Hainanese chicken. Inspired by the guy looking for a restaurant in Toronto.
Inspired by the guy that was looking for a good hainanese chicken dish as I was in the same journey as I love this dish.
Haven't found a place yet in Toronto that makes me want to go back so made it myself.

New Hong Kong Bistro on Dundas has the best Hainan Chicken I’ve had in Canada.
The owners are also really old fashion in a great way, polite, professional and not pushy at all.
The pickled daikon and carrots they carry are also amazing for cutting through the fattyness of the chicken along with their garlic ginger dipping dish.

Have you tried thai nyyom? They operate on a very small menu (2-3 dishes available always and usually a special), so the dishes they do make are focused and EXCELLENT. I’ve had the Bourdain vetted hawker chicken rice in Singapore and the Thai nyyom version is honestly not far off. https://www.thainyyom.ca/

That looks great! Love all the extra cucumber. Is there a recipe you can share?

I have only had it 3 times in Toronto. I like Thai Nyyom’s Thai version.

If you have a stove that you can slow simmer and a pot big enough for a chicken, you can make this.
I’d like to know what made it so good that it got Michelin rated. The craze after it made popular media was unbelievable.

Jackpot on Spadina had the best Hainanese chicken I’ve had at a restaurant. Their rice was just on point. Too bad they closed down.

Kiss My Pans has the best

Great to see! There’s a halfway decent budget version at Pine House Cafe (Revel Rd, North York). I think the best version comes from Kiss My Pans (they also offer a Singaporean roasted version).

A new restaurant near Bay/Wellesley just opened, and they specialize in Hainanese chicken: Nanyang Fusion(南洋鸳鸯)
Has anyone had the chance to try it?

Restoran Malaysia in Richmond Hill is the closest to home (Malaysia) I’ve tried in the GTA

There’s this pretty good one but thing is they give the hainanese an ice bath prior to serving (i prefer without the ice bath). Its on bay and grosvenor area
