I always have avoided doing touristy things, but one day I decided to do something touristy for a change here in Singapore. So I headed to Maxwell Food Centre in Chinatown to try Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice!
Most people know and have heard of Tian Tian from Anthony Bourdain's programme, "No Reservations". It has also been awarded and written up about for being Singapore's best chicken rice.

The idea is that the ice would lock in the moisture and the natural oil of the steamed chicken, making the meat retain its juiciness.
Now I see the hype over Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice. It's definitely as must try for tourist or anyone who just loves chicken rice!
Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice made it to the Michelin Bib Gourmand for 2016.
The star of the Tian Tian's chicken rice (for me) would really be the rice. The rice is basically a meal in itself. It's delicious, flavourful and fragant. Without the rice the chicken would just be cold steamed chicken, but with the rice, there is a nice balance between cold and warmth and juiciness and flavour.
