Ricky's Chicken Rice - Adelaide

Have eaten here many times so I think it's time to review! Lovely chicken rice, delicious stock and sauces, my only small critique would be the way the chicken was cut this time, there were many many small bones throughout the dish that were loose and floating in the broth. I love that this chicken is always on the bone, but maybe a bit more care in the chopping of the chook next time. Still, I will be back!

Traveling from Melbourne, naturally we will pay a visit to the central market. Was delighted to actually found a food court with lots of choices and varieties there. On this occasion we had Hainanese Chicken Rice. We love it and honestly I miss it especially the silky smooth and succulent steam chicken and the spring onion and ginger dip. Yummm. Even my toddler love that dip. <br/ <br/ If I ever return to Adelaide for a visit this will be in my eat list. <br/ <br/ The rice itself was at the milder side but I like it because it work so well with the chicken, the sauce, chilli, dip and soup.

Ricky's Chicken Rice is a market institution. I opted for the Hainan Chicken Rice on this occasion. The chicken, as expected, was juicy and tender however, the sauces seem to have lost some of their punch and the chicken broth was lacking in chicken flavor.

Ricky might have sold up and moved on but his legacy as thr chicken rice stall in the central markets will be around for as long as the place is.I only ever get the chicken rice here but it really is rather good and for not a whole lot of money.

For once 'Special ' Fried Rice lived up to its name. This really is special. Chicken and prawns and bean sprouts and fried onion goodness. First time I have ever been asked if I wanted the fried rice 'spicy '. Say yes and thank me later<br/ <br/ <br/ <br/ ________________________________________________<br/ Update 10/3/17<br/ <br/ On a Friday night my daughter and I headed here before a cruise around the Market.<br/ <br/ Mee Goreng and Chicken rice.<br/ <br/ The Mee Goreng (medium chili) were spicy, salty hot and savoury with chinks of chicken, fish cake slices and some prawns. Delicious and came with a bowl of soup that helped deal with the spice heat.<br/ <br/ The chicken rice was very tasty. I 'm not getting into the argument about how authentic it was, but by golly it was a delicious meal.<br/ <br/ Honest and filling for not a whole lot of money.
