For Penangites, food is not just about filling the stomach but its about memories, stories and flavours that shape our lives. When a beloved taste makes a comeback, it feels like an old friend returning after years apart.
The return of See Young Young Oyster Sauce Chicken Rice brought waves of joys and excitement to the netizens especially the boomers, gen x and millenials. For many of us, it is the taste of the paste, a flavours we dearly missed ever since the heartbreaking news of So Young coffee shop closure. Their legendary oyster sauce was unline anything else. No other stall could replicate it. Back in our teenage days, we would shamelessly ask for extra sauce, letting every grain of rice soak up its savoury goodness.
This time, we took away their steamed chicken rice, eager to rekindle those flavours etched in our memories. The moment we unwrapped the neatly packed chicken rice and that precious packet of oyster sauce, notstalgia hit hard. If not for our matuing waistlines, we would have poured the entire packet over the rice without hesitation, letting it flood every corner of the plate.
Just like before, the taste did not disappoint. The chicken was tender and succulent, the rice fragrant and perfectly cooked, and that oyster sauce still rice, gloossy and deeply satisfying. Their special chili sauce, with its tangy heat making each bite wholesome and utterly scrumptious.
Never did we imagine we would be able to share this unforgettable flavour with our kids. But now, the legacy of See Young Young Oyster Sauce Chicken Rice lives on. Such a delicious brigde between yesterday and today.
