[Post 770] Chicken Rice War: Who's Serving The Original Swee Kee Chicken Rice In Singapore? | On The Red Dot


Summary

Hainanese chicken rice, one of Singapore’s national dishes, was popularised by the famous Swee Kee Chicken Rice at Middle Road in the 1950s and 1960s. Since Swee Kee’s closure in 1997, several stalls bearing similar names—such as Moh Swee Kee, Zheng Swee Kee, Traditional Rui Ji, and Sing Swee Kee—have sprung up, leaving customers confused about which one carries the legacy of the original.

Food Feud uncovers which of these brands is truly connected to the original Swee Kee or simply capitalising on its name, and conducts a taste test to determine which stall’s chicken rice comes closest to the original’s iconic flavour.
