Seijo Ishii's "Singapore-style Hainan Chicken Rice" won the "Excellence Award" at the "Bento / Side dish Award 2017" sponsored by the Japan Supermarket Association of Japan. To commemorate this, it will be on sale for a limited time from January 10th at stores nationwide (excluding some stores). The price is 646 yen (tax included).

Out of more than 50,000 entries, the bento that won the excellence award that it can only be given to the top 4 products in the supermarket format / bento category. I also tried it at the En-eating editorial department!

◆ Rice is authentic Thai rice

Rice is made by boiling long and thin grains of Thai rice in a chicken glass soup. It is mixed with finely chopped ginger.


Each grain of fat is fluffy and the texture is smooth. The more you chew, the more mellow the chicken taste will exude. Ginger's crispy texture and refreshing spiciness are accented.

◆ Chicken is moist and thick

The chicken is moist and tender, and the juicy umami and saltiness go well with the thick, sweet and spicy sauce. This sauce is said to be a combination of Chinese soy sauce and Sea Udam (rich soy sauce made from soybeans). It has a faint sour taste and is appetizing!


The cucumbers and tomatoes laid under the chicken also change the taste and texture. If you sprinkle it with coriander topping and chili sauce attached separately if you like, the scent of herbs and spicy sauce will fill your mouth with an ethnic taste ...




It seems that the cooks of Seijo Ishii developed this product by inspecting a number of local food stalls and restaurants in Singapore. It was a full-fledged finish. Still, it is a good impression that the two kinds of soy sauce are combined and devised to bring them to the seasoning that Japanese people like. If you like ethnicity, please give it a try!
