Best Hainanese chicken rice I had in Singapore. Chicken was tender juicy not dry. The rice was flavorful. We waited for a while for our chicken as they forgot about it. The old man did follow up on our order

The restaurant had an old school setting. I ordered chicken rice and Hainanese Porck Chop. The food came pretty fast (less than 10 minutes) even it was at noon and was full of customers. It was the best Chicken Rice I had in Singapore, silky smooth, fragrant rice. Pork Chop was top notch. I felt the nostalgic taste of overseas Hainanese cuisine. Reasonable price. Best experience.❤️❤️

Sgd23 for chicken and veg for 2pax, 1 place chicken rice, and 2 iced aloe vera. Chicken was juicy but had quite some bones, veg which was stir fried kailan was incredibly flavoursome and fried just enough to be cooked yet crunchy. Packed to the brim on a Friday at 1.30pm, our party of 2 was made to share a small table with another party of 2. Only cash payment or paynow. Place was clean, service was prompt. Will come back with others.

Ah while numerous viral mediasocials claimed for Tian Tian,Ah Tai which are so overrated,
I would say this place served THE BEST CHICKEN RICE IN SINGAPORE.

The chicken meat was flawlessly prepared with the traditional method.,it was so tasty,with the right amount of oil, chicken rice was fluffy,fragrant,and each rice glistened with right amount of oil. The soup was sweet,well prepared with right amount of chicken stock.

Do not forget their old traditional hainanese pork chop and those excellent herbal mutton soup.you must try it!!👍😋

Service was fast and prompt,it's crowded during lunch time and dinner time. Because of crowd sometimes they'll requested you if you are ok joining table with others.
Price sets at @ reasonable price.
Best culinary experience will come back again.!!👍👍👍,
❤️❤️❤️

Chin Chin Eating House on Purvis Street is a beloved heritage restaurant in Singapore, famously known for its authentic Hainanese cuisine — and it’s even said to be one of JJ Lin’s recommended spots. Stepping inside feels like a journey back in time, with its simple, old-school décor, marble-top tables, and bustling yet welcoming atmosphere. This is not a fancy restaurant, but its charm lies in its authenticity and time-honoured recipes passed down through generations.

The star of the menu is undeniably the Hainanese chicken rice. The chicken is tender, silky, and full of flavor, while the fragrant rice is cooked to perfection, infused with ginger and chicken essence. Their homemade chili sauce and dark soy sauce elevate the dish to another level. Other must-tries include the Hainanese pork chop — crispy on the outside and juicy inside — as well as their chap chye, tofu dishes, and flavorful soups.

Service is quick and efficient, reflecting the no-frills, traditional dining style. Prices are very reasonable, especially considering the quality and generous portions. Chin Chin Eating House is not just a place to eat; it’s a slice of Singapore’s culinary history. A must-visit for anyone who loves authentic local food.
