Top Singapore food deliveries

First published on 14 Mar 2011. Updated on 11 Apr 2011. Arnold’s Fried Chicken Dial for this: Whole Spring Chicken & Potato Platter Delivery area: From Kallang to Pasir Ris This hidden gem needs to be unveiled as one of the top guns. We suggest the potato platter of potato fries, wedges and criss-cut fries, with the cheese dip to match that juicy fried chicken. #02-99, 810 City Plaza, Geylang Rd (6276 6537, www.arnoldsfriedchicken.com). Daily 10.30am-10pm. Minimum order of $12. Delivery charge $3. The Chicken Rice Company Dial for this: Chicken Rice (duh!) Delivery area: Islandwide There are probably more chicken rice places than live chickens in Singapore, but The Chicken Rice Company isn’t your average stall. Here they use only ‘Happy Chickens’ – chickens reared in a climate-controlled environment, free of growth hormones and antibiotics. The result: meat that is silky, tender and also low in fat and cholesterol. Blended shallots is mixed into their ginger sauce, which really brings out the fragrance of their chicken rice. Lau Pa Sat Festival Market, 18 Raffles Quay or 600 @ Toa Payoh, Lor 4 Toa Payoh (6352 2622, www.chickenricecompany.com). MRT: Raffles Place (Lau Pa Sat banch), Toa Payoh (Toa Payoh branch). $6. Deliveries Mon-Sat 11am-2.30pm and 6pm-9.30pm; minimum order of $25. Delivers islandwide, between 45 and 90 minutes; charge 10 per cent of order, varies according to location. Dapao Dial for this: Black Pepper Chicken Wrap Delivery area: From Raffles Place to Tanjong Pagar MRT Dig into wraps and salads flavoured with traditional South-East Asian flavors at Dapao. The chicken wrap comes in a home-made black pepper sauce that isn’t too heavy on the palate. Finish the meal with a moist and light carrot loaf accented with crunchy nuts. Dapao prides itself on using only locally produced ingredients – local producers can wait until the produce is fully ripe before picking ensuring a fuller flavour, as well as better vitamin and nutrient content. #01-01 Far East Square, 3 & 4 Amoy St (6557 0686, www.dapao-takeaway.com). MRT: Raffles Place. $12. Delivers Mon-Fri from 8am-6pm to areas near Raffles Place MRT and Tanjong Pagar MRT. No charge, delivers within 30 minutes. Diet Butler Dial for this: Grilled Balsamic Pork Loin with French Bean Delivery area: Newton This restaurant focuses on healthy meals that taste good enough to tickle your tastebuds. Meat lovers should try the ribeye steak or the grilled balsamic pork loin with French bean for a satisfying meal; for light eaters, the Caesar salad with grilled chicken should quell the hunger. #02-07 10 Winstedt Rd (6733 3250, www.thedietbutler.com). Mon-Sat 11am-10pm; last orders for delivery 8.30pm. Minimum order $15; charge depending on location, only available within 10km of the café. Golden Pillow 933 Dial for this: Golden Pillow Curry Chicken Bun Delivery area: Islandwide If you’re hit by a craving for curry, you’re in luck. The Golden Pillow’s name refers to its unique design for a soft bite, wrapping the savoury curry while keeping the strong aroma in a loaf of bread made from high-quality pastry of wheat and butter. We’d suggest the curry chicken bun, but this joint also delivers Chinese dishes such as sambal chicken drumsticks, curry prawns, deep-fried squids and salad fritters to name a few. 1 Kaki Bukit Rd 1, #05-11 Enterprise One (6323 8933, www.goldenpillow933.com.sg).

Jalilah’s Dial for this: Satay Set Delivery area: Woodlands, Yishun and Sembawang Satay, pizzas, sandwiches and kebabs are staples at this halal restaurant; don’t miss the chicken, mutton or beef satay with traditional peanut gravy and six ketupats (pressed rice squares) at just $14.90 (15 sticks). Unbutton those pants further as pizzas such as the Hawaiian Delight (chicken ham and pineapple chunks), Singapore Original (capsicum, onions, fresh chilli and spiced ground beef), chicken, beef, lamb or mixed kebabs, and sandwiches –such as the roast beef, tandoori chicken and the Apricot Chutney Roast Chicken – may also tempt you. #01-520 Blk 527 Bedok North St 3 (6777 9777, www.jalilahs.com). Daily 11am-11pm. $3 delivery charge, no minimum order; limited delivery areas. Sarpino’s Pizzeria Dial for this: Double Pepperoni Pizza Delivery area: Islandwide Another place to consider in the world of pizza deliveries is Sarpino’s.

Try one of their combo meals to guarantee all-round satisfaction; oven-baked pastas, salads and other irresistible pizzas are also available.

The Shepherd’s Pie Dial for this: The Classic Beef Delivery area: Islandwide Parties of four to six should try this: the classic beef pie made with ground beef and mixed vegetables, and topped with cheese and mashed potatoes for that traditional English taste. Go for the tasty rendang or scrumptious black-pepper beef if spice is your kind of nice. #06-05 Shimei East Kitchen Blk 3015 Bedok North St 5 (6789 0707, www.theshepherdspie.com). Daily 11am-9pm.

Daily 9am-6pm. Minimum order of $50; delivers islandwide (place internet orders one day in advance). Veganburg Dial for this: Cracked Pepper Mayo Burger Delivery area: Islandwide Plant your lips around these: fast food free from animal products, gluten, GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms), preservatives and trans fats. The cracked pepper mayo burger is a crisp yet moist soy-based patty evenly slathered with garlic mayonnaise and lettuce, and encased in a soft, organic wholemeal grain bun. If you like seaweed in minute doses, you’ll definitely like the fries.
