Singapore’s beloved culinary institution, Sam Leong St. Chicken Rice, has reached a new milestone—officially Halal-certified and ready to welcome even more diners! Originally founded in 1992 by Uncle Heng, this iconic hawker stall has now transformed into a modern, air-conditioned restaurant at 12 Verdun Road, bringing its legendary Hainanese chicken rice to a wider audience.
The story of Sam Leong St. Chicken Rice is one of dedication, friendship, and a deep love for great food. Uncle Heng spent decades perfecting his craft, gaining a loyal following that included Mr. Fong Chi Chung, founder of PUTIEN Group—the renowned restaurant operator behind the Michelin-starred PUTIEN brand. Their mutual respect for culinary excellence led to a significant transition, with Mr. Fong now carrying forward Uncle Heng’s legacy at this new establishment.
Stepping into Sam Leong St. Chicken Rice, diners will experience the same commitment to authenticity and quality that made the original stall famous. The chicken—whether poached or roasted—is prepared to perfection, tender and juicy, complementing the fragrant rice cooked in chicken broth. No chicken rice experience is complete without its signature chilli sauce, a fiery, flavour-packed component that enhances every bite.
For just $5.80, patrons can enjoy a generous serving of chicken rice, while combo sets start at $9.80, allowing diners to pair their choice of poached or roasted chicken with a side dish and either a beverage or a signature soup. It’s an unbeatable combination of quality and value, making this a must-visit destination for food lovers.
