SinoSoul explores two takes on Hainan chicken rice today, the $5.70 version at El Monte’s obscure, Vietnamese Tay Do Quan Hy, and the $12 plate at Downtown’s popular, Singaporean-influenced Spice Table. Sino slaps Spice, calling the chicken prep “atrocious” and the sauce short of a few details, while deeming Quan Hy’s version vastly superior. The scribe even vaults this Viet version ahead of the Hainan chicken rice at Savoy, the current standard-bearer of the dish, based in Alhambra. [SinoSoul]
