FYI, if you don't want to wait in line for Tian Tian, then Ah Tai is nearby. Ah Tai is operated by Tian Tian's previous chef, who had a falling out with the daughter of Tian Tian's owner when she took over. Some say Ah Tai is better.
Thank you very much for watching my video! Hope you liked it! If you enjoy hawker centre videos, be sure to check out my episode at Old Airport Road Hawker Centre here: ua-cam.com/video/hSytrGbj6X8/v-deo.html 動画を見に来てくださり、ありがとうございます。コメント大歓迎です!
Hi Grif, if you have the opportunity, please try the white blanch chicken, the chicken taste is more pronunce. The "roasted" chicken is actually fried an is typically drier.
@@grifsfoodandtravel Hi Grif, you can get the white blanched chicken at any store that sells chicken rice, at min 1:32 of your video, there is an example of White Blanched chicken (白斩鸡), at the centre of the table, while the other plate of chicken on the table is the roasted chicken variant.
Isn’t that crazy. $4 for amazing huge bowl of food that would probably feed to and would be $20 in most restaurants in Canada/ America, how can they make it so cheap?! Love the birds singing in the background.
Wow. They have so many choices there! I have a question. When you finish with the food do you hand the plates directly back to the sellers, or is there somewhere you put them where they collect them? Things like this I like to know in advance if I can.
Thanks for watching and the questions. There are stations for you to drop off all your plates and garbage. You'll see them everywhere. They are located typically at the end of the row of stalls.
Another stall that is quite good is the Hup Kee Wu Xiang Guan Chang ( Hokkien-style wu xiang), and Ye Lai Xiang, Tasty Barbecue (try their mixed grill / pork chop is good)
That is sad to hear, as we love all three of the foods you mentioned. I'm a big fan of hum jin pang. Guess I'll have to visit hum jin pang restaurant on my next visit to Singapore.
Some of the underrated hawker centres worth going are Golden Mile food centre (favourite chicken rice at B1-35 ua-cam.com/video/Vj6XwimK1CE/v-deo.html ) and Hong Lim market and food centre (best fried kuay teow mee at 02-17 Outram fried kuay teow mee ua-cam.com/video/RS9X4w0P-gY/v-deo.html). Maxwell food centre is not the best . Just that tourists think it is the best . Amoy street food centre also not bad
TT Chicken rice is NOT the go to place for chicken rice. If you were to look at the queue, its all tourists. Locals dont eat at TT and we always wonder why the queue is so long... and had a good laugh... there are goodies at Maxwell but tourists dont know... one of them is the oyster cake ..
@@khinweepang My first time trying chicken rice, so still learning how to say it. But you can watch my other episodes with chicken rice and see I say it correctly. Beyond the way I say "chicken rice" did you enjoy the video? Are you from Singapore?
@@grifsfoodandtravel Thanks for replying. Good video, great honest reviews. I am from Singapore, glad to see you enjoying yourself. For stalls other than TT, you could try Ah Tai which is just a few stalls down. Ah Tai was opened by an ex-helper at TT's stall. Comparatively, Ah Tai's rice is more solid and fluffy whilst TT's is more mushy (they use more stock, so they get that bit more oomph in flavour). IIRC Ah Tai doesn't have the thick sauce over the chicken as well, which is more traditional in Singapore.

@@goddanner Is that like the chicken at Tian Tian Hainanese chicken? Where can I get white blanch chicken?

@@goddanner Thank you so much for that info. Now I'm excited to try white blanched chicken!
Very accurate description of the ingredients, love your comments on the taste, you are as good as those famous food bloggers
Thank you so much for your kind words.

Hawker Centres are definitely the go-to spot for many locals to have a good meal at a great value.
I believe the government of Singapore charges the hawkers a low rent, since they know how much Singaporeans depend on hawker centers.
He is quite good in choosing the few and right choice,which is quite popular and tasty thst any locals would choose.
Thank you so much for your comment!
What r u on about. Tian tian is a bloody tourist trap
グリフさん典子さんおはようございます😃

シンガポールチキンライスは私も大好物で、家でたまに作る事がありますよ!
ありがとうございます ✌️

Omg..u mean you ate those food at the same day? How can you eat so much..
I have my wife to help. 🤫 😂

Thanks so much for watching and the suggestions!
Adorei o video.
Thank you for watching!
Very tasty I want to eat
Definitely a "must try" hawker centre! Thanks for watching!
There are 3 dying stalls in sg not becoz it’s not delicious but becoz it’s too much hard work. Popiah, oyster cake and han jin pang.
That is sad to hear, as we love all three of the foods you mentioned. I'm a big fan of hum jin pang. Guess I'll have to visit hum jin pang restaurant on my next visit to Singapore.
@@grifsfoodandtravel all can be found at Maxwell for now 😊
Nice video. Please remember not to place your cutleries directly on the tray as it is not hygienic.
Thanks for the reminder! I often get carried away with all the amazing food and forget.

Thanks you for watching and providing your opinion on the hawker centres. Will have to visit Golden Mile food centre on our next visit.
@@grifsfoodandtravel Cheers
@@grifsfoodandtravel After you try the chicken rice B1-35 at Golden Mile food centre , you will realise there is nothing so fantastic about Tian Tian
@@bensgoodeats1493 Will put it on my food bucket list.
agree, I think Maxwell is only popular in tourists' list of Singapore hawker centres. Definitely not the most popular for us locals.
A lot if people mistaken turnip as apple in rojak.
@dailytube9872 Yeah, I didn't know it was turnips. I thought it was some type of radish. Thanks for watching and the comment!
its not radish.. it is jicama
Oh, thank you so much for letting me know!

Can you recommend a good chicken and rice at Maxwell, other than TT? Thank you!
I find TT very average as well, I much prefer dongfongfa
@@grifsfoodandtravel It's "chicken rice" btw. Why do you keep calling it chicken and rice?
