Chilly evening last night so wife and I decided to skip the gym and instead visit the hainan chicken place a good friend noted was the "best hainan chicken on the island."We each ordered the hainan chicken combo which comes with 7-8 pieces of sliced chicken (w/ skin) on a bed of rice (1.5 bowls) + a drink. At 40 HKD, the price is very reasonable (expected 50 each compared to cha-chan tangs). The chicken was "ok" at best as it wasn't as flavorful as I'm used to. The rice was warm but appeared

The rice was warm but appeared a bit dry relative to the moist, chicken-broth enriched hot rice I'm accustomed to back home (bear in mind, my comparison is to a restaurant in Alhambra, CA, USA called "Savoy" which has a perpetual line all-day, and doesn't care to open on Sundays).
All in all, good but not great..If I were passing by and hungry, I might stop by but I wouldnt go out of my way again to eat here.
