Quick answer: Looking for Taiwanese fried chicken in Singapore? The island has plenty of legit spots. Xi Men Jie nails the classic XL cutlet, Devil Chicken packs a spicy punch, and Shihlin remains a reliable old hand. For halal options, Fried Chicken Master just opened. 爺 YEAH goes XXL at Timbre+ while I Love Taimei throws in fun celebrity names. Here are seven that don’t disappoint.
Xi Men Jie
Xi Men Jie has been slinging Taiwanese street food since 2005, and their XL chicken cutlets hit the spot when you want a proper night-market crunch without leaving Singapore.
The signature XL Chicken Cutlet (under $10) is a golden slab of crisp-coated thigh that stays juicy inside. Pair it with a bowl of shredded chicken mee sua ($6.50+) or braised pork rice ($6.50+) to turn a snack into a full meal. They also do a roasted Taiwanese sausage ($5.90+) and a brown sugar boba milk tea ($3.40+) that’s just sweet enough.
Nine outlets across the island mean one is probably near you. The flagship at Westgate (B2-03/04, 3 Gateway Drive) is open daily 10am–10pm, right by Jurong East MRT. Call +65 6517 9610 if you need to check something.

Devil Chicken
Devil Chicken lives up to its name with a marinade that brings serious heat. Since landing from Taiwan in 2019, it has built a loyal following among people who like their fried chicken bold and spicy.
The chicken ($7.90) comes as a thigh cut, brined until it is tender, then coated in a secret spice blend. You can go original or spicy—the spicy one tingles on the tongue without wiping out all the flavour. They also sell devilish nuggets, crispy chicken skin, and button mushrooms on the side.
Head to Jurong Point (#03-89F, 1 Jurong West Central 2) or Bedok Mall (#B2-K11, 311 New Upper Changi Road), both open 11am–10pm daily. Check their Facebook for updates.

Shihlin Taiwan Street Snacks
Shihlin is the OG that many Singaporeans grew up with. They brought the XXL chicken trend here back in 2003, and they still turn out a crisp, juicy cutlet that tastes like Taipei’s Shilin Night Market.
The XXL Crispy Chicken ($4.90) is the one to get—big, crunchy, and never dry. Sweet plum potato fries ($3) and handmade oyster mee sua round out the experience. Value sets from $7.50 bundle an egg crepe or tempura so you can try a bit of everything.
Outlets are everywhere, from VivoCity (#02-42, 1 HarbourFront Walk) to ION Orchard (#B4-62, 2 Orchard Turn). Most are open 11am–10pm. Grab and go, or find a bench nearby.

I Love Taimei
I Love Taimei makes fried chicken playful by naming items after Taiwanese stars. The S.H.E. Chicken Thigh ($4.90) is the go-to—extra-crispy or topped with cheese if you want a little indulgence.
They also do popcorn chicken and sides like enoki mushrooms ($3.90), plus bubble teas from $2.80. A shake of sour plum seasoning over the chicken gives it a sweet-sour kick that sets it apart from the usual pepper-salt finish.
The Suntec City outlet (#02-616, 3 Temasek Boulevard) opens 12pm–9:30pm daily, with extended hours on weekends. Ring +65 6336 5987 to reserve if you are ordering a big batch.

Super Chicken
Super Chicken’s Bugis flagship keeps the lights on till 5am, making it the hero of late-night chicken runs. The Taiwanese chain started in 1997 and finally landed here with a Signature Taiwanese Salted Crispy Chicken ($5.90) that is as big as your face.
The batter shatters cleanly, the meat stays tender, and the salt-and-pepper seasoning is properly savoury. They also sell crispy chicken skin ($4.90) and chicken burgers. Some items are halal-friendly, so ask the team if that matters to you.
Find them at 534 North Bridge Road, Singapore 188750, open 11am–5am daily. Call +65 6223 6785 if you are heading there after midnight—just to be sure.
No website, but the storefront under the Bugis shophouses is hard to miss.
Fried Chicken Master
Fried Chicken Master is the pick for halal Taiwanese fried chicken. The Taiwan-born chain returned to Singapore in 2024 and lives up to its name with crisp-skinned, well-marinated chicken that comes in bento boxes ($7 and up) with rice and sides.
Beyond the classic fried chicken, they serve gua bao (Taiwanese steamed buns) and snack boxes with cheese fries or mushrooms. Everything is halal-certified, so your whole group can eat together without splitting orders.
Suntec City (#02-601, 3 Temasek Boulevard) and Century Square (#B1-38) are the two main outlets, both open 10am–10pm. WhatsApp +65 8886 8738 or email [email protected] for catering queries.

爺 YEAH Taiwanese Street Food
爺 YEAH goes all out with an Insane XXXL Chicken Cutlet that is pretty much a dining-table centrepiece. The stall at Timbre+ channels the energy of Shilin Night Market with bold flavours and generous portions.
The cutlet is the star, but their braised pork rice and three-cup chicken (from $8) are just as steady. They deliver through the usual apps, so you can get the whole spread at home.
Visit them at Timbre+, 73A Ayer Rajah Crescent, #01-04/05, Singapore 139957, open 11am–8:30pm daily. WhatsApp +65 9842 8885 to order ahead.

How to choose
The right shop comes down to a few small things. Think about whether you need halal—Fried Chicken Master is the only fully halal-certified option here. If you are out late, Super Chicken keeps frying until 5am. Size matters too: 爺 YEAH’s Insane XXXL can feed a table, while Shihlin’s XXL is a solid solo treat under $5. Devil Chicken’s spicy marinade brings a different kind of heat from the usual pepper-salt, so if you like a kick, that is your stop.
Convenience also plays a part. Xi Men Jie and Shihlin have multiple outlets island-wide, so they are easy to squeeze into a lunch break. I Love Taimei’s celebrity names make it a fun pick for sharing with friends who have not tried it before. Prices cluster between $4.90 and $7.90 for a main portion, with bento sets a little more.
