It really took me a few years of coaxing.. However I lastly made my strategy to attempt the well-known Inexperienced Chilli Rooster Rice. This was all the way in which again in 2021!
I bear in mind I used to be reluctant to go to due to the brief working hours and infamously tremendous lengthy queues at their one and solely stall situated in Sims Vista. However after attempting for the primary time, I understood that the hype was not simply empty hype and why folks had been prepared to queue for this delicacy!
SPOILER ALERT: It’s quite a bit simpler to get pleasure from this dish now as a result of after a failed try and open a 2nd outlet, they lastly managed to get it achieved! They now have a 2nd outlet that opens within the evenings!
To start with, let me level out – this stall sells solely ONE dish and that dish is Inexperienced Chilli Rooster Rice. I’ve all the time had the notion that if a stall sells just one dish, that most likely signifies that they’ve mastered that one single dish to the purpose that they don’t must promote anything in any respect. Inexperienced Chilli Rooster Rice is the proper instance of this. They open brief hours on daily basis – from round 10am til 2pm – they usually usually are bought out earlier than regular closing time.
On the menu, you will notice solely the Inexperienced Chilli Rooster Rice listed as a dish. Every little thing else on the menu is an add-on. You may add-on Inexperienced Chili, Crimson Chili, Rice and you may even purchase solely Rice or solely Rooster. However the Rooster solely additionally prices $5 so that you may as properly get the principle dish on the identical value. Until you’re on a no-carb food plan or one thing 😛
Oh! Curiously sufficient, you don’t get any keropok (crackers) should you bungkus and you may’t purchase keropok on the facet. They apparently get the keropok from a particular provider so you’ve gotten some crunch together with your Inexperienced Chill Rooster Rice.
The dish itself appears easy however is SO GOOD I’ve actually gotta say!
The rooster will get a fast double fry (I imagine they serve solely the thigh half) and the flavours are improbable. Whereas the rooster is probably not juicy, the meat is certainly tender. You will get the flavour of the spices that marinate the rooster – flavourful even with out the Inexperienced Chili!
The star of the dish is clearly the Inexperienced Chilli. I had initially thought it was a model of Cabe Ijo however was pleasantly shocked that it’s really fairly completely different in lots of respects. Firstly, it’s not spicy (sorry to all you Hantu Chili!) and it’s not oily. The one seen components are inexperienced chili and onions which result’s a extremely distinctive and scrumptious flavour. It’s REALLY SEDAP GILER I’m not kidding. There may be additionally some sambal on the facet however I reckon the Inexperienced Chilli trumps all 😀
Anyhow, it’s all served with lightly-flavoured rooster rice which makes use of Basmati Rice (a pleasant contact in my books). The pictures you see have further rice added. I feel subsequent time I’ll add further rooster and Inexperienced Chilli as an alternative as a result of it’s simply superior 🔥
I can see why there’s a queue on the stall (generally even earlier than they open their shutters) and it typically strikes fairly quick. They do put a restrict on the variety of packets you’ll be able to order (I imagine to make sure the road doesn’t get held up for too lengthy). Total, I’d say it’s definitely worth the queue for positive. Be sure to order extra to make it value it since you’re gonna crave for it should you don’t get your fill 😛
They began in 1999 and apparently moved to Sims Vista in 2014. They did attempt to run a 2nd outlet at Geylang Serai for less than takeaways in 2023 however that was fairly short-lived. The excellent news is that they now have a 2nd outlet situated at Chomp Chomp Meals Centre! Even higher information is that it opens from 5pm til 9pm (or bought out) so should you can’t make it to Sims Vista for lunch, you’ll be able to head to Serangoon Gardens for dinner!
I hope they proceed promoting for a very long time as a result of thus far that is one in every of a form. Extremely advisable so that you can attempt! (And in addition extremely advisable to purchase further and ship to us LOL)
