Chatterbox Café (AIRSIDE)

I have forgotten when my first visit to Singapore was, but it was at least 25 years ago. One thing I still remember, however, was going to the Mandarin Hotel for chicken rice. It was very expensive, but I did not regret the decision. While I did visit a few times afterwards, more recently it was no longer on my list, but knowing they are having outlets in HK, today I came to Kai Tak Airside to see how it compares.The design is casual and fun, with rattan chairs and banquette seats, a cartoon style mural on one wall depicting the Singapore neighbourhood and signature dishes like laksa and chicken rice. The restaurant is quite big in size, with even some private rooms which can accommodate groups who want more privacy.We ordered the signature Mandarin Chicken ($188 half). The Hainanese chicken is very tender, and paired with the homemade chili, ginger, and dark soya sauce. However, compared with my memories I found the chicken here having less flavours, not sure because of the marinade or the time of cooking. Still quite good.We also had the Double the Yum promotion, offering at a special price of $128 we are able to choose two snacks, picking Pan-Fried Carrot Cake and Otah-Otah. The carrot cake is pan-fried together with sweet soya sauce and prawns, good in savoury taste. Personally, I would like to add some chili sauce to stimulate the palate even more.The Otah-Otah is a Malay dish, essentially seared spicy fish cake wrapped in banana leaf. The patty is made to a thin sheet, nicely seasoned, and served with white toast on the side. Tasty but is quite spicy, so need to consider whether you can take that before choosing.We finish with Char Kway Teow ($128), with the wok-fried rice noodles nicely cooked at high temperature, with prawns, scallops, squid, Chinese sausages and crispy silverfish. The amount of sweet soya sauce is also appropriate to make a good balance of savoury and sweetness.  Service is decent, and the bill on the night is $488. Compared with the price at Mandarin Hotel here is more affordable, but the overall experience is much better in Singapore. Perhaps next time when I visit the country, I should revisit the restaurant again to compare. Hope that will be soon……查看更多

呢间餐厅闻名于新加坡，非常受欢迎。最出名嘅系海南鸡饭。属于正宗海南鸡饭。我经常来吃，不单是水准佳，环境还十分舒适。凉粉豆浆红豆冰雪糕椰汁红豆冰饮得多，改用豆浆，凉粉都算系创新，几特别。味道比起传统椰汁较为清淡一些，没有腻感。红豆嘅绵滑，凉粉嘅口感，配搭不错。海南鸡髀饭薄薄的皮下面有一层水晶似的脂肪，充满骨胶原。鸡肉嫰滑，味道浓厚。三款酱汁，锦上添花，增添味蕾上的满足感。鸡油饭软熟，油香朴鼻。什莓雪糕刨冰炎热天气最佳甜品，酸咪咪嘅蓝莓酱汁劲开胃。椰果，爆珠配合起来口感十足。…查看更多
