Coltplussport Turbocharged May 17, 2012 Share May 17, 2012 I also want to ask, at Hainan Island, where to find good & famous Wenchang Chicken eateries... Haikou, Sanya, Qionghai, Wenchang or Xinglong? Never been there, but heard there are 4 treasures namely wenchang chicken, jiaji duck, dongshan goat and hele crab. At first I thought I saw good wrenching chicken. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonTan 2nd Gear May 17, 2012 Share May 17, 2012 There is no such thing as nice wenchang chicken in hainan island. It's only nice in Singapore, where the oily rice, and young chicken and ginger condiment, combine to make it a special dish. If you go there....wenchang chicken is just a type of chicken grown in wenchang. People eat it like a normal chicken. Tough and meatless, thick and crunchy skin.

Damienic 5th Gear May 17, 2012 Share May 17, 2012 I tasted the wen chang chicken rice in Hainan Island. Nothing fantastic. My advice is that no need to try it is you are expecting something delicious. Try it only for the experience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armvalkyrie Clutched May 17, 2012 Share May 17, 2012 hi guys, There is actually a Hainan Wenchang chicken rice... I was there in 2009 Wenchang for a short trip and visited this original Hainan chicken rice... As far as I can remember, it was totally out of the world... don't think we ever will get used to such taste and texture of the chicken... meat was tough, bland, rice was dry and with no fragrance like we have here.. the whole restaurant was crowded, typical small town "cleaniness", oily floors, tables, chairs, even the doors... thinking back, perhaps I had visited the wrong restaurant! found a photo of the restaurant 2nd floor. the ground floor and the open riverside area was full, hence got to climb upstairs.. sorry no photos of the dish and rice istself, guess I was too shocked cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MBS350L Neutral Newbie May 21, 2012 Share May 21, 2012 Honestly, have tried geniune WenChang ji in hainan before. Found it to be great but nothing compare with our local version. Find that the meat there are firmer and tougher, not as smooth and silky. Notice that the skin are "yellower" than our local chicken. The rice also not as fragrant and tasty as the thai rice here in our restaurant. Boon Tong Kee still top my list. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
