I ordered the Roast Chicken Rice Set with Special Beancurd (S$7.90) — the chicken was tender and flavorful, the skin nicely roasted, and the beancurd was a standout: crispy on the outside, silky soft inside.

Heritage Hainanese chicken rice stall from Tiong Bahru
Tiong Bahru Hainanese Boneless Chicken Rice is a celebrated hawker stall that has become synonymous with one of Singapore's most iconic dishes. Operating from the historic Tiong Bahru Market, the stall has built its reputation on serving meticulously prepared chicken rice with boneless chicken that is tender, silky, and flavourful. It is widely regarded as one of the finest examples of this beloved national dish.\n\nThe chicken is poached to perfection, its skin glistening with a thin layer of gelatin that speaks to the skill of the cook. The meat is sliced cleanly off the bone and served over fragrant rice cooked in chicken broth with pandan and ginger. Accompanying the dish are three essential condiments: a fiery chilli sauce, a pungent garlic-ginger paste, and a rich dark soy sauce. Optional additions include braised tofu, egg, and kailan.\n\nThe stall draws long queues during peak hours, a testament to its enduring popularity among locals and tourists alike. Tiong Bahru Hainanese Boneless Chicken Rice represents the best of Singapore's hawker culture, where a single dish, perfected over decades, can achieve the status of a culinary institution.Based on 698 Google reviews

1st time eating here at Somerset as I thought I could get some comfort food. Saw 10 year's of Michelin Bib Gourmand awards. Congrats! Then I saw the tables settings were scattered into different sections.

Good value for money and great tasting chicken rice. It is a self service eatery that you just walk up and order and pay for your food. Once ready they will call your number to pick up your food.

Chicken and boneless rice stand. The rice portion is generous. The rice is flavorful and the chicken is tender and juicy. Overall, a good experience for eating Chicken Rice.

We ordered two sets of chicken rice, each accompanied by a plate of bean sprouts with silver fish and a serving of special beancurd, at a very reasonable price of $7.90 per set.
