Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Yeo Keng Nam Chicken Rice is a long-standing establishment in Serangoon, but it's not just about the chicken rice.

While the chicken is consistently described as tender and moist, and the rice fluffy and fragrant, the chicken rice itself receives mixed reviews, with some finding it good but not exceptional.

The real standouts here appear to be the curry fish head, praised for its freshness, generous portions, and aromatic curry leaves, and the sweet and sour pork, noted for its well-cooked, tender finish.

We also note the hor fun has a distinct 'wok taste'.

Service is generally highlighted as friendly and impressive, contributing positively to the dine-in experience.

However, there are concerns regarding portion consistency, particularly when ordering extra, which can lead to disappointment.

We also note a comment about potential MSG use in the curry fish head, leading to thirst.

Overall, we'd recommend Yeo Keng Nam for its non-chicken rice dishes, especially the curry fish head.

Best to visit before 11:45am to avoid waiting for a table.

What customers say

Yeo Keng Nam Chicken Rice generally receives positive feedback for its consistent taste, particularly for its tender and juicy chicken, and fragrant, fluffy rice.

While the chicken rice is considered good, many customers highlight the curry fish head and sweet and sour pork as exceptional dishes.

However, some patrons have expressed disappointment with inconsistent portion sizes for takeaways, even when paying for extra, and a perceived high MSG content in certain dishes like the curry fish head.
