Took my friend out for some authentic chicken rice to celebrate their visit to Singapore. Sin Kee Holland Grove, with its recent Bib Gourmand recognition, seemed like the perfect choice.
While there was a queue upon arrival, it moved efficiently. Finding a seat during the lunch rush proved a bit trickier, but the wait was well worth it. The chicken itself was incredibly smooth and tender, perfectly complemented by the fluffy rice. The accompanying sauce struck a perfect balance – flavorful without being overly salty.
Chatterbox’s inviting and elegant ambiance sets the stage for a truly delightful dining experience. The chicken rice set is a must-try – a symphony of flavor presented with beautiful finesse. Every element showcases the use of fresh, high-quality ingredients, resulting in a culinary journey that transcends expectations. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, Chatterbox offers a taste of Singaporean tradition at its finest.
Having frequented this establishment on numerous occasions, I can confidently say they present one of the finest chili crabs in Singapore. Their presence on the west side of the island is a welcome respite, eliminating the need for a trek eastward to indulge in exceptional seafood.
My usual order, and a must-try for any guest, is their signature chili crab. It consistently delivers an unparalleled level of satisfaction. The crab meat boasts a delightful depth of flavor, perfectly complemented by the fluffy mantou buns. The true star, however, is the sauce – so incredibly flavorful, it’s tempting to drink it straight from the shell.
Another personal favorite is the silver hor fun. This dish is a testament to their culinary expertise. The wok-fried hor fun achieves a perfect balance of crispness and chewiness, while the inclusion of fresh prawns, scallops, and clams elevates the taste profile. The rich and savory gravy boasts a wonderful umami character, leaving a lingering satisfaction on the palate. The contrasting texture of the crispy kway teow pieces adds a delightful textural element.
Overall, this restaurant stands out as a haven for seafood enthusiasts seeking top-quality cuisine and a delightful dining experience.
To celebrate a dear friend, a small group of five of us gathered for a delightful evening. Opting for a reservation ensured a relaxed start to the festivities, bypassing the peak dinner rush.
Our culinary adventure began with a quintessential Singaporean duo: chili crabs and pepper crabs. Accompanying these stars were a generous portion of fluffy mantou buns, crispy fried prawn balls, a vibrant sambal kangkong (water spinach stir-fry), youtiao (fried dough fritters) enhanced with minced prawn, and a perfectly steamed fish.
The black pepper sauce, while not overtly spicy, boasted a captivating aroma. The crab itself was cooked to perfection – effortlessly yielding to reveal its succulent flesh, making every bite a true pleasure. The chili crab sauce, meanwhile, proved its versatility, complementing everything on the table with its distinct flavor. Our steamed fish, sourced with evident care, was both high-quality and immensely satisfying.
The prompt service ensured a seamless dining experience, allowing us to fully savor the culinary delights. The attentiveness of the service staff further enhanced the evening.
