If I am ever given the option to only have three specific dishes for the rest of my life, I would choose chicken rice, fried chicken and char kuey teow. Wait, maybe it’d be chicken rice, fried chicken and wantan mee. Or perhaps it’d be... you know what, let’s just establish the fact that chicken rice would always make the cut.

So, when one gets invited by the CRG Chicken Rice Guys to try its version of one of my most favourite dishes, I couldn’t say no. Off I went on a Saturday morning, navigating traffic to get to the restaurant in Shah Alam – easily found thanks to Waze.
