Maxwell Food Centre's famous chicken rice store. It has the longest queue during lunch time, so its hard to miss it.
Chinatown's "Great Wall" claypot frog legs. Served in dark soya sauce and spring onion. Goes really well with the porridge served there.

People's Park Food Centre - oyster oil chicken wings from the soup stall, niang dou fu, fried kway teow.
Chinatown Food Centre - Hongkong Street Dim Sum - prawn chee cheong fun, char siew pao, prawn "harkou", fish ball noodle (facing the lift), fried bee hoon and noddle with traditional ketchup.
Maxwell Food Centre - Zen Zen porridge, fried fish noodle but I like only the fried fish only, always order only fried fish with soup no noodle
HongLim Food Centre - same as Fantagf's choices, the Outram fried kway Teow is also nice.

Chinatown food centre 2nd most popular claypot chicken rice, so well hidden, you can't find it.
From hong lim, I only like ah hui hokkien prawn noodles, 2nd floor, next to the wu xiang stall. I always order soup, then add a ton of chilli powder.
Of all the hokkien prawn noodles I've eaten in singapore, this is the best one without the need to queue. I would say dorset road one is the best in the universe, but you have to queue like no tomorrow -
Maxwell food centre also got good claypot chicken rice, but pity its waiting time, honestly the world would end before your order arrived.

lian he ben ji claypot rice?
my fav..... -

That day went there, there are 2 prawn noodle stalls, which one?In fact, I ate from both stalls. I like the stall with the china wife, $2 - the soup is great, nice, tasty so yummy, has prawn taste. The fried shallots taste real delicious. The other one with the fat wife minimum $3, the taste of soup so so only, when I ate the soup was full of garlic smell, no prawn taste,don't like it.

I am not sure though. Because sometimes u gotta order the more expensive prawn noodle to know it. but when i eat the stall that i said not nice they did not completely peel off the shells of the prawns. -
