Mention Samsui Ginger Chicken to people living in Singapore and they will instantly refer this dish to the Soup Restaurant because as far as I know, I've only seen this dish at the Soup Restaurant. The dish is very simple, steamed chicken with ginger sauce dip then wrapped with fresh lettuce. Nice flavor and textural contrast and putting steamed chicken together with ginger sauce is so fail proof. What is Samsui? There is a great description about Samsui women in Singapore's National Library archive. Long ago, Samsui women would make this dish on special occasions like the Lunar New Year where chicken used to be an expensive ingredient.
