A couple of weeks ago, I learned about this western food stall serving enormous sized chicken cutlet at the coffee shop which is just across the road from Yishun SAFRA.

When I stepped into the coffee shop, the Do & Me chicken logo on the wall seem so vaguely familiar to me. I believe they used to be a franchise with many outlets across Singapore, you know, something like Tenderfresh (可爱鸡)?

I could be wrong though but when I tried googling, I can find nothing about them on the internet.

I was lost in thoughts in front of the logo when I heard the staff behind the counter asking for my order.

"One chicken cutlet" I replied curtly.

After making payment, I was told to collect it in five minutes time.

The chicken cutlet was indeed enormous, occupying almost half of the plate. Actually, I did not notice whether that thin layer on top is chicken skin or batter but it was not as crispy as I would like.

However, the meat is tender and lightly seasoned. It came with three standard sides such as baked beans, coleslaw and french fries.

Oh, and it came with a fried bun too.

So old school, I like!

They are pretty generous with the baked beans here. At some places, they only give you one tablespoon of it and you can literally count the number of beans on your plate.

The coleslaw were refreshing but can do with a bit more vinegar for the tangy flavor. It plays an important role by making the meal less jelat with all the fried stuff.

The french fries were a big disappointment as it does not taste freshly fried to me. They were either over-fried or have been re-fried for a second time. It was more brown than being a clean golden color. The only redemption is that it is unsalted.

Fried buns always get me excited when they are served alongside western food or fried chicken because for some reason, they reminded me of the good old days.
