"My supplier told me no more chicken will come in. And since chicken is not coming in, there's no chicken to give me. I'll sell only fresh chicken, not frozen chicken," he said. Mr Jason Teo, 52, who runs chicken rice store 888 at Ghim Moh Food Centre, is one of the sellers who will be using frozen chicken in his chicken rice dishes.
"Even if I buy the chicken parts , its very difficult to cook, as the timings for cooking would be all different. This is especially hard for roasted chicken," he said.
