.
One colleague ordered some Guo Tie for us, while another ordered 2 popiahs.



Here's the Guo Tie, 8 pieces for $4.
(Think it was 10 pieces for $4 previously)



It's nice and crispy. You should try it too if you are around.




Since I took the photo, here's the popiah. It's from the ground floor. Colleague said that the skin's made by the son upstairs. ;-)

Sin Kee Famous Chicken Rice @ Margaret Drive

A colleague drove us out for a quick lunch yesterday. Our destination was the Margaret Drive Food Centre.

What did we have? The famous Chicken Rice of course! It's on the upper floor of the food centre. Though there's not many stalls on this level, but that does not mean the place is empty. The tables are all occupied with chicken rice lovers.

(I was sitting a bit far and was too lazy to walk nearer to take a proper photo of the stall)
If you notice that there's only 1 chicken hanging there, it always is. When you order, they will bring out the chicken from a container. :-)



Our chicken... the big plump juicy chicken with sesame oil and light soy.
(It makes me wonder how the Poulet de Bresse will taste like)



And our rice....



Portions of chicken for 3 with 3 plates of rice, $13.

Just in case you get confused, the official name & address of this food centre is Commonwealth Avenue Food Centre at Commonwealth Avenue. Most people know it as Margaret Drive Food Centre because you enter via Margaret Drive. It does sound nicer too.
