Fodor's Choice
Despite being hidden away on Level 5 of the Far East Plaza mall, Hainanese Delicacy always has a long line outside at lunchtime. It's renowned among locals as serving one of the best Hainanese chicken rice dishes on Orchard Road. Loved for its simplicity and flavor, this meal, an easy plate of poached chicken and white rice; the grains cooked with the leftover chicken stock, is a staple in the Singaporean diet. From the outside, the restaurant looks tired, with plastic chairs and tables crammed into every available space but this is part of the charm, and worth embracing to try a true Hainanese delicacy.
