This chicken didn't look smashed to me. I was thinking splintered bones but apparently, all the smashing did was to break the meat (tenderised?!) and made them easily removable from the bones.
Aside from being "smashed", the ayam penyet tasted like the regular fried chicken from Muslim chicken rice stores. The only difference was the sambal spruced flavours by quite a bit. That sambal was not bad. This stall in Swee Sian Yuen Eating House located at Chong Pang central claimed to be a branch of the original that hails from Changi Village where the ayam penyet rose to fame as a dish. I wonder how it stacks here versus the original. For Malay fried chicken rice, this was decent stuff.

Hey dude you may wanna try the ayam penyet at lucky plaza..think it's at level 4 if i'm not wrong. Not very hard to spot cause of the crowd there.
The dish is served with tempir (not sure about the spelling but it's deep fried peas), beancurd and occasionally some kangkong. But the kick in this ayam penyet dish is the belachan chilli...packs quite a punch and its goes really well with the chicken and side orders of keropok.
And while you're at it try some "happy soda" (I know, the name sounds really dumb) to go along with it.
I've heard about that before actually, but a friend of mind told me about the one at Chong Pang and brought me there. I wouldn't mind trying the one at Lucky Plaza.
