The Canteen Room, Jalan Yap Kwan Seng

The Canteen Room at Megan Avenue II, Jalan Yap Kwan Seng serves perhaps the most yummylicious Chicken Curry in the whole wide world... I am not talking about the Mamak or Indian-styled curry (like at Kanna Curry House - nothing beats the curry there of course) but the type of chicken curry you'd get at home. I would say that the food here is more to Nyonya or Kopitiam Style but definitely has more to offer than the other Kopitiams you might have visited.

Chicken Curry with White Rice

There are three choices of Chicken Curry dish you can choose from; Chicken Curry with White Rice, Bread or Roti Jala. I've never tasted the Chicken Curry with Roti Jala or Bread but I have surely for umpteenth time ordered the Chicken Curry with White Rice for lunch. What's so nice about the Chicken Curry? Yup, it has loads of potatoes and considerably good portion of Chicken Meat plus the dish is prepared with lots of (I mean LOTS of ginger).

Try it Then You'll Know how Fantastic the Chicken Curry is

Since the restaurant is very near to my office, I frequent this place for some really good and fulfilling dishes. However, there would usually be limited places for lunch and if you're late most of the dishes would be sold out and you'd have to come back the next day as the place is not open for dinner. I would usually go to the Canteen Room at around noon if and whenever I decide to have lunch there.

Other super delicious food I've tried @ Canteen Room are: Yam Cake, Kuey Teow Goreng, Rice served with Chicken and vege (can't recall the name), Nasi Goreng Canteen, Nasi Indo Siam (A dish with fish - bukan I yang order nih), Rolled Chee Cheong Fun (Photos of Nasi Indo Siam and Rolled Cheec Cheong Fun are copyright of Gingerlyyours) and definitely their thirst quenching Honey Lemon Drink.

p/s I always ended up gobbling everything up before realizing I've not taken any photos of the food to make someone in Dubai drool over them and hate me more. No photos of some of the dishes mentioned till I order them again, hopefully in the near future. I just can't get over the Chicken Curry lah!
