Nasi Ayam Chee Meng

It was Yeok Kai Seng who began the business in ’65. Fast forward 50 years, and the little stall set up along Jalan Klang Lama has branched out into a chain of chicken rice shops in the city. It’s a comforting, simple dish: a plate of silky smooth steamed white chicken in a pool of savoury soy sauce, with fluffy round rice cooked in chicken stock, and a small bowl of clear soup.
