Hainan Jones offers a delightful culinary experience within a novelty hawker spot in the city. The restaurant is an automatic must-see for those yearning for a taste of Singapore. The highlight is undoubtedly the poached chicken with rice, which includes greens over sauce, cucumbers, a grape tomato, cilantro as garnish, and a side of vegetable soup mostly made of cabbage. The poached chicken is lightly seasoned to preserve its original flavor and achieves a layer of jelly-like skin. Adding soy sauce to the chicken and rice elevates the dish to an extraordinary level, with the sauce's thick consistency akin to Asian gravy.
The roasted chicken is another favorite, described as flavorful, homey, and comforting. Additionally, the braised tofu and braised egg are savory, mildly sweet, and a perfect addition to the meal. The dishes are fulfilling and lift the spirits of diners. Although the price might be on the higher side due to its city location, the overall experience and the quality of the food make it worth the visit.
Hainan Jones is a place that food enthusiasts will want to revisit, and next time, trying the roasted chicken would be a great idea. This spot is a gem for anyone looking to explore authentic Singaporean flavors in the city.
