This chicken rice stall has many branches. I encountered the same issue of the stall owner complaining when I got the smallest portion. By 2 different folks 1 at amoy branch the other at bedok branch. I'm still baffled that it happens regardless of branch and personnel lol
@@kaiyin3842 OP didn't say all google reviews are petty little things. You're not very good at listening, hor? Are you one of those petty little things?
You would have to define "petty little things". Because, you know, some people will not settle for less or take slights lying down. Everyone deserves to be treated with respect by default, no matter how good/bad the food is.
Konnichiwa Ghib-san! My wife introduced me to your channel and I like your content a lot! If you ever want to explore a place that filled with LOTS of choices for food, do try explore Kampong Admiralty level 2! There are more than 7 muslim stalls, a Turkish/Lebanese stall, and over 12 non-muslim stalls which you'll be spoil for choices. Hope to bump into you! Have a great week! 😁
There is a distinct/town (MacPherson). You can try exploring there/finding food/entertainment and how average Singaporeans get along with their daily lives. Circuit Road - Balam Road - Geylang East - Aljunied - Paya Lebar - Ubi - Tai Seng - Eunos.
Stalls that put different prices and then by default sell you the higher price one or pressure you to buy the higher price one by telling you the lower price one portion is too small 'for babies' should be dealt with or something. This is plain dishonest practice. If they are so reluctant to sell it, then don't list it in the first place. And, this is not the only stall I know to do this.
@GhibOjisan Their chicken rice is decent in terms of taste. Just that most Singaporeans cannot stand dishonest hawkers. On top of being dishonest, Tong Fong Fatt franchise are also known to be very rude.
This chain of chicken rice known to be rude to customers. The food is not bad, but you can easily find complaints about bad service. They even scold customers. No matter how good the food, why pay someone to disrespect you when you are just ordering what you want.
I saw the iconic blue banner and I already know the name of the chicken rice stall mentioned at the start. They are a franchise and happen to have a stall at the hawker centre near where I stay. That particular stall was also notorious for doing whatever is mentioned in the reviews, minus the snarky comments. So it looks to be an islandwide issue. That's the reason why the stall near where I stay got complained to the officials (whoever is in charge of this matter) by several customers. Nowadays, they are more transparent about their prices but the portion is still small for how much they're charging.
Ghib, the portion of chicken they gave you is bigger than what they normally give for $5. Tong Fong Fatt has branches islandwide but they all have similar practice of bad attitude to customers and miniscule portions. I have tried branches at Kovan and Toa Payoh and is consistently not worth the money. They have like a standard practice to take a small portion of chicken breast and flatten it to make it look bigger and cut into even smaller slices. Another issue I find is they like to overdrench the chicken with sesame oil and soya sauce making it really salty. Feel very thirsty after eating their chicken rice.
Kovan market, chicken rice still is indeed horrible. The uncle is always frustrated and upset with their customers. Their attitude is definitely not suited to operate a hawker. These pple have problem dealing with their own anger
i love such videos by you, Ghib! Thank you for taking the time and effort to do them! imho, many times low ratings are given not objectively based on the food or product but on certain experiences which annoyed or irritated the "reviewer". This may be unfair to the actual food or product, which could be actually good.
I know that chicken rice stall. I was at one of their branches one evening. I remembered saying i wamted the small portion. But they prepared the big portion, costing me over $5! The food is average. It was the 'upselling' that irritated me :(
I have been patronising the chicken rice stall occasionally. The uncle in the chicken rice stall is pretty ok. There was another co-worker a few years ago who had a real attitude problem. I’m glad he no longer works there.
Omg, i know someone who said this same thing as you too. Haha but she say something like if that stall is the only stall left she rather eat instant noodles or travel elsewhere to eat.
@ the porridge stall next to them..the uncle standing outside of the stall also terrified me once, when he put his thumb into the porridge…he says he’s been doing it for 20 years, don’t worry eat won’t die…
@@JensonHiah are the other stall at that hwaker centre not hygienic enough too? I don't stay near so only visit during cny time but rarely go hwaker during my visit. Sound disgusting of the porridge stall.
I belive most of those low rating is due to service not the food. If the food really super horrible then it will most likely close down already as people won't bother eating.
东风发got stalls all over Singapore. The boss is the guy on the lky right in the photo 01:46. I think the first stall started from Ghim moh. A bit salty for my liking.
Ghim moh not the first stall. I knew the ghim moh stall at Boat Quay and ask why didn't they come my estate and his son actually open the ghim moh stall very shortly. Now his son is not at ghim moh market already. At least i didn't see him for some years already. That was like 20 years ago.
@@moonlightaffairs First stall was at market street hawker center,CBD aka golden shoe,the photo with LKY was taken there,they proudly show it but is only a photo,maybe LKY that time walkabout that area as is under tanjong pagar but does not mean LKY got eat their food
The meat is dry because the seller given you all breast meat. You should ask for drum stick or wings instead. For a fairer review, you should not go buy yourself as people recognise you out for food testing so might give you a bigger portion to get good reviews. You should ask a local to go buy and observe the seller’s service instead to different buyers. Most important is only the locals know the best chicken rice standard and the price being charged.
The chicken rice is good at some outlets, but I wouldn't eat again due to consistent BAD service. Super rude staffs as if you owe them money. Not naming the store name in case I get a lawyer letter but its pretty obvious which store it is hahaha.
@@HolyEnchanta 0:43 Could see the name and I searched it has the exact same rating on Google at kovan. They probably made the food good for ghib because they recognize him
I am a sucker for chicken rice as it is slim picking here in Toronto, Canada. I bet the one you visited is probably as good as the ones we have here. 😂
Hainanese chicken without skin is total failure. The way Hainanese chicken is cooked is all for that chewy yet soft chicken skin with a layer of solidified jelly (fat) under. Without that skin we Singaporeans know that chicken is simply boiled chicken with plenty of sauce, not Hainanese chicken 😴
I trust your taste more than the one star reviews. I guess some customers were put off by uncle's upselling and were told off for not budging. You should've insisted on wanting the baby size and see his response.
Sometimes, it sorta depends on your " luck ", some hawkers are random, sometimes you receive good service good food, other times you might not get the same service and tasty food from the same stall... That's " hawkers "...
Some people are just more popular like my mum, she always get extra portion and better price. The duck rice at my estate is always long queue and their $4.50 portion is pretty small. No free soup if you buy takeaway. Their service was good thou. Whenever my mum order, the few guys at the stall will give her free soup in 2 plastic bag in case it spill, give my mum extra duck meat and her toufu is a whole piece instead of half. We actually tried queue and buy differently on same day and compare the food serving size. Mum order is always bigger. 😊
Also my boyfriend even order 4 duck rice and especially ask for soup but the seller tell him no soup for takeaway. But my mum always buy 1 packet with free soup. I even witness someone order 1 dine in portion was deny soup by then stall while i am dinning in.
- Tong Fong Fatt always likes to show the pictures of Lee Kwan Yew and Lee Hsien Loong cuz that's the fave stall of the old-LKY. HOWEVER, it's now a franchise and their quality control is totally garbage. Also, LKY did NOT eat at this stall but the main stall back then in Ghim Moh which was the estate LKY ran as minister. Rice is sticky like it's Korean steamed rice and the chicken portions are tiny as hell. The Kovan uncle is really rude for mocking the customer's choice and I did nearly punch him once for his snarky comments. My ahma can only eat that much that's why I buy the normal portion la! You care so much for what? Your shop set the price, I buy lor! Not happy then ask your main franchiser to raise the price la! - ECP's East Lagoon is a night spot and you went too early. Go back when it's 5pm+ and stalls will start to open. They usually don't open in the morning and afternoon. - Satay by the Bay is just a serious scam of the freaking century. Went there once and never wanna go back again. Everything is 2-3x the price and the quality isn't even worth the price. For the price alone, you can go to Chomp Chomp and have 2x the satay that the place offers. Even the hokkien mee is just meh and you can, again, get a large worth for 4 pax at Circuit Road market. Utter scam.
Yes food is subjective, but if many people give it 1-star with real comments, there’s a problem. Anyway did Ghib think no one would notice him/his friend pointing a camera at their stall? lol
Satay by the bay, this one stall selling the sting ray bbq(ikan pari bakar). Walao, not fresh or not fresh enough. Even this one former dj got try it out on food vlog. Same experience
Tong Fong Fatt? Hmm, even don't need to see the review, I already had a lot of issue with them as I had at a few of their stalls over the years. Honestly, at the start they are actually very good. But over the years, I guess with being a franchise, their standard drop to me until rock bottom and below that. And those are my own personally experience with them and nowadays, I will just avoid ALL of their stalls ever. And yeah, their attitude depends on their mood which is mostly is very bad.
I don’t go to DFF anymore as I find that I don’t get a fair portion of what I deserve for every time I order “take-away”. If you order and eat there, they’re usually quite ok, but once you tapao and open up the packet at home or office, omg the chicken portion are 9 out of 10 disappointing cos they’re mixed with the small bits instead of nice cuts. I hate the way they skimp things out at the expense of “tapao” customers. The one at Ghim Moh market and Bedok Central food centre practices that and I’m not sure of any other locations? Notice the way they pack the chicken portions after the rice is dished, very skilful and wrapped up so fast that you cannot see what they put inside.
LWY and LHL both did went to that brand of chicken rice stall but not that outlet. They have a branch in my estate too. They are franchise chicken rice stall so some branch are really horrible in term of services. I actually like the stall at my estate and Maxwell market. The food is decent but some stall have attitude problems.
I expect more even if it's $6, that $12 humus is not value for money. Just imagine how much business opportunities they missed for being stingy with their portion for the $12 price. I won't support them even if it looks good or taste good.
1st Stall Chicken Rice alot outlet, like franchise stall, more than 1 stall in Singapore. 2nd Stall, I think bcos cannot ownself pick = price may not be justified. 3rd stall is at Expensive location, so price is not cheap never try before so don't know. Last Stall also at Expensive location, so price also not cheap but taste don't know as never eat before.
They got a few outlets,famous for upsize you and sell you without asking leh and not only kovan one,I kana at Maxwell one,I order small one,then I see him tell the one who prepare the food a bigger size one,so I tell him I order a small one,he can tell me,small one for kid,then the one prepare food tell him in a sarcastic way,if customer order small one,is their choice don't argue,most of their stalls got attitude old staff,seeing comments here, most practise this kind of cheating way and not only 1 stall
I actually like the Maxwell outlet as i bring tourist to tian tian whenever my friend/relative visit Singapore. Most of them end up buying this stall because they don't want to wait too long for tian tian. In terms of taste only, i prefer Maxwell version. My estate stall will give me much bigger portion because i know their boss son. Now the son no longer go there but i haven't encountered rude services. No force upsize when i order but i got to admit their smallest portion was too little meat. Maybe because i usually buy half a chicken with 5 packet of rice at my estate.
@@celestialstar124 In a group,ordering more,they probably won't bother to upsize without your knowledge,try order one small plate one and you can see what happen,my experience is few years back,looking at comments here,you can see most stalls practise this way of doing business and not only 1 stall,since then,I never buy from them whenever I see this stalls at any hawker center
right? if you overlook the flowers ghib tries to place in the commentary, the chicken rice stall upsold which still resulted in a normal portion of chicken btw. the soup looked like dishwater and the chicken had no skin(how wtf? did the owner eat the skin or do i have to pay extra for it?)
Actually i have tried multiple horrible chicken rice/ball in Malacca. The chicken is extremely hard and stiff, the rice are clumpy and got a weird rice scent. My relatives tell me that is because they use Malaysia rice to cook. In Singapore i ever ate chicken rice with plain rice. That really don't taste good but wasn't horrible.
It’s an average chicken rice chain. Somehow, it’s a chain with generally bad and arrogant attitude and this stall’s attitude is worse. lol. It’s edible but given the number of chicken rice stall in Singapore….. It’s really good of you to be positive but many Singaporeans view food as a necessity in life, especially when it’s near their homes. Positive when it’s really expensive and when the attitude is bad over many attempts…..wish it was that easy.
1st stall chicken rice owner said small (cheap) portion for baby eating. What if a person could only afford small portion? The owner is not a kind/considerate person. I will avoid this stall, also no queue despite having elite pictures. Serve him right. The hummus n falafel stall, forget it. Save your money for better authentic food especially around Arab street or Haji Lane.
The reviewers are probably having a bad day, or bad service at the moment of purchase. Sometimes due to bad reviews the stall might have improved on their weaknesses hence you're experiencing something better from them. Also, no local would patronize Satay by The Bay even if they are desperate lol! The prices there are ridiculous.
Have you been to try up foods in MBS foodcourt there? The foods there cost very or quite expensive at least Sgd$8.00 or $10.00 and above for single dish from any stall there, but not sure it worth it or not. One or two year ago I went there to the foodcourt and ordered to eat a quite big bowl of noodle might be 'Lau Mee' there not very taste, not very good, quite o.k only, it cost me SGD$13.00. I felt it could only worth 8.00 the most instead of charged amount SGD$13.00!
I have never had a bad meal when visiting SG. Try comparing it to the garbage in the U.S.! Even if it was a 1 star rating in SG that would still be a 5 star Michelin meal in the U.S.
Not my number 1 favourite but i do love their chicken rice at my estate and Maxwell market. Tried at least 5 branches and all taste are good. Just that some service are poor.

i feel the uncle wouldnt care at all lol, though i agree this might affect the authenticity of the review

You can never go wrong with chicken rice. There are never a bad chicken rice. What separate the best among the wrose is the service and price.
You have crap taste buds then.
Some stalls have dry chicken and plain rice

I hate the way they skimp things out at the expense of “tapao” customers. The one at Ghim Moh market and Bedok Central food centre practices that and I’m not sure of any other locations? Notice the way they pack the chicken portions after the rice is dished, very skilful and wrapped up so fast that you cannot see what they put inside.
Good and affordable mala xiangguo is at Bedok central hawker centre, next to this coffee shop 😅
LWY and LHL both did went to that brand of chicken rice stall but not that outlet. They have a branch in my estate too. They are franchise chicken rice stall so some branch are really horrible in term of services.
I actually like the stall at my estate and Maxwell market. The food is decent but some stall have attitude problems.
Tat chicken rice store isn't that bad just that it's smaller portions.. certain stores taste better too 😂
I actually like the Maxwell version more but i need to say i only tried like 5 branches.
I expect more even if it's $6, that $12 humus is not value for money. Just imagine how much business opportunities they missed for being stingy with their portion for the $12 price. I won't support them even if it looks good or taste good.
Go to Nanyang Spice at Sim Lim Square and eat earthworm laksa.
Earthworm…?!
@@GhibOjisan that's how traditional laksa is made
I recognize the chicken rice signboard. Surprised their rating is that low. They've a branch near my place, googled it, also under 2. Sad
1st Stall Chicken Rice alot outlet, like franchise stall, more than 1 stall in Singapore. 2nd Stall, I think bcos cannot ownself pick = price may not be justified. 3rd stall is at Expensive location, so price is not cheap never try before so don't know. Last Stall also at Expensive location, so price also not cheap but taste don't know as never eat before.
Stall owners knew he is a utuber, Ghib should let his wife buy the meals, then it will be more unbias review.
Thanks for doing the video.
They got a few outlets,famous for upsize you and sell you without asking leh and not only kovan one,I kana at Maxwell one,I order small one,then I see him tell the one who prepare the food a bigger size one,so I tell him I order a small one,he can tell me,small one for kid,then the one prepare food tell him in a sarcastic way,if customer order small one,is their choice don't argue,most of their stalls got attitude old staff,seeing comments here, most practise this kind of cheating way and not only 1 stall
I actually like the Maxwell outlet as i bring tourist to tian tian whenever my friend/relative visit Singapore. Most of them end up buying this stall because they don't want to wait too long for tian tian.
In terms of taste only, i prefer Maxwell version. My estate stall will give me much bigger portion because i know their boss son. Now the son no longer go there but i haven't encountered rude services. No force upsize when i order but i got to admit their smallest portion was too little meat. Maybe because i usually buy half a chicken with 5 packet of rice at my estate.
@@celestialstar124 In a group,ordering more,they probably won't bother to upsize without your knowledge,try order one small plate one and you can see what happen,my experience is few years back,looking at comments here,you can see most stalls practise this way of doing business and not only 1 stall,since then,I never buy from them whenever I see this stalls at any hawker center
How do you cook a bad chicken rice??? Almost impossible as long you are using chicken.
right? if you overlook the flowers ghib tries to place in the commentary, the chicken rice stall upsold which still resulted in a normal portion of chicken btw. the soup looked like dishwater and the chicken had no skin(how wtf? did the owner eat the skin or do i have to pay extra for it?)
you haven’t eat Hainanese chicken rice serve with white steam rice right?
Most of the ones at MRT station is bad, but at least it's cheap
@@___Danny___i ate before and it doesn't taste good at all. I won't go back to stall that use plain rice.
Actually i have tried multiple horrible chicken rice/ball in Malacca. The chicken is extremely hard and stiff, the rice are clumpy and got a weird rice scent. My relatives tell me that is because they use Malaysia rice to cook.
In Singapore i ever ate chicken rice with plain rice. That really don't taste good but wasn't horrible.
Can you do a video on baby stuff from Japan.
It’s an average chicken rice chain. Somehow, it’s a chain with generally bad and arrogant attitude and this stall’s attitude is worse. lol. It’s edible but given the number of chicken rice stall in Singapore…..
It’s really good of you to be positive but many Singaporeans view food as a necessity in life, especially when it’s near their homes. Positive when it’s really expensive and when the attitude is bad over many attempts…..wish it was that easy.
7:51 that auntie omg haha
And pls no Ghib that Donald Trump being huge pls don't say that
I'm a fan of chicken skin. Without the skin, the meat will taste dry and less tasty especially if it is chicken breast meat.
How can Dong Fong Fatt go wrong tbh? They franchised so many stores islandwide.
The bedok mala i guess the best in bedok,is just pricey.The food taste great match with beer.
1st stall chicken rice owner said small (cheap) portion for baby eating. What if a person could only afford small portion? The owner is not a kind/considerate person.
I will avoid this stall, also no queue despite having elite pictures. Serve him right.
The hummus n falafel stall, forget it.
Save your money for better authentic food especially around Arab street or Haji Lane.
yes the Kovan chicken rice stall uncle is a professional scammer
They killed the stay club 😢
Nice to visit low star for a change but I feel chicken must have the skin
The reviewers are probably having a bad day, or bad service at the moment of purchase. Sometimes due to bad reviews the stall might have improved on their weaknesses hence you're experiencing something better from them. Also, no local would patronize Satay by The Bay even if they are desperate lol! The prices there are ridiculous.
photo should change to bayi eat sai and they will say is chocolate
want to by the vessi shoes...but no size. Look like all their common sizes are out of stock.
first time i see hawker stall selling "baby set meal" so need see birth cert or measure height to buy?
Have you been to try up foods in MBS foodcourt there? The foods there cost very or quite expensive at least Sgd$8.00 or $10.00 and above for single dish from any stall there, but not sure it worth it or not. One or two year ago I went there to the foodcourt and ordered to eat a quite big bowl of noodle might be 'Lau Mee' there not very taste, not very good, quite o.k only, it cost me SGD$13.00. I felt it could only worth 8.00 the most instead of charged amount SGD$13.00!
live near kovan market there
yea more people eat the stall from the front over that stall
dont remember that stall have alot of buisness actually
aunty bao toh you 😆😆
The Turkish cuisine wasn $12?! It is over priced! 😐
You want to test for the reason of low rating,
You should insist for small plate $4.
I have never had a bad meal when visiting SG.
Try comparing it to the garbage in the U.S.!
Even if it was a 1 star rating in SG that would still be a 5 star Michelin meal in the U.S.
My bf from USA actually think Singapore burger cannot match those in usa.
Shoulder on 😂
used to eat from that mala store in the past
but ya they don't even weigh and anyhow calculate
That's why East side, bad side.
T*ng F*ng F*tt is my fav chicken rice stall! Maybe just the kovan outlet is shit..
Not my number 1 favourite but i do love their chicken rice at my estate and Maxwell market. Tried at least 5 branches and all taste are good. Just that some service are poor.
