    Chinatown Complex is a culinary treasure trove, housing numerous famous food stalls. Among these, Ma Li Ya Virgin Chicken 瑪莉亞處女雞 stands out not only for its unique name but also for its specialty in soy sauce chicken.

    Ma Li Ya Virgin Chicken at Chinatown Complex Market & Food Centre needs no further introduction but, unless you have eaten it before, you would never have guessed that what I had here is a plate of chicken rice because frankly, it does not even remotely resemble one.

    The chicken drumstick was tender and flavourful, with a sweet flowery flavour from the qq soft skin, which had taken on the dark brown of the soy sauce.

    Fairly reasonable prices for a causal Japanese meal in Chinatown even though the location doesn’t remind me of Japanese food in the first instance.

    Overall, it was a unique yakitori experience at Kakurega.

    Ambience at Kakurega (The Lair) carries an understated charm. Cozy, rustic, and intimate, the 3-story bar features 4 private rooms, with carefully partitioned open seating areas that manage to feel like private dining. Pops of colour from vibrant paintings and colourful Japanese fans adorn the sleek black walls, while sturdy wooden tables and comfortable booth seats are illuminated by bright spotlights overhead.

    The combination of pork lard, perfectly cooked noodles, and Mr. Tan’s expert frying skills creates a dish worth waiting in line for!

    The stallowner really displayed dedicated plate by plate frying. This was the wetter and not so sweet style of char kway teow. The kway teow had been fried well till slightly mushy, with egg nicely distributed and some crunch from the chives. It had quite good wok hei and pork lardy fragrance, although I found the flavour slightly restrained and not punchy or savoury or sweet enough. It tasted a bit like Penang kway teow, with the flatter taste profile.

    A plate of char kway teow that is well worth your calories!

    When I approached the stall, I was impressed by the little chicken bowls the wa kuih were in. So traditional! But alas, these were merely for display as my wa kuih was served in disposable plastic bowls instead.

    They are open as early as 7.45am till sold out. Have you tried Wa Kuih yet? Do have a try before such a traditional snack disappears from my sight.

    The wa kueh really depended on the slightly sweet brown sauce (like a less viscous chee cheong fun sauce) to do the heavy lifting in terms of flavour. The kueh itself seemed to lack the inherent kueh fragrance, and was a bit too firm from what I remembered, although the mushroom bits and hae bi studded within were a nice touch. The whole thing missed a touch of complexity and fragrance, and was a bit too clean tasting.

    Claypot & Cooked Food Kitchen is a nondescript looking food stall with an equally non descriptive name tucked away in a far corner in the "green zone" of Chinatown Complex Food Centre.

    Whilst the food here is certainly value for money, it is probably more suited for smaller groups than lone customers.

    Yuan Lang Soy Chicken Master is the underdog among all the big names. Hopefully, they can get picked up by the radar soon and receive the recognition they deserve.

    The chicken was smooth and the skin nicely flavoured and scented, although the flesh was slightly tough. The noodles were really qq and springy, had no alkaline taste and had a light savoury soy sauce flavour, from the one squirt of the soy sauce. A delicate and clean tasting plate.
