Kedai Kopi Pak Hock Famous Chicken Rice

 Finally, we made it to New Pak Hock for Penang’s famous chicken rice! On our last trip, we saw the long queue and knew we had to try it. Luckily, this time, there was no queue at all!

The interior was simple and minimalist.

The service was friendly and welcoming. We ordered a mix of poached and roasted chicken with innards. The dish was beautifully plated with cucumber slices, drizzled with fragrant seasoning, and complemented by beansprouts and spring onions.

Chicken & Innards

The presentation was fairly standard, with chili and soup served on the side. The chicken rice was delicious. The rice was fragrant, fluffy, and perfectly cooked, while the chicken was tender and juicy. The flavors were enhanced by the rich soy sauce and seasoning.

At the start of our meal, the lady offered us their preserved vegetables, and we agreed to try them. I had never had this combination before! The dish, made with pork and preserved vegetables, had a comforting, homely feel.

Instead of being salty, it leaned towards a sweet and sour profile, making it incredibly appetizing. A closer look at the ingredients revealed a surprise with pineapple included! Wow!

I'm delighted that our simple meal turned out to be both satisfying and delicious, made even better by the warm service. The glowing reviews are truly well-deserved! For anyone visiting Penang, I highly recommend trying their chicken rice.
