R&B Express

Landed at Changi, dropped my bags, and headed straight to Newton Food Centre on my first night in Singapore. It is a short walk from Newton MRT and was still buzzing at 9.30pm with locals, families, and brilliant hawker energy. I went straight to Stall 76, R&B Express, grabbed an ice cold beer from Beer 77, and within five minutes the wings and satay arrived together, fresh from the grill. Sticky, lacquered chicken wings with sweet char and a punchy sambal chilli sauce. Beautifully charred chicken and lamb satay with rich peanut sauce and crisp cucumber and onion to cut through it. Quick service, fantastic food, and the perfect introduction to Singapore’s obsession with eating. Bring cash if you are visiting as they were taking DBS Digibank when I went.

Michelin guide restaurant most notable for their chicken wings. They serve chicken wings with a tangy and lime sauce, chicken / beef / lamb satay skewers with peanut sauce, and popiah. I would only come back to share a beer and eat with friends. To be honest, nothing stood out to me. The satay skewers were good but the meat could be seasoned a little better – the peanut sauce carried the flavor making the meat sweet and peanuty. The chicken wings alone tasted like regular rotisserie chicken seasoned only with salt – the lime spicy sauce provided adds the flavor kick to the chicken.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ R&B Express, Stall No. 76, Newton Food Centre — 5/5 We had a really good experience at R&B Express, Stall No. 76 at Newton Food Centre. We ordered the chicken wings, and they were genuinely one of the best things we have eaten in Singapore so far. The wings were juicy, tender and packed with flavour, with a delicious charcoal-grilled, slightly smoky and charred flavour that really stood out. Unlike some of the other Singaporean dishes we had tried, which felt a little bland for our taste, these chicken wings had a strong and satisfying flavour. The spicy, tangy chilli-lemon sauce served with the wings was the real game changer. It had a lovely lemony tang and a good spicy kick. Dipping the smoky chicken wings into the sauce completely transformed the taste and made every bite even better. The combination of the charcoal flavour, juicy chicken and spicy-tangy sauce was fantastic. Another great thing is that the queue is usually quite short and the crowd is not too heavy, so you can easily come, order, eat and leave without spending a long time waiting. The stall generally opens around 5:30–6:00 PM, making it a great evening option if you want to avoid a huge crowd. No wonder R&B Express has the Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition — it definitely sticks to its name and deserves the recognition. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Singapore, especially if you are at Newton Food Centre. I would definitely come back again just for these chicken wings! 5/5 ⭐️ — Absolutely delicious and highly recommended!

Their chicken wing is awesome! The taste is nice full of bbq smell and the meat is soft and flavourful. The satay meat for chicken and pork, both is delicious too. Meat portion is just nice and the texture is soft. Will support this stall again

Wings are $1.80 a piece, and the wings are smaller size than regular BBQ wings. Supposed it is Michelin hence 10 cents more than the standard prices around. It’s well marinated and moist. The queue is long, good thing it moves. If you order less, there’s no lime provided. Not that lime costs much, could just be generous. The satay is $1 a stick. The pork ones have some fats, which is good. The sauce is way too sweet. Do without.

Michelin 2024 & 2025 winner. Sells Satay and grilled chicken wings. Newton Hawker Centre location (self-service outlet). Store ran by a man & a woman. The satay is slightly dried and smaller. Wee too sweet for me. The chicken wings were too charred at some places. The order (thingy) broke and did not buzz. I think other stalls could be better (food and experience).

Delicious satay sticks and chicken wings from R&B Express in Newton Food Centre. The mix plate of satay sticks was well marinated with the char flavour from the coals. BBQ Chicken wings was also beautifully seasoned. A generous serving of peanut sauce and chilli sauce was also included. It’s no wonder this place has a Michelin Bib Gourmand.

My favorite ahop in Newton. Always eat here ! They accept a lot of payment method .. eat while it’s hot ! Shiok! Best!
