Valen chicken rice — Restaurant in Thung Phaya Thai Subdistrict

1st Review 6 days ago

I only ordered thru GRAB food twice already for dinner, when we don't like to go out of our hotel room anymore. This is the best fried chicken and boiled chicken that we have tried so far here in Bangkok, Thailand. We ordered Mixed Chicken Steamed and Fried with jasmine rice and we ordered Mixed Plain boiled Chicken with skin and fried chicken, we requested for spoon & fork, sauces. 3 packed soups was included, it was in a plastic only so we used the ceramic cup in our hotel room for the soup.

Everything was very good. The fried chicken was so crispy on the outside but moist and not dry on the inside, all chicken was properly cooked, no parts was raw. The sauces was good. The rice was well cooked but not dry. We love it and one of these days we would like to try eating it on site. I cannot comment on the Physical store, but service was based on how well they packed the food. Prices was low for me considering the quality and portion of their food.

Finally we were able to visit and dine in. There was only 1 customer inside when we came in, the a.c. was not turned on but the electric fans were. We really don't mind at all since it was not really that warm. Maybe they only turn on the a.c. during selected time and when the place is full.

The place is quite clean though lack of storage area for their stocks of drinks that occupied some part of the place. Be on the lookout for flies too. Don't expect for a decent restroom, I think the restroom is never intended for customers but only for restaurant staff, thank you for allowing my companion to use it though. No parking space available for customers, it's better to just walk on this street if you intend to dine in.

We would still go back, their fried chicken is so good, it doesn't have those thick layers of flour, crumbs, extenders. Their boiled chicken is tender and moist. Their price is affordable and low, considering the serving portion and taste. Their staff are polite and attentive even if they have difficulty in...

I recently ordered the Mixed Chicken Rice (steamed and fried) through Grab, and it was a fantastic experience! The combination of steamed and fried chicken was perfect — the steamed chicken was tender, juicy, and flavorful, while the fried chicken was crispy and well-seasoned. Both types of chicken were cooked to perfection, with just the right balance of texture and taste.

The rice was fragrant and fluffy, with a light chicken aroma that paired beautifully with the meat. The dipping sauces were excellent — the sweet soy sauce, chili, and ginger added extra depth of flavor, making the meal even more satisfying. I requested extra sweet soy sauce, and they provided a generous amount, which was much appreciated!

The portion size was just right — filling but not too heavy. The food was well-packaged and arrived warm and fresh. The delivery through Grab was smooth and fast, with no issues at all.

Overall, this was one of the best mixed chicken rice meals I’ve had. The quality of the ingredients and the care in preparation really showed through. Highly recommend it if you’re looking for a delicious and...

As always, to avoid awkward moments between me speaking English and the seller speaking only Thai, I google image translated the menu, based on which I decided what I wanted, took a photo of the menu, and showed the lady my choice. Coming back to the room located in a building at the end of the alley, I enjoyed my lunch with her chicken rice box. I chose the first option: boiled chicken rice,...
