I’d heard a lot of good things about Uncle Lim’s chicken rice. Sold only on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, people have trekked from far and wide for it.
It was only a matter of time before I hauled my lazy ass down to East Croydon for a taste.
What did I think? Pretty authentic, the rice infused with stock and ginger, the chicken broiled and tender, the chilli sauce just perfect with a hint of sourness. The only thing missing was the soup. Why no soup? No idea, but I’d still go just for the chicken. And rice.
