Half Hainanese Chicken ($12.99 + tax) |
This is half a chicken, with a bowl of chicken rice. The chicken was deboned, and had a drizzle of soy sauce, which was nice. It was also very gelatinous, and not too meaty. Overall, the chicken was not bad, but not as good as I expected. While most places give their sauces separately, Cafe D'Lite's came mixed. I thought the chili sauce was nothing spectacular (a bit bland even), but it seems to be popular since I saw packaged bottles for sale! The chicken rice was moist and flavorful, but not as fluffy as I expected. For $12.99 (not including the rice) the portion is quite small.
Curry Beef Brisket ($10.85 + tax) |
I think I will be sticking with my regular Hainanese chicken joint since I wasn't too impressed with Cafe D'Lite, but I might just return for their curry. If you're looking for great Hainanese chicken, stay tuned for future blog posts!
