Ah Tai Hainanese Chicken Rice Reviews
And the food court seats are not comfortable.
First of all, I can't speak Chinese, but he suddenly got angry and took more money (I think he was pretending that he didn't have any change, so I recommend taking some change with him). This is the ultimate in unfriendliness. No credit card, only QR payment.
Anyway, the portions were really small, the hygiene was the worst of all the food centers I've been to (alcohol wipes are required), and the taste... it's definitely not the taste that's praised on YouTube blogs. It tastes like just boiled chicken and rice with sauce on it..? Please don't order the bok choy I ordered as a side dish. It was a waste of money and I almost went crazy.
Maybe it was because I was expecting a good meal without having to worry about anything, but there was nothing really special about it and it was just cheap for Singapore (but the portions were small so this too...)
Nice stir vegetable. The dipping chilli sauce is really compliment and perfect for overall chicken rice.
We come twice in a row during our visit in singapore.
Be prepared for super long queues, but the line goes fast tho.
- During my visit here at the weekend, the queue was quite long, but the service was quicker than what I expected, which makes me only have to wait around 10-15 minutes.
- I ordered the medium-sized chicken rice (which is the most popular dish). After finishing it, I could say that the chicken was quite tender, juicy and plenty. But not tasty enough that I would give 5 star
- They only accept cash too.
I ordered one Tian Tian Chicken Rice (M) and one Oyster Sauce Vegetables (S), $10 in total. The chicken is soft and juicy, the chilli sauce is pretty good and well-paired with the chicken and the rice (cooked with chicken broth). The vegetables are cooked nicely, really crunchy.
The long is quite long so get prepared. However, it clears pretty quick as they are quite efficient. The Maxwell Food Centre is a bit hot in the afternoon though.
Taste wise really feels like average neighborhood chicken rice. Definitely not as good as boon tong kee.
Service was good. But they only accept cash. Which is a big downside. Atmosphere wise, Maxwell being Maxwell is damn hot in the afternoon
We arrived around 6 pm on Friday. I guessed there's more than 30 people already queue up. But for our surprise, the waiting period was not that long. The service was efficient.
We managed to order steam chicken only since they out of roasted chicken. The chicken was so tender and juicy. And we absolutely fall in love with it. The rice was really good.
