Eng Kee Chicken Wings has recently opened their fourth outlet at Beauty World Food Centre. Needless to say, I had to go check it out for I am a fan of their fried chicken wings.
Although their outlets are all located in the West, this stall is by far, the nearest and most convenient for me.
I have not been to Beauty World Food Centre for a short while and I am taken aback by the sudden influx of new stalls during this visit. I will write about them in my subsequent posts.
Some things never change. For me, it is always the "holy trinity" of fried bee hoon, fried chicken wing and cabbage whenever I visit any economical bee hoon stall.
And because Eng Kee's chicken wings are so popular, they literally fly off the shelves!
I simply had to order an additional piece. Who wouldn't? There are people who came specially for the wings and would often order by the dozens. Just ask PM Lee!
My order of fried bee hoon (80¢), two fried chicken wings ($2.60) and cabbage (50¢), came up to $3.90.
Remember to splash on their special chili sauce which is super good. If only they provide green pickled chili as well, that would be marvelous!
From the hot, crispy batter to the succulent flesh, there is nothing to dislike about these well-marinated wings.
However, I cannot say the same for their fried bee hoon.
I have tried the main outlet at Commonwealth Drive and the branch at Redhill Food Centre but I find the bee hoon consistently bland and rubbery making it hard to swallow.
I had to force it down my throat with plenty of the chili sauce. Surprisingly though, the fried bee hoon here at Beauty World is tastier and I might say more palatable than the other two.
Compared to a regular economical bee hoon stall, Eng Kee may have much lesser selection to offer but it is good enough for me.
After all, the star here is their fried chicken wings while everything else is just a bonus.
I like how everything is affordably priced. This kind of pricing is what I truly call economical.
One thing baffles me though: Why is Eng Kee using Yan's signboard?
