Revisiting Xiang Jiang Soya Sauce Chicken (香江豉油鸡) and the conclusion is......

I've been doing a bit of sui gao comparisons against Xiang Jiang and Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Noodle Rice because these were a cut above most of what one can get out there. I wanted to decide which was the one I preferred more. So this was the one more visit to Xiang Jiang because it's been a while and in that while, I've been eating at Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Noodle Rice a few times.

The sui gao is impressively sized. 90 cents here versus $1.20 from Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Noodle Rice. Loaded with minced pork, shrimp, black fungus and diced water chestnut. I remember ranking this one a bit higher previously because of the water chestnuts. I got regular egg noodles today.

The texture seemed a bit loose with the minced stuffings from today - definitely not as packed as the other sui gao. I'd say they're still very good but I think I prefer the firmer stuffings from Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Noodle Rice. Not dissing this one at all and I'll be happy to eat them when I'm in the vicinity.

The tender herbal-ish soya sauce chicken is delicious. Back to topic, I have decided that the stall at Beauty World won this round for the dumplings.
