Welcome to City Hall.

Weekend lunch at Sing Swee Kee

It felt like a gentle return to comforting, old-school Hainanese flavours—simple, polished, and deeply satisfying.

Ordered the Steamed Chicken with Rice, Hainanese chap chye, Hainanese pork chop, and a house-made chilled Luo Han Guo drink.

Steamed Chicken Rice
The steamed chicken was exceptionally tender—silky, juicy, and naturally sweet, with a clean, unmistakable chicken flavour. The skin had that perfect gelatinous finish, rich yet never greasy. A timeless option for anyone who appreciates lighter, more refined tastes.

Chicken Rice
The rice was fragrant and fluffy, with just the right amount of richness. It paired beautifully with the steamed chicken, especially when lifted by the chilli sauce and ginger sauce—balanced and comforting.

Hainanese Chap Chye
A warm, homely dish done with care. The black fungus and fried pork skins added a pleasant crunch, while the vegetables were cooked to a soft, flavour-soaked tenderness. Lightly seasoned but far from bland—elevated by lard cracklings that gave it depth and a satisfying finish.

Hainanese Pork Chop
Crisp on the outside with tender meat within, served with a nostalgic sweet-savoury sauce that hit all the right notes. It went surprisingly well with chicken rice, adding a richer contrast to the meal.

Cold Luo Han Guo Drink
Cooling, soothing, and thoughtfully restrained in sweetness—an easy, refreshing way to round off the meal.

A comforting, lighter-leaning spread that still felt complete and indulgent in its own understated way—ideal for lovers of traditional Hainanese fare - Rating: 4/5

Went to Sing Swee Kee for lunch and ordered a few dishes as below.
1) Roast Chicken Rice
The roast chicken was flavourful with a light smoky aroma. Skin had a slight crispness while the meat remained juicy and well-seasoned. Paired well with the chilli and dark sauce, making it a satisfying and hearty plate. Rice was fragrant and fluffy without being overly oily. It complemented the roast chicken nicely and soaked up the sauce well.
2) Hainanese Chap Chye
A comforting, homestyle dish. Vegetables were well-braised and soft, with a mild savoury gravy that wasn’t too salty. A good balance to the meats.
3) Hainanese Pork Chop
Tender and lightly fried, with a classic Hainanese-style sweet and savoury sauce. Not greasy and very enjoyable with rice.
4) Iced Barley Drink
Refreshing and lightly sweetened, great for cutting through the richness of the meal.
5) Overall
A well-balanced and filling meal with comforting flavours. Ideal if you enjoy roast chicken and classic Hainanese dishes.

($2.60) I decided to order their popular drink before they bring in matcha series into their menu. But their thai green milk tea taste quite good but slightly sweet aftertaste tbh but then its reminded me of cha tru mue.

The dishes were very flavourful! It was worth the trip :)

Chicken rice that offers something different. Really enjoyed the pork chop and the chap chye.

The chicken chop is a great contrasting dish to be paired with their signature chicken. Well seasoned rice and chap chye

Smoky and herby with a garlicky kick. A bit dry on its own, but the mustard and sauerkraut bring the tang and moisture that make it work 》$14

Spicy pepperoni, tangy tomato sauce and stretchy mozzarella on a crisp base. Classic and easy to love 》$24

A platter packed with variety. Wings, fried octopus, laksa popcorn chicken, sausage, satay, edamame and fries. Great variety and made for sharing over drinks 》$42

Spaghetti in a creamy parmesan sauce, lifted by smoky bacon and earthy mushrooms. Not fancy, just a good bowl of creamy spaghetti that’s easy to enjoy 》$23

Crunchy nachos piled with guac, sour cream, salsa, olives, jalapeños, and cheese sauce. Messy, cheesy and perfect for sharing 》$13

Crispy fries with a touch of truffle and parmesan. Simple, tasty and perfect with drinks 》$10
