Halal Food in Chix Hot Chicken @ Prinsep Street

Chix Hot Chicken opened its second and more spacious outlet at 64 Prinsep Street in February 2025, bringing Nashville-style hot fried chicken to the Rochor-Bugis corridor. Co-owned by Taufik Batisah, the singer-songwriter who won Singapore Idol's inaugural season, the restaurant represents Singapore's first dedicated Nashville hot chicken joint since its original Jalan Pisang location launched in 2018. The concept taps into the global fascination with this American South culinary tradition, where cayenne-spiced fried chicken achieves cult status through its signature fiery kick. The menu centres on Nashville-style hot chicken burgers accompanied by classic American sides and milkshakes, offering six spice levels from mild to the audaciously named Atomic. This customization allows cautious diners and heat-seekers alike to find their comfort zone, though the kitchen's higher spice tiers demand genuine tolerance for capsaicin intensity. The crispy exterior and juicy meat beneath represent the technical hallmarks that separate authentic Nashville hot chicken from ordinary fried chicken preparations. Prinsep Street's location places the restaurant within comfortable walking distance of Rochor, Bugis, and Bras Basah MRT stations, drawing lunch crowds from nearby offices and evening diners exploring the area's nightlife. Operating hours extend from 11:30am to 9pm on weekdays, with Friday, Saturday, and public holiday service running until 10pm. The expanded space accommodates the growing following that the brand has cultivated since establishing Singapore's first taste of this distinctly American regional cuisine seven years ago.
