Hainan Chicken House | 海南鸡记

Malaysian restaurant · Borough Park

@infatuation

"Hainan Chicken House specializes in perfect Hainanese chicken, served wrapped up in a big square of butcher paper to evoke the feeling of a hawker stall. The whole chickens dangling in the window of this restaurant in Sunset Park, and the decorative wall tiles showcasing different chicken breeds should get you in the mood for their namesake dish. Make sure there's an order of their excellent curry laksa and the schmaltzy Hainanese chicken liver mousse on your table, too. On weekends, they rotate through worthwhile specials like Singapore Chili Crab—so pay attention to the whiteboard behind the counter." - neha talreja, carina finn koeppicus, bryan kim
