One whole piece of Hainanese Chicken is priced at $58 (all food stuffs are for take-away only). There is an enticing yellow skin colour. It is good for party and group gathering.
There is a believable thin layer of oil on skin and meat. It is tasty and has a well-balanced taste and flavour. The meat texture is still bouncy and chewy, and surely not tough. It is much tastier than the chicken offered and claimed by those famous Chinese restaurants.
Each piece of chicken is wrapped by paper. Hygiene is ensured, to a certain extent.

Remarks: 1) cash only; 2) there is another shop in Mongkok.
Chuan Xiang is a cooked food shop, located in a residential area. If not because of a party held nearby, we really do not know there is such a tasty chicken shop.
Hainanese chicken is the signature item of Chuan Xiang. Apart from this signature chicken, it also sells chicken wing, chicken feet, and braised lamb. But these have not yet tried this time. Hainanese chicken has a well-balanced taste and flavor, its meat is still bouncy and not tough. For a piece of Hainanese chicken at $58 and such high quality, you should not miss this chance.
