Cheng’s at No. 27 - Hainanese comfort food

Found this place from the monthly magazine that the RC send out. I always read their food recommendations. Yes, I am auntie like that.

Cheng’s is a family owned restaurant specializing in Hainanese food. I follow up the magazine review from Cheng’s with ieatishootipost blog post on the restaurant. The food review seems promising!

The menu is simple and straight forward. The post on ieatishootipost covers like majority of food on the menu.

On this visit, we ordered the salted green mustard duck soup, crispy chicken with ginger and sambal French beans.

The salted green mustard duck soup is delicious but a tad too salty. After the meal, I had to keep drinking plenty of water but yet still feel quite thirsty. I am amazed that the duck meat in the soup is super tender and still juicy to eat after being boiled in the soup.

The crispy chicken with ginger is really good. I like the thin ginger slices and the chicken breast that actually tasted like pork. A quick blanch of oil with the slightly sour sauce made this an outstanding dish that goes well with rice.

The sambal French beans is light in its flavor with being overly spicy. The vegetables are very fresh and crunchy.

This is also a place I will recommend for simple Chinese lunch and/or dinner.
