Chiko Pollo

Chiko Pollo operates as an innovative Muslim-owned fusion restaurant at 28 Madras Street in the vibrant Jalan Besar district, created by the successful founders of dessert destination Lola Faye and launched in April 2023. This bold culinary venture specializes in creative fusion cuisine that combines Western comfort foods with Asian-inspired flavors, all prepared with halal-certified ingredients and generous portions designed for sharing among friends and families.

The dynamic menu showcases signature dishes including their XL Salted Egg Sotong with crispy fried squid in salted egg sauce, Seafood Lemak Chilli Api Pasta, Smoked Duck Brown Butter Pasta, and their namesake Chiko Pollo Original featuring crispy popcorn chicken and fries drenched in signature sambal sauce. Operating Tuesday through Sunday from 12 PM to 11 PM with last orders at 11:15 PM, they offer substantial dishes like Classic Cheeseburgers, Truffle Fries, and creative combinations that demonstrate culinary innovation within halal parameters.

Located below The Great Madras Hotel with convenient access from Rochor and Little India MRT stations, Chiko Pollo represents the evolution of halal dining in Singapore, where traditional restrictions inspire culinary creativity rather than limitation. Their success in blending Western and Asian influences while maintaining complete halal compliance has attracted food enthusiasts seeking bold flavors and Instagram-worthy presentations that celebrate both culinary innovation and religious dietary requirements.
