Chapter 56 – Uncle Ang Chicken Rice Shop, Klang

Good chicken rice is all about the way the chicken is cooked, the texture of the chicken and most importantly, the rice. I am not a huge fan of chicken rice but sometimes, I must admit that chicken rice could be the best choice especially when you have an hour for lunch only – it is pretty much a balanced food where it has carbohydrates, proteins and fibres.

My parents used to pack chicken rice from different places in Klang but this place itself deserves some credit. Though the shop is located a distance from my residence area, the shop could sustain its business by just selling chicken rice. Started opening its stall in the morning at about 8am, the boss never manages to steal some time to rest. People constantly flock in to the shop and dine in there while some willing to queue up to pack the rice back home.

In one of the Sundays, I brought my bestie there for breakfast. We were greeted with a long queue yet, it did not stop us from changing our mind to change our breakfast venue. We ordered bits of everything so that we could taste the best out of it. Bestie ordered roast pork and roast chicken while I ordered steamed chicken and “char siew” – unfortunately, the boss got my order wrong and gave me a plate of steamed chicken and roast pork.

I must say that the pork in Klang tastes really different from other places and probably, that’s the reason why Klang is so famous with its bat kut teh. Juicy and succulent roast pork instantly opens our appetite in that morning despite the early hour. It is crunchy at the outside but it is moist in the inside, carrying the intense flavour of the roast pork.

Roast chicken on the other hand, is just so-so only. As for steamed chicken, the texture is really soft even though I opted for chicken breast. The steamed chicken is cooked at a well manner whereby the “juice” in the chicken is burst for every bite you put in the mouth.

Once we are done with our breakfast, bestie packed a packet of roast pork rice. Two hours later, he ate it and he complimented that the rice tastes much better when it is being packed rather than dining it on the spot. I guess it is because the gravy is all soaked into the rice already and thus, the rice tastes way delicious.

All in all, with our drinks on that day plus the addition pack of rice, the bill came up to RM 20.10. If you are at that area, you may want to try your luck and dine in there – I believe many have recognized the good chicken rice otherwise, the shop will not sustain by selling only one food and its competitor is just few doors away.

Uncle Ang Chicken Rice is located at: Jalan Dato Yusof Shabuddin 44, Klang, Selangor.
