The Home Cooking Dishes Restaurant is in real actual fact.... a house.... so I guess it really does adhere to its "Home Cooking" Slogan. Open from Wednesdays to Sundays for Lunch (12:30 p.m. - 2:30 p.m.) and Dinner (5:30 p.mm - 9:00 p.m.) and only for Lunch on Mondays, this place is not open on Tuesdays. Prior booking is actually required to get a place and this place is apparently famous for a few things. One being their salted chicken (RM 23.80 small; RM 46.00 large)
The salted chicken tastes like something your confinement lady would cook you. The sauce (which is undoubtly the most important part of the dish besides the texturr of the chicken) hits you with saltiness, a kick of rice wine and also a mild hint of gei ji. Texture of the chicken is smooth on parts that can't go wrong such as the thigh or rib area however meat from the breast area seems to be tough. One of the highlighting factors of this dish is the fact that it's made using free range chickens (choi yuen gai) and the chicken itself is quite lean.
In all this probably does taste a little like home. Tho my family would probably add in some ginger, and more rice wine.
Oh and this place is also interesting to noye for having only ONE chef. So unleas you're willing to wait for quite some time, this place might put you off.
And Gordon Ramsay will get a heart attack seeing only one chef in the kitchen.
