Having established 2 outlets in Sungai Petani for more than 20 years, Loo Kee is a first times venture to Penang Island. Their signature braised chicken is braised for up to 3 hours with a concoction of spices and herbs such as five spice powder, star anise, onion and many more to yield an unique taste, and at the same time rendering a more tenderized and juicy chicken meat. After that, the essence from the braising process will be used to glaze the chicken meats, imparting an irresistible aromatic sensation.

Besides, Loo Kee also uses chicken with larger size for braising process, that is why we can feel a more compact chicken mass.

The char siew is also prepared using similar braising method, rendering a subtle aromatic flavour. Though glazing the char siew with the lor essence is not a normal practise but you should do it here as it yields an unique and pleasant taste.

Of course, there are other options such as lobak which is pack with spices, or crisp roasted pork that come with crackling sound when you chew on it. Balance the carnivorous diet with some braised egg or bean sprouts.

Do not miss out their own made chili sauce that goes well with all the ingredients. It is made from mixture of ginger, big and small chili that gives a slight hot sensation.

Though oil rice will make a better choice to complement the chicken and pork. Health conscious patrons can opt for white rice too. A little secret here: glazing the oil rice with the lor essence is more than enough to make a good lunch for us! Otherwise, a bowl of chicken porridge should be able to whet your appetite.
