Uncle Ray's Chicken Rice

Owner and chef Raymond Kiang centers the menu on a family recipe tracing back to Sergeant Kiang of Mandarin Hotels Chatterbox. Guests can order whole poached or roasted chicken hanging by the counter, paired with gingery rice, a clean broth, and a trio of signature sauces. The menu also features sides such as Chinese broccoli and coffee pork ribs. Because seating is limited in the bright and airy nook, large parties may find it difficult to accommodate.
