Sheng Kee Cooked Food @ Geylang Bahru - The Soya Sauce Chicken Was A Disappointment

IMG_0114ed

I have known about Sheng Kee Cooked Food at Geylang Bahru Food Centre before it moves to the nearby coffeeshop at block 66 when the food centre is closed for renovation. In fact, I have asked my wife who works in the area about the stall but she has told me not to waste my calories. Hence I have never bother to check it out until recently when a group of foodie friends visited the stall. They seemed to have different opinions about the soya sauce chicken.

I took the opportunity on a weekend to visit the stall at around 3pm. There was no queue at the stall. I ordered a plate of the Soya Sauce Chicken Noodle ($3/$4). I observed how the stall prepared my bowl of noodles and I was disappointed. The stall actually pre-chopped the chicken into many different portions and let it rest on a tray (don't know for how long). The stall owner then took a piece of it and chopped it up into smaller pieces for my bowl of noodles.

I am not sure whether is it because my chicken has been resting for too long on the tray, it was rather dry. Compared to other soya sauce chicken I tried, this is also bland. Even the noodle was over cooked and soaky. I actually left half the bowl untouched.

Maybe taste is really subjective. Maybe I visited the place on a bad day. Maybe I did not get to eat their freshly cooked chicken. Maybe I should trust my wife's opinion. Be it what is the reason, my visit was a disappointing one.
