Wednesday to Sunday, 12 - 23 March

Iconic Singaporean restaurant Chatterbox will be popping up in Silks.

Synonymous with its world-famous chicken rice, Chatterbox was the talk of the town when it first opened in 1971 in a five-star hotel. Chatterbox boldly went where no one dared, bringing Singaporean hawker market food to a luxurious hotel setting and has remained the talk of the town ever since – a legend was born.

An endearing icon that has stood the test of time, Chatterbox has been feeding hungry diners and satisfying discerning palates with its inimitable menu of well-loved specialities prepared with time-honoured and fiercely-guarded recipes. Firmly establishing itself as a prime and quality dining destination, it has remained a top pick for many years, among generations of Singaporeans and tourists who relish the well-executed Asian and local cuisine at this stalwart coffee house.

Discover a taste of Chatterbox with several iconic Singaporean dishes on offer, alongside all your favourites at Silks. Available Wednesday to Sunday, 12 - 23 March.

Menu Highlight

Mandarin Chicken Rice

Undoubtedly the highlight on the menu, Mandarin Chicken Rice is highly-recommended. Using only chickens that weigh around 2kg each, Chef Liew has perfected his unique ‘steam-cook’ method to render succulent and juicy chicken each and every time – a drizzle of a lightly-seasoned jus enhances the innate sweetness and flavour of the chook.

Besides the quintessential fluffy and fragrant chicken rice which is cooked with specially-procured aged Jasmine rice and a trinity of chicken fat, shallots and pandan leaves, other essential accoutrement for the individual set includes a punchy proprietary chilli sauce, grated ginger, dark soy sauce and a soul-satisfying bowl of chicken broth.

Meet the Chef

Executive Chef, LIEW TIAN HEONG

With over 30 years of extensive experience in the culinary industry, Executive Chef, Liew Tian Heong, started as an assistant and worked his way through Mandarin Orchard’s (now Hilton Singapore Orchard) signature restaurants including Chatterbox, the previous Chinese restaurants – Pine Court and Mandarin Court, as well as the Banqueting Kitchen.

Now helming the Chatterbox kitchen, Chef Liew over the years has gone on numerous cross-cultural culinary exchange programmes across Asia Pacific for his mastery of the local cuisine and of roast and barbecue techniques. He has also since become a major force behind the further recognition of Chatterbox’s legendary Mandarin Chicken Rice and other local delights such as the Chatterbox Lobster Laksa, King Prawn Fried Hokkien Noodles, and many more.

He is highly sought out by food critics, local media, and loyal patrons either for interviews or to personally commend him on his masterful and tasty rendition of local fares at Chatterbox.

Chef Liew was recognised at the Hospitality Asia Platinum Awards Regional Series 2011-2013 as GOLD WINNER - HAPA Master Chef in the Asian Cuisine category. In 2016, Chatterbox was inducted into the elite Hall of Fame by the Singapore Prestige Brand Award in the Heritage Brand category.
