Old Town White Coffee: chicken rendang

HTs weekend routine is to jog around East Coast Park until we reach Playground@Splash for a nice Asian lunch.  And ang moh hubby, really prefers kopi-c than cappuccino.

Old Town has been a favorite of mine when i first had their Ipoh Chicken Hor Fun in Penang 4 years ago.  When they came to Singapore, we learn to love their...
Chicken Rendang (4/5) - small keropek or papadam or chips(however its called), sambal sauce, rendang curry chicken and of course, a cup of rice, all in a plate with brown paper...voila!  A perfect look of an asian dish.  Though we prefer, beef rendition, Old Town still met our expectations.  The spices used in the rendang blended well with the white meat.  It was not too spicy and the coconut milk sweetness counteracted the level of spice.  From the taste, it's well simmered and the chicken meat was very tender.  The sambal sauce was not too fishy and was a great partner with the white rice.

This would be our all-time favorite together with a cup of Old Town white coffee but we prefer the ones at East Coast Park than Suntec.
