Chicken House on Upper Thomson Road prides itself on using “kampung” (literally meaning “village” in Malay, but refers to free-range) chicken for their Hainanese chicken rice, yellow-skinned fowls which yielded firm-textured, deep-flavored meat.

- One of the best-tasting poached chicken dishes I’d had anywhere in Singapore.
- Poached chicken livers and gizzards - must-haves for a truly complete Hainanese chicken rice meal.
- Blanched beansprouts, dressed in chicken drippings, soy sauce, shallot oil, garlic oil, and other condiments, garnished with chopped scallions, crisp-fried shallots and some red chilis.
This dish was first popularized in Ipoh, Malaysia, where chicken rice or chicken noodles are usually paired with beansprouts.
- Ngoh hiang - 5-spiced pork rolls in bean-sheets. These were delicious - a very “untraditional” accompaniment to Hainanese chicken rice, but a sure winner here.
- Very good condiments, especially its ground fresh ginger in chicken drippings, and the red chili sauce, plus some good quality thick, dark soy sauce.
