Go-Ang Pratunam Chicken Rice!

First visit to Go-Ang Pratunam Chicken Rice! πŸ˜‹ This is the Bangkok khao man gai (Thai-style chicken rice) brand, famous back in its Pratunam home for poached chicken over chicken-fat rice, served with that punchy Thai soybean-chilli dip.

Taking the order(s):

The simple interior of the eatery:

Ordered the signature chicken rice ($4.50++) and braised pork (small size: $8++).

We found the chicken meat pretty normal, but the rice was nice, fragrant and savoury from the chicken fat and stock it’s cooked in, which is really the heart of a good plate of khao man gai. I would have preferred the braised pork to have more of a soya sauce depth, rather than the slightly sour note it had.
