Hainanese Chicken Rice

Cafe Society

So, I am sitting here looking at threads instead of working, and I get a craving for Hainanese Chicken Rice.

It’s a simple dish, and I know that I lack the chicken stock (which is the secret)…but I digress.

I don’t want to fly to Singapore to eat it (it’s where I first tasted it).

Where in California can I find it, lah?

There’s one in San Jose; it’s “Con Ga Nam An”, at 348 E. Santa Clara Street.

Here’s the yelp review.

I ate there once and really liked it, but I have nothing at all to compare it to. I can’t tell you if it’s great chicken rice or so-so chicken rice. But the yelpers seem to like it.

California’s a big state, but if you’re in the Bay Area, Straitshas it. I’ve had it, and it’s good, but I have nothing to compare it to.
