Chicken n Rice, Hainan style

Saturday morning, we went up to my sister's place so I could help her finish out her baby registry (4 weeks till due date!), and started the day off with an early lunch at Savoy Kitchen in Alhambra, which my sister loves loves loves. My sister, brother-in-law and I all ordered the Hainan Chicken (6.75) which is pretty tasty. It's chicken pieces (I'm assuming steamed) with rice (I'm assuming cooked in chicken broth as it was quite tasty and moist), with some soy sauce, crushed ginger in oil sauce and a chili sauce. I can only eat so much chicken, but I love the rice. Even by itself. Okay, and mixed with a little of the chili sauce.

Hubster decided to change it up and ordered the Beef Brisket dish (6.75) which was Saturday's daily lunch special. It was beef brisket, potato and carrots cooked in a slightly creamy green mustard sauce (reminded me of a very brothy and buttery cream of broccoli or spinach), served with (regular steamed) white rice. The sauce was good.

And to drink, iced tea. Which they were constantly filling up, and once we were ready to go, they offered us lids for our plastic cups to take away. Nice.
