The chicken is so lovely, the source is delicious, similar to the famous Tian Tian, only the rice is different, but still nice. Hard to say which shop is better! But for sure less queue & cheaper.

Actually we would like to eat Tian Tian but it's closed, Ah-Tai Hainanese suddenly the choice for us. Rice is nice, good taste good texture. Chicken shod be more softer a bit, would be great.

Good alternative to tian tian if the queue is too long or if they are closed. Taste is pretty similar.

Chili is hot and spicy and if you take more, you are "blessed" with a four letter word equivalent in hokkien as if you have committed a robbery in broad day light. Chicken is tender though.

Instead of eating at the touristy Tian Tian step two stalls to the left and enjoy the same chicken from the same cook who made Tian Tian famous. Its cheaper and with more side dishes.

$5 you get this set. Comparing to their competitor, here is more value money. Chicken is tender, sauce is soy based. Chili sauce is kicking with more sourness. Not bad overall

(3/5) Hawker stall next to Tian Tian serving up boneless, skinless Hainan chicken rice that tastes pretty similar, albeit somewhat less flavorful. Priced the same, but also comes with a bowl of soup.

Ah Tai is better than Tian Tian, there's even a shorter line. The black sauce is bomb!

Chicken is less fatty than over at tian tian. Maybe it was just the piece they gave me. But both places are good choices

Similar to tian tian but the rice texture and chicken might still be better at tian tian this time.....

シンガポールのガイドブックにも必ず載っているチキンライスの名店「天天海南鷄飯@Maxwell」の元従業員(調理長)が独立して同じFCで始めた店。個人的にはこっちの方に軍配だな。
