For me, there are just two chicken rice places to go to in Singapore. One is Wee Nam Kee at United Square and the other is Sin Kee Famous Chicken Rice. There are now so many Sin Kee Chicken Rice stalls in Singapore that it boggles the mind. The OG was the stall in the old now-demolished Margaret Drive Food Centre, where long queues used to form on the second floor of the market. It later moved to the coffin-shaped market (now Margaret Market) on Commonwealth Avenue, where long queues used to form yet again.
This version of Sin Kee Chicken Rice, now called Sin Kee Chicken Rice, is now humbly located in a food court (Seng Huat) at the floor of Block 6 Holland Close. The food is exactly the same, the chicken is soft and tender, drizzled with a soy sauce and oil that is simply inviting. The rice is smooth and tasty. The chilli / garlic / thick black sauces are still there to complement the suite. It is exactly the way I remembered it. There are other Sin Kees in the neighbourhood, probably spin-offs from the original stall, but this is one.

| Taugeh (bean sprouts) are a must! |
 |
| The suite of sauces makes the chicken taste special. |
Seng Huat has other stalls to supplement the chicken rice, but Janet zooms to the Thai cockles of Kin Hoi Thai Cuisine, which is the default zichar stall of this coffee house. That's good to, but we must try the other Thai dishes on another occasion.
 |
| Kin Hoi's cockles are succulent! |
 |
| The name of the coffee shop / food court is almost secondary. |
 |
| There's even an annex that serves soya bean and cold desserts. |
