The chicken was lovely, both in taste and in looks. Quite a flawless plate. And even with the thigh cut, only $3. Strong chilli too.

Q an ulu place, so the price was vv affordable.

Char siew had a nice smokiness despite it being slighty dry, due to the lean cut. Roast Chicken wasnt thaaat bad, but it pales in comparison to the steamed Chicken.

The steamed Chicken had a superb and unique texture, with the meat almost bouncy and the skin was so translucent and jelly like. Really well cooked and definitely worth a try, definitely the least chicken-tasting Hainanese Ckn I've had, in the best way

The taste is okay. The portion of chicken is quite a lot for only $3.

introducing 猪头, 猪耳皮 at the side; good "lor" and braised comfortably to retain a soft bite, this plate of pork stole some limelight from the chicken i must say.

This may not be worth travelling across Singapore for, but for those who live or work in Jurong West, expect a true bargain for chicken rice at what Tastemaker Fabian Poon says is the area's best kept secret. Tastemaker Emily S paid only $7.50 for a generous set of steamed and roasted chicken rice for two, and the steamed chicken had her waxing lyrical about how tender and silky smooth it is. The sauces, especially the chilli, are great too. If you're in a large group, take Tastemaker Fabian's lead and order one whole chicken (get a combination of steamed and roasted for variety) along with a side of roast pork belly and char siew to share. What will comfortably feed a gang of eight will only set you back $31 — what a steal!
Avg Price: $5 per person

Exploring the far west earlier in the month with the #BurppleTastemakers, our first order of business led us to A&I Boneless Hainanese Chicken Rice for breakfast. An awesome find, our generous 2-person portion with a mix of steamed and roasted chicken was both surprisingly tender.

However, if I had to pick a favourite, the steamed chicken wins hands down as the roasted chicken lacked a little oomph in terms of seasoning and texture. Enjoying mine with tons of black sauce, the steamed white flesh was wonderfully smooth and I couldn’t resist chomping down on the glossy skin with that nice layer of gelatin just underneath. Most importantly it was boneless.

The rice was worth mentioning too as it was fragrant, not overly cloying yet holds a good amount of flavours in each grain. Noted with a constant queue, the store operates from 6AM - 3PM daily so go down early for a good breakfast or brunch.

Am not a fan of chicken rice 鸡饭 - for how unhealthy it is, it doesn't give me the satisfaction I feel it needs to make it worth it. However, this is one place I would love to try again.

The clear winner here is the 白鸡 white chicken, as it is really tender & the skin is silky smooth (as it should be). I usually peel the skin away, enduring the judgmental looks of everyone around me. But this time it was different; I tried the skin because it looked so good, & I was right - it was! The 烧鸡 roasted chicken was tougher, so it isn't my favourite.

Soup was nothing special, but sauces were YUM. I happily tucked in to the chilli.

I don't know if you'd travel all the way to Jurong West for this (鸟不生蛋的地方), but for those who are in the vicinity, give this a shot 😉🐔🍚 They're only open 6AM - 3PM daily, & they're not open this whole week (1st week of June 2017), so come back next week & onwards! Portion for 2 pax (in the picture) costs $7.50 only.

Woke up really early to have this chicken rice as I want to avoid queueing for it or rather I have not even sleep.🤫🤣
Yes! Better to come early to buy their chicken rice as they usually sold out during lunch time and to avoid the queue too.🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️
Thanks friend for introducing this. Loved it.🙇‍♂️
$4.50 for this cheap and delicious fluffy fragrant chicken rice with steamed chicken with silky smooth icy jello skin and roasted chicken with slightly crisp flavourful skin plus a brasied egg. Paired with crunchy cucumber slice and garnish with scallion.😋 Comes with a bowl of clear soup too. Meat wise looks old but it doesn't taste much like its look but rather quite succulent. Oh... And is boneless too.😍
Take their chilli too if you want some refreshing fiery punch.
It is tastisfying and worth your money.👍
