In June 2024, the well-loved American fast-food brand Chick-fil-A had a pop-up at Esplanade, seeing fully booked dine-in reservations and snaking queues over the three days it was around. Here’s some good news for those who have tried it and fallen in love with it: the brand is opening its first permanent outlet in Singapore in late 2025, marking the brand’s entry into Asia.
If you don’t already know, Chick-fil-A is known for its delicious fast food prepared with high-quality ingredients. The brand has more than 3,000 restaurants globally, and is particularly popular in its home country.
With the opening scheduled for late next year, details about the full menu are still under wraps. However, we have a strong hunch that its Original Chicken Sandwich will be a staple. This mouthwatering creation features a whole, boneless chicken breast sourced from Malaysia. It’s seasoned with a secret blend of spices, pressure-cooked to perfection in refined peanut oil, and served with crisp dill pickles and two buttered and toasted buns. It’s a classic we can’t wait to enjoy!
We hear there’ll also be a spicy rendition of this famous chicken sandwich, so stay tuned for the latest updates.
Another classic item from the chain is its Waffle Potato Fries, lightly dusted with sea salt. While these skin-on fries may not be the star of the show, they are said to be excellent fries in their own right.
During the June pop-up, four sauces were highlighted: the classic Chick-fil-A sauce, Garden Herb Ranch, Sweet & Spicy Sriracha, and Honey Mustard. Among these, our favourite was the original Chick-fil-A sauce, celebrated for its perfect blend of sweet, savoury, and tangy flavours.
