Hainanese Boneless Chicken Rice 海南起骨鸡饭 - Golden Mile Food Centre

This is the best chicken rice in town. I don't eat any other, just this stall at Golden Mile Food Centre ala Beach Road Army Market's basement. The food centre was closed for renovation for a few months ago. We stopped going there for 6-8 months and didn't know it was opened till a while ago. And in that whole time, we didn't have any other chicken rice. 

There is no where else we will go for chicken rice. Nothing beats the fragrant oily rice, the smooth salty sauce, the soft tender chicken. We go there pretty often, and so much so that the auntie at the stall knows I like to have dark sauce on my rice and will draw lucky words or numbers on it.

For those who like chicken rice, this is it. You don't have to look further.

Pretty Pretty Reds

Meimei has this hobby of collecting Chinese New Year red packets. It's a hobby I'm happy to encourage. Red packets don't take up much space, they are pretty much free, doesn't take a lot of time investment as it's only once a year thing and I'm sure they would become collector's items in years to come. 

She gained this hobby from Mami who had started collecting years before. Meimei went one step further by casing the nice ones in clear plastic film bags. You can see her excitement in the glimmer in her eyes when she chances on rare beautiful red packets. To be honest, I'm also attracted to the pretty reds. Nothing says Happy Chinese New Year like a spread of red packets to brighten up the place.
