Recalled queuing over 1/2 hour the last time I was here a few years back. Due to their opening hours, only possible for me to come here on my off days.
This time around, still the same, long queue during a weekday lunch time.
The roasted chicken was soft and tender. And the roasted chicken skin was damn shiok.
Boneless chicken ftw, best for the lazy us 😂 Really enjoyed their fragrant and fluffy rice that’s not as oily. Chicken was tender, but would have personally liked them to have a tad stronger flavour. The queue gets pretty long, but you can also call in to make your pre-orders. More details on their Instagram, on @sengheng.1980!
Chicken was tender, rice was well cook! Love the chili too!! Definitely will come back again!!

This plate of Roast Chicken Rice $3.90 with egg.
Fluffy fragrant rice added sweet dark soy sauce.
Tender meat texture, tasty chicken skin.
Yummy!
There’s always a long queue at this stall and today I finally found out why. The chicken is soft and tender, generous in portion and the rice is served piping hot and fragrant, without being overly mushy or oily. Altogether one of the better chicken rice stalls around, highly recommended!
At Bukit Timah Market and Food Centre, it's a tight competition between rival stalls Fu Ji Hainanese Chicken Rice and Seng Heng Hainanese Boneless Chicken Rice for the best chicken rice. Both sport long lines during peak hours and both have equally tender and tasty chicken meat. Fu Ji, however, only serves steamed chicken while Seng Heng serves both the roasted and steamed versions (a plus point for sure)(from $3). In the end, it boils down to the simplest of ingredients — the rice. According to Tastemaker Russell Leong, who ate at both stalls, Seng Heng's version is much "tastier, had less fat from the chicken within, and every grain was packed full of flavour". To tip the scales even more, Seng Heng gains bonus points for providing ginger sauce!
Avg Price: $5 per person
