Chicken Village

Fascinated by the Beggar's Chicken in the menu book, we decided to have  our dinner here. Beggar's chicken is absolutely a time consuming dish. Thus when this dish is sold out, the customers would have to wait for a long time to have this dish on their plate. So, we somehow arrived at the right time, and this chicken came only a few minutes after we ordered.

I was quite amazed that the outer layer of clay to cover the chicken is beautifully carved even though it's going to be smashed into pieces. That's right. After this dish arrived at our table, the servant brought a hammer along, breaking the outer clay layer, revealing a fragrant chicken meat which had been cooked thoroughly-- probably overnight. The taste of the chicken meat is just amazing, It was so soft that I can just swallow it without biting. The flavor was really nice too.
