Zeng Ji Hainanese Boneless Chicken Rice is a hawker stall at Marine Parade Central that serves one of Singapore's national dishes with a focus on tender, boneless chicken and fragrant rice. The stall prepares its chicken using the traditional Hainanese method, poaching the bird to a silky smoothness before slicing it cleanly over rice cooked in chicken stock and pandan. The accompanying chilli sauce, ginger paste, and dark soy complete the classic plate. The boneless preparation makes for easier eating, particularly popular with diners who prefer convenience without sacrificing authenticity. The stall also offers roasted chicken for those who prefer a savoury, caramelised skin. Portions are generous and pricing stays firmly in hawker territory, making it an easy choice for a satisfying lunch in the Marine Parade area. For chicken rice that hits all the right notes, Zeng Ji at Marine Parade delivers the goods. Order the steamed version and savour every bite.Operating Hours

The chicken rice so good. Steamed chicken over roasted but both are nice. The rice is fragrant. Thought the stall had closed for good — turns out it just moved across the hawker centre! Had to make up for lost time and ordered both steamed and roasted chicken. Roasted was good, but steamed still takes the crown — tender, juicy, and perfectly paired with the rice. Love it
