Reviving 1971’s iconic taste — from Margaret Drive to Mei Ling, back home | Singapore Hawker Centre

Step into the past with every bite 🍚✨ — Mr. Niven Leong, son of the legendary hawker from 1971, brings back the iconic poached chicken rice that once ruled Margaret Drive. Using the same time-honored recipe and techniques passed down from his father, Niven serves up succulent, flavour-packed chicken with that signature jelly-like skin we all grew up loving. 💥 Big birds, bold flavours — each chicken is poached, chilled, drip-dried, and hung to perfection. Beneath the silky skin lies a luscious layer of gelatinous fat that melts in your mouth. And the rice? Fragrant, fluffy, and never greasy — paired with a piquant homemade chilli that hits all the right notes. 🍲 Don’t miss the free soup of the day (chicken feet with peanuts!) and classic sides like: • Salted egg with minced pork • Braised tofu and Braised egg • Stir-fried bean sprouts • Niven’s legendary ginger scallion sauce 📍 #02-33, 159 Mei Chin Rd, Mei Ling Market & Food Centre, Singapore 140159 🕥 Open Tue–Sun: 10.45am–2.30pm | Closed on Mondays 🔔 Hit that like button if you love heritage hawker food, and drop a comment if you remember the OG stall at Margaret Drive!
