Uniquely Singapore – Hainanese Chicken Rice
http://www.visitsingapore.com/…

If I can call anything comfort food, it’d have to be Hainan Chicken Rice.. sadly.. I had found nothing in Toronto comparable to the Singapore version.. until now! Thanks to Tiago’s & Mark’s recommendations, I found excellent substitute at Phoenix Restaurant (2 locations: woodbine/steeles, mccowan/hwy 7)… fresh, tender, springy, fragrant.. served with good chicken oil rice, the requisite garlic sauce and a thai sauce.. too bad they don’t have good chili to serve with it! But I’d still be willing to have this once a week!
