Subsequently, Sgt Kiang helmed his own chicken rice stall called Sergeant Chicken at Rasa Singapura in the ’80s, till the Sentosa food court, which was established by the Singapore Tourist Promotion Board, closed in 1989. 

He later worked with various food chains, including the Kopitiam group (where he trained staff for their Chicky Fun and Sergeant Chicken Rice chains), and eventually co-founded Jiang Ji Traditional Hainanese Chicken Rice together with his children in late 2010. 

The stall initially operated at Havelock Road, before shutting down and reopening years later in Yishun from 2020 till 2022, before it closed again due to “rising rental and food costs”.
