Took one bite of this and regretted that we ordered the small portion only. Tangy, savory mentaiko sauce on top of salmon sashimi and seasoned rice. What's not to love?
This mookata tastes so good. The chilli is a must try. The soup broth captures all the essence of the meat being grilled, and is so flavourful. The queue is long, so go early and in small groups to avoid disappointment! Bowadays when I think of Thai food, I think of this mookata. The meats are marinated thoroughly, and it is affordable. One set ($40) can feed up to 3 people. So it is quite affordable! Good and cheap eat.
It isn't strictly a "zi char" place but I stuck it under this category as it's the closest. Anyway, there aren't many places in Singapore that serve both Hainanese chicken rice AND steamboat together. This one happens to be my favourite. And a lot has to do with the awesome chicken rice chilli sauce - I dip everything in it!
Unlike the trending buffet style, steamboat here comes in small or big sets, so just double up for bigger groups. Each set contains an assortment of seafood, fishball, sea cucumber, meat, eggs and vegetable. You can always inform the staff what you prefer to exclude or add more of. Of course, there's always a la carte orders too.
Besides chicken rice, other specialities like Hainanese pork chop and satay are also available. Don't miss out on their aromatic "kopi-o" either.
Our bill for half a chicken, a small steamboat set, an extra plate of beef, 3 bowls of rice and 3 cups of "kopi-o" = $54. I find that to be pretty good value.
Nice good fresh food... Cheapest mookata in the market !

Ordered the strong broth and you could literally taste that intensity of the pork broth within that is so thick and sinful. This one comes with Sukiyaki Pork and an egg. It's quite interesting how the broth changes over time; the fatty bits of the pork melting into the soup causing chewable blobs within and the runny egg that is ever-slippery that would just slide around the bowl and eventually get absorbed into the broth, creating a less heavy but more refreshing broth alongside the noodles. For a guy who doesn't really fancy Ramen, I am in love!
After wandering around basement four of ION Orchard debating what to have, we decided on this ramen place. They offer a choice of red miso, white miso and shoyu for the soups of which I chose the red miso. Found it quite concentrated and intense but rather oily. The pork slices were mushily soft and seemed to have been marinated in some kind of sauce which gave it a lot of flavour. Quite a change from the classic chashu. Egg is sold separately.
Herbal peppery pork rib soup cannot be described with words. Craving for this finally satisfied. Perfectly peppery enough for me who's not into spicy food. Good for a cooling night.
What's better than having a bowl of hot bak kut teh in this chilly rainy December weather! Okay, maybe the bowl of mixed pig organ soup!
More from Long bar steakhouse. Tasting of ribeye steaks with foie gras. Wagyu, USDA Prime and Austrlian beef. Damn juicy flavorful cuts.
