1. Seng Heng Hainanese Boneless Chicken Rice @ Bukit Timah Market & Food Centre
There always seems to be a long, snaking queue at Seng Heng, which has been around for almost 20 years now. No prizes for guessing why though! The chicken rice here is as sinful as it gets: oily, tender meat with fragrant rice and awesome chilli sauce. Go early if you’d like to try the chicken rice here, everything’s usually sold out by late afternoon.

4. Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice @ Maxwell Food Centre
Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice is super famous. You only have the choice of steamed chicken here, and it is sooooo goooood. The dish isn't too oily, and the chicken meat is smooth. Know what's the secret? Well, apparently the chickens are fed grains like corn when alive, thus making the meat tastier than usual!

5. Heng Ji Chicken Rice @ Chinatown Complex Food Centre
The chicken rice at Heng Ji is such a hit with hawker food lovers. But aside from its fantastic chicken, the other star is actually the chilli sauce. Unlike most stalls which serve a garlic-y type, this stall’s unique because of its slightly sweet, dark red chilli sauce. Keep in mind that it only opens from 3pm till 9pm at night so if you intend to have it for lunch, be ready for a late lunch treat!
