Although chickcen rice is the most common and seems easy to make yet one of the most famous lunch in local Malaysian. However, there is always saying that the easiest is always the hardest and to cook a perfect chicken rice meal is not as easy as it seems. In my opinion there are three (3) aspect of chicken rice set to be consider delicious which are the combination of (1) rice, (2) chicken and (3) the chilly sauce.

The restaurant is easily spotted at the corner of Happy Mansion Apartment but finding a table during lunch time may not be easy as the place normally will be pack of peoples.

You may be surprise that there are no chickens hanging there unlike those normal chicken rice stall. This is because the owner will roast the chicken while selling to ensure the customers enjoy the meal while it is still hot and juicy. The consideration presented really should be accredited because it really makes a different.

Special oil rice fragrant with garlic and ginger residue, typical sourish spicy chilly sauce (its really distinctive) to be paired with the chicken and complementary soup of the day to nourish your meal.

Unmatchable chicken which is juicy and tender with crispy skin. Although I have chicken brest which proclaim by many to be the tough and not being preferred. However, still enjoy it very much because it still taste piping hot succulent thus no matter which part of chicken you're having here will sure to a little extraordinary.

“Boon Fei Sao” (half fat and half lean) char siu will be a default order because too much fat is gross while the leanest pieces are not always tender. Char siu here is just nice coated with sweet soy based gravy.

Another top order at these place is the spicy and sour "Khai Choi" which will escalate your appetite to have more of it.

Definitely will revisit the place for lunch as the chicken and char siu taste still very much perched under my taste buds.

There are regular customer of Choon Yien, this place never fails to serve us with some above average cha siew (sweet bbq pork), siew yoke (roasted pork) and crispy skin chicken.

A perfect prelude to the hearty meal would be the complementary soup of the day. It varies from day to day where sometimes we get lotus root soup, chicken feet with peanut soup or the Chinese watercress soup, being our favourite.

A special mention to the chicken stock base rice, fluffy, fragrant with some garlic and ginger residue.

Choon Yien's char siew is simmered with some soy based gravy and sprinkled with the perfect amount of garlic crust. "Poon Fei Sao" (half fat and half lean) is our default order because too much fat is gross while the leanest pieces are not always tender. Boon Fei Sao is wonderfully tender and so, so succulent.

The siew yoke that looks promisingly good. Distinctive layer of crispy skin, fats and meats are felt in our mouth.

The crispy skin chicken is not your average roasted chicken that we found at anywhere else. It does require some skill to keep the chicken moist and the skin crispy because the chicken has to be air dried for hours so the skin becomes crispy when it is being deep fried.

Pricing is quite reasonable, it ranges from RM 5 (plain cha siew rice) to RM 10 per person (cha siew+siew yoke+chicken with rice).

Introduced by Chong Lim and manage to reach here by the help of GPS. It is easy to locate this restaurant as you turn into Fettes Park...As adviced by Chong Lim, please be early to this restaurant OR you have to wait for your turn...Crazeee queue!!!

Spring Roll (Hainanese Style) Stall

We did manage to order this as only two of us...Scare unable to finish it as the minimum order is 2 pieces (RM3.00 each)

Mushroom soup (RM3.00)

Not bad but I would prefer it serve with wild mushroom...This a bit too creamy!!

Holland Chicken (RM10.50)

The price are quite reasonable for a chicken chop if compared to KL...Anyway, it is something different from normal chicken chop as it served with pineapple and ham.
