Lynns Nanyang Kitchen serves both roasted chicken (烧鸡) and cold-boiled chicken (冰镇白斩鸡) as its signature dishes with either rice, noodle or porridge. Side dishes are also available to complement the chicken dishes. Lynns also serve their homemade Nyonya kuihs (or kuehs) and Hainanese kopi, soft-boiled eggs and toast breakfast sets. There are discounts for traditional toast sets.

The restaurant’s signature roasted chicken rice is served on a paper boat with pickled vegetables. The rice is well-cooked with chicken stock, light brownish in colour and has rich flavours of the stock. The roasted chicken is not dry and has retained its tenderness and juiciness. This chicken rice dish is similar but not entirely the same as that in Singapore and offers a different taste experience.

The colourful Nyonya kuehs are laid out on a shelf hanging on a wall near the counter. There are various types of kueh to choose from, some sweet, some savoury and each type of kueh will have their unique flavours. The kuehs are sold in 2 pieces per order and nice to dine-in with Lynn’s traditional kopi or as dessert after chicken rice lunch or take away.

The next visit to Lynns will probably be in a morning to go for their traditional toast set. Or maybe to go for their “cold-boiled” white chicken for lunch.
