Loy Kee Chicken Rice & Porridge (黎记雞飯粥品), Whampoa Makan Place

Loy Kee Chicken Rice & Porridge (黎记雞飯粥品), Whampoa Drive Makan Place

I've eaten at Loy Kee at Balestier many years ago but don't remember if I've had their chicken rice at the food centre (#01-49/50 Whampoa Drive Makan Place, 91 Whampoa Drive).

Ordered boiled chicken drumstick (鸡腿) with liver and egg.

The food had the hallmarks of a competent/experienced chicken rice stall. What am I saying? These guys are pretty well known. Chicken was smooth and relatively tender with liver that wasn't overcooked. In my head, the old Sin Kee still beats this. But I'll get over them.

Rice had a mild hint of ginger in it but not so much that it put me off. In fact, I liked Loy Kee's rice. Their chilli sauce was salty and garlic-ky without lime. Wouldn't mind eating from them again.

I'm assuming it's the same. Maybe the website only states that one because it's the only branch that does online ordering? Notice that their website is just and order form and little else?

But both branches open for walk in customer.So the website should have 2 branches details.

Good point you've raised there. Nothing from their social media points to the shop at Whampoa food centre as well. Maybe they aren't related after all.
