The search is over

Not for KL-style Hokkien Mee (here I go again!) unfortunately, but for the next best thing: chicken rice. And I found it at the same place as Melbourne's best Char Kuay Teow. That's right, at my local, Malaymas! The last time Babes, Mans and I went there, we were flabbergasted when informed that they had run out. No doubt it was part of some elaborate conspiracy to keep me coming back, and come back I did last night. It's about 8.43 times better than any other chicken rice I've had in Melbourne. My only complaint would be that the rice could be slightly more fragrant, but of course that would mean slightly oilier too. But with such tender, tasty chicken, I can see why they usually sell out so quickly. Next time must call and 'chope' if possible...

Have you tried Malaya Inn in Doncaster ?

No I haven't, but the rest of my family have, and like it. Don't think they had the Hokkien Mee, though...

Oops, I was actually talking about the Chicken Rice at Malaya Inn. Personally I think its slightly better than MalayMas. Will look out for the Hokkien Mee next time.
