Bentong Chicken Rice

My plate of roasted chicken breast meat. There are no fats underneath the skin so I ate the roasted skins as well. Even thought it is breast meat, it is very tender and sweet.

A portion of mix steamed chicken meat with roast pork with rice costs MYR10.90 nett. The ginger dip is so tasty that we had to request for another portion and we finished eating all the ginger dip at the end of our meal. No MSG at all in the ginger dip as I was not tasty after eating so much of the ginger dip.

I requested for half a portion of rice that comes with my roast chicken and of course is charged the same price of MYR7.90 nett.

A small pot of water cress and pork soup for us to share at MYR7.90 nett.

As the prices are nett, the total bill came up to MYR26.70 nett for our early dinner.

The counter with all the roasted and steamed chickens faces the walk way so customers who pass by can see their products.

The other side of the counter that faces the interior of the shop

Bentong Chicken Rice serves chicken reared in Bentong. It is a new eatery in Jalil Link.

    1. If I go all the way to Bentong, I would eat Bentong durians instead. This roast skin is just golden, not those brown golden. I think the skins are marinated with not so much soy sauce so not dark lah. Nice for me, maybe not so nice for you since you would like siew yoke more.
