Honestly the first time I tried Wee Nam Kee Chicken rice was in Manila as they already have expanded outside of Singapore. Then I already liked it. Then I managed to find a job in Singapore, and so now, I come here at Thomson Road almost every Saturday afternoon. I usually am famished by the time I get here so... More

Been here many times. Always packed, always delicious. Eating by the side of a busy road (and steps away from a bus stop) may not be everyone's idea of a good place to eat, but it just adds to the no frills approach of the place. Order your food, eat, and go. The chicken rice is one of the best... More

This is the best hainanese chicken rice in Singapore for me... The roast chicken,steamed chicken and fritter with mayo ! Superb..! A very wise choice for breakfast... But i think they need to have a better place,because the current place is the way to crowded and no ac :(

. Review is based on their outlet at "112 Katong" Mall. Very clean appearance and friendly staff. Just stopped for a lunchtime snack of chicken rice and very good it was at the price of $13 with veg plate. Clearly a very popular venue with Singaporean families shopping at the mall. Looking forward to visiting again.

This is my first visit, with my mom and siblings. All 6 of us loveeeeeeeeeeee it!! The steamed chicken is so yummy. The roast pork is so crunchy. The hainanese rice is very delicious. I don't really like the broccoli, not recommended. Next visit to Singapore, it's a must-eat place. The foods remind me of my childhood restaurant we used... More

Delish & cheap local cuisine. If you come to Singapore and want to try local food - Chicken Rice has to be on the list & this place is a must! For those who prefer a healthier option, order boiled chicken (chicken breast only if you prefer) & ask for the skin/bones to be removed.

Good if you like oily chicken rice. Not so great if you are watching your waistline. There are other options.
