Long Jiang Chicken Rice @ Chulia Street, Penang

Here now, chulia street has added another Chicken / Roast Pork Rice Stall (Siu Lap Fan in conto) member just besides the Air Asia Office and but don't be confused, this is definitely not Goh Chew Kee Chicken Rice (吴绍泽) but they are neighbourhood.

Ching Tien Roast Chicken / Pork Rice (青天) & Goh Chew Kee Chicken Rice (吴绍泽) are the most famous along the road for many years.....but, i never try Ching Tien before due to the long que for most of the time! and Goh Chew Kee surely will not be my choice! famous doesn't mean good...well, leave it to you to find out......heeee

Anyway, my uncle who is working in town's hostel, introduced this newly opened Long Jiang Chicken & Roast Pork Rice to us, and mentioned about their big portion of Kiam Chai Boey been served without any charges and the chicken is good too. So, we decided to make our way to this yummy chicken on last 2 week, Saturday around 11am near to 12pm.


see the picture? Airasia office is just right to the next door. We were just wonder why just have few table having lunch inside the Long Jiang coffee shop but Goh Chew Kee has already crowded with "Fans".

Anyway, since we were there to try my uncle's recommendation, so we have ordered a plate of Roast & Boiled Chicken, Chicken Gizzards and Char Siew for 2. We didn't order any Roast Pork is because it looks dried.

A plate of Oil Rice with hint of chicken broth flavour (original chicken broth not MSG), not salty & heavy, it goes well with chicken...

Rating: 3.5/5

Smooth and Tasty Boiled Chicken
Actually we have ordered both boiled & roast chicken but ended up just 2 pcs of roast chicken has been given....haaa. some how the roasted chicken was slightly dried and taste just normal, so we didn't bother it much. And comes to the boiled chicken, the meat was pretty tender and smooth, and the skin can easily dissolved in your mouth! wonderful.
Rating: 4/5


Chicken Gizzards, kinda small in size, but very springy. The soy sauce on the plate was pretty appetising, it taste different compare with chicken sauce. tiny drops of chili would goes well with gizzards.
Rating: 3.8/5

wah...thinly slice of Char Siew and the meat evenly surrounded by lark....OMG. I believed they chosen the correct part of meat but unfortunately it was over flavour. Too sweet and the meat was cutted too thin, can't really taste the meat but just the glace sauce only.....gee, really wasted.

Kiam Chai Boey

Their worker is friendly and good in service, after seeing our soup has gone fast, they automatically "top up" another half a bowl of soup for us. not just only soup, but alot of vegetable and some meat too. Well, to be honest, their soup is too sour for our taste bud, end up we left the whole bowl there...wasted....

Rating: 3/5

After we finished up all the items above, we ordered another plate of boiled chicken, gizzards & rice again! haha...really bad eating habit nowadays.

while we were enjoying our lunch, the tar pau crowd has come in a sudden, means they have their fans too. Probably is just because of newly opened so would not have much people knows about them. After chatting with the worker, he saids the boiled chicken was prepared by himself, but those roasted chicken, pork, and char siew were took from supplier. And he told us, he sells Ipoh Taugeh Chicken in the same Kopitiam at night. So, we might have to visit them again at some other night...

On average, I would give this place:

3.3/5 for value
3.8/5 for taste & texture
4/5 for service
4/5 for cleanliness
3.5/5 for atmosphere
