Lonely Planet review for Chatterbox

Chatterbox has ditched its old dull lobby digs for floor-to-ceiling 38th-floor views of the city. Its chicken rice is still legendary (both for its taste and high cost). Boiled chicken is plunged into ice then served cold with warm broth, fragrant rice, rich soy, chilli and freshly ground ginger. Singaporeans still flock here to pay 10 times what they’d pay at a hawker centre.

    Superb view and excellent Singaporian dishes

    enniesway recommends this,

    I took my colleagues here for some Lovely Chicken Rice and some excellent Laksa!
    You do not have to stay at the hotel to be able to dine here though I can highly recommend the hotel as well!

    The view is amazing, with the special effects from a thunderstorm! You have a great outlook on the city, especially if you have a drink in the bar first.

    The restaurant itself is a little clinical and staff is not as friendly as in the hotel itself though we came for the food and it was gorgeous!

    The Chatterbox is mostly known for the Chicken Rice but I can highly recommend the Laksa, another Lovely Singaporian dice which tasted excellent.

    We had a great Australian Chardonnay with our meal which is like all wine in Singapore, a bit pricy but tasted great.

    The restaurant is a tad pricy but with the great view and excellent food I can certainly recommend it, if you are in Singapore for only a few days, this gives you a great view of the city and some excellent local dishes!

    High class chicken

    skythong recommends this,

    Located at the 39 storey of Meritus Mandarin, it has a nice view. The setting is unique and orangey. With the yellow lights, red table settings, the whole place feels "orange-red". I like the nice and peaceful ambience. There are many Japanese patrons.

    I had the Chicken Rice set and a glass of Chin Chow. The set includes chicken rice, chicken breast meat, soup and 3 different sauces (dark sweet soya sauce, chilli and garlic). It looks very attractive. I love the rice most because it is really yummy. I do not like chicken breast meat though. The Chin Chow is sweet but not cold enough.

    It is like having a high class chicken rice... I think I still prefer the hawker style chicken rice for the chicken meat at a more value for money price. I missed the thigh meat...

    Chatterbox Chicken Rice

    eveho recommends this,

    The chicken rice here is probably the best in town! The generous portion of chicken is succulent, rice is fragrant, the chilli gives a kick to your tastebuds. A must-try!
