Not just claypot chicken rice!
>> Saturday, October 23, 2010
Venue: Restoran Gafan, Taman Connaught, Cheras
Occasion: Dinner & catch-up with good friends
Overall comment: Interesting variety of claypot rice (not just the usual chicken!) at an affordable price.
Halal: No
Gafan (add rice?) has been around for a rather long time. It's one of the more famous claypot rice places, yet I have never tried it 'til of late. My friend, Mary, who lives nearby the Cheras Gafan outlet (there's apparently another outlet at Paramount Garden) was the one who suggested this restaurant for dinner. It's one of her family's favourite places for dinner & she was very pleased to introduce me to this place. Frankly speaking, I rarely go to Cheras unless I have anything important that I've to do or unless I've to meet up with friends who live in that area.
Gafan @ Cheras has 10 different types of claypot rice (who says that only claypot chicken rice exists?)! A small claypot of rice ranges from RM7.00/pot - RM10.00/pot, while a large claypot of rice costs RM13.00/pot - RM19.00/pot, all depending on the main ingredients of the rice dish.
The 10 different types of claypot chicken rice available are:
- Drunken Chicken Rice
- Salted Fish Chicken Rice
- Sausage Chicken Rice
- Black Pepper Chicken Rice
- Bean Curd Sauce Chicken Rice
- Thai Chicken Rice
- Mutton Rice
- Prawn Rice
- Black Pepper Steak Rice
- Fish Rice
If you're adventerous & wouldn't mind trying out new ideas with claypot rice, Gafan may be a good place to start ;)

->Sin Tai Lim: Hello there! Would be good to try at least once :) I can say the claypot chicken rice isn't fantastic...I just enjoy the variety of claypot rice offered, that's all :)
