DM Chicken Review: 100cm Chicken, Prawn And Fries Platter With Free 4D Rides At Chinatown

The home to many eateries and hawker centres such as Hong Lim Food Centre , Chinatown has become a stop for foodies to get their fix of good food. Threw open its doors last year, DM Chicken is raved by many for their remarkable portions and house-made sauces.

It is no surprise that I was swayed by the compliments they’ve received and decided to head down to try this out. 100cm Chicken And Prawn Platter At Chinatown | DM Chicken Food at DM Chicken DM Chicken serves a few different platters, ranging from just chicken to a combination of chicken and varying seafood. We ordered their 100cm DM Chicken + DM Prawn ($110+) and waited patiently for our feast to arrive.

Diced into small cubes, the bits of DM Chicken were doused in a non-spicy sauce, and tossed with tteokbokki, carrots and potatoes. The brown, thick sauce reminded me of the homey and comforting meals my mum often makes for me. It made up for the shortcomings of the carrots and chicken.

While the prawns were not the freshest, most were still sweet and had a slight crunch to it. The heat from the aromatic sauce slowly crept up on me and lingered in my mouth for a while.

Besides the DM Chicken and DM Prawn, the platter came with a basket of fried chicken with fries, two sets of lamb chops, a plate of squid ink balls, and a bowl of fruit salad. The golden brown skin of the fried chicken crackled as I sunk my teeth into it.

The kind folks at DM Chicken took the initiative to trim the lamb chop into small pieces for us, a kind action since we all know how difficult it is to get into the nook and crook of a lamb bone. The sourness from the lemon, which we squeezed over the lamb chops, cuts through the saltiness of the lamb, which I was very grateful for as it balanced out the flavours.

Topped off with raisins and a white mayo-like sauce, this bowl reminded me of the salad that often comes with the fried prawns at banquets. Alternatively, choose to get their a la carte Steamboat and BBQ buffet ($19.90+ for weekday lunch, $24.90+ for weekend lunch and daily dinner) that offers five different soup bases for you to choose from.

With over 40 items to choose from, some side dishes and even an array of sauces, I’d say it offers a bang for your buck! When the heat got too real for us, we ordered their Watermelon Juice Tower Big ($18.80+) and I was utterly shook.

You’d be shocked, like I was, to see the cosy interior, which is a 180-degree change from the storefront. Forget about your woes while you revel in the food and embrace the uplifting atmosphere of DM Chicken. A spending of at least $20 per person will entitle you to a free ride in their 4D theater.

For the value of the steamboat, I would definitely visit again with my family and friends.
