The first time I went to Hainan, coconut chicken was definitely indispensable. We loved eating it in Guangzhou. This time, we came to the place of origin to see what was different about the authentic coconut chicken? When I was making a guide, I was attracted by a high-value coconut chicken. The name was also very special: the sweet coconut chicken, which was on the list of must-eats in Sanya. It happened that we planned to go to the Sanya International Duty Free Shop in the evening, and we could dine at the branch in Haitang Bay!
Driving all the way to Haitang Bay, we passed many high-end hotels along the way. The store we were going to was hidden here, backed by the most conspicuous building of the Mangrove Resort Hotel. Emm, not to mention other things, the environment is already high-end and classy~
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a basket of coconuts on the ground. I heard from the clerk that the coconuts here are no more than eight hours from picking to serving. It is indeed fresh only in the place of origin...
The fresh environment of Tiffany Blue made me unable to help taking pictures.
We ordered a small portion of bamboo fungus, papaya and coconut chicken. The waiter brought a basket full of three coconuts and a bottle of Nongfu Spring. It is said that it is usually served with Evian water, but when we went there, it happened to be Double Eleven and the Evian water was sold out.
Hainan Wenchang Chicken, we only buy chicken in Guangzhou, it is indeed much better than ordinary chicken!
It is paired with organic papaya from Hainan, which is sweeter than ordinary papaya.
The waiter poured all three coconut waters into the pot and served it with a bottle of Nongfu Spring. This pot base is too real. My husband and I looked at each other and wondered what we ate in Guangzhou.
After the coconut water is boiled, add papaya, bamboo fungus, coconut meat, red dates, wolfberry and other health-preserving ingredients. When the pot base is cooked, the chicken can be put into the pot. Turn off the heat after three minutes, and the sweet and tender coconut chicken is out of the oven!
The chicken was Wenchang chicken's usual tenderness and firmness, and the papaya was just ripe and very sweet, so I couldn't eat it anymore and took out all the papaya to eat! After taking a sip of the soup, the sweetness of the soup base is beyond words, and the bowl after bowl of soup represents everything!
I ordered a small portion of boyfriend brand prawns. Why boyfriend brand? Because the shrimp shells and shrimp threads have been removed for you, and even formed into a heart shape, saving the trouble of peeling the shells yourself. The shrimp meat is very fresh and chewy to my amazement!
My husband also ordered a portion of marbled beef. For beef hot pot outside Chaoshan, I actually didn't expect it to taste good, with the right amount of fat and lean, and the beef is very fragrant and not old at all.
Spicy and sour boneless black chicken feet, different from the soft chicken feet, this chicken feet has a chewier texture, sour and spicy, refreshing and greasy, my husband who never likes chicken feet can't stop eating it...
Hainan black pork dumplings, the salted egg yolk is very tempting, cut into four pieces, very convenient to eat.
Fried mackerel cakes, unlike some fish cakes mixed with a lot of flour, this one is made of deep-sea mackerel, the taste is very sweet, even my husband who rarely comments on it also praised it repeatedly, it seems that my husband likes this...
A must-have dessert after the meal is coconut jelly, scoop it with a small spoon, the upper layer is pure white coconut milk jelly, and the bottom is transparent coconut fruit jelly, which is quite special.
