Looking for BBQ places?

Been visiting Aroy Mak Mookata at least once a year since their old location at Macpherson Road, but now they have moved to Jalan Besar, opposite Sim Lim Tower, near Rochor MRT.

The mookata buffet used to be split between normal and premium pricing, but now it is only one price at $23.80 nett, introduced a few months back, with no GST or service charge. If you top up $5, you get free flow fountain drinks such as authentic Thai Milk Tea, Thai Green Milk Tea, Lemongrass, and more.

With this pricing, you get seafood, marinated meat, vegetables, processed food, and free flow sauces and condiments, plus one free ice cream. Seafood selection includes flower crab, clams, sotong, dory fish, mussels, and oysters. There used to be more options like crayfish and scallops, but still a steal considering the price. Freshness was good, especially for prawns and clams, while the rest were decent.

There was a wide range of marinated meats including chicken, beef, and pork. Marination was mild, would be better with stronger flavour, but at least the cuts were bite sized. I recommend sticking to non‑marinated or sesame flavour, and also getting the smoked duck. Dip into their sauce and enjoy.

Soup base was too plain. Even after cooking all the food, it stayed plain. It is good that soup starts neutral, but after cooking, the juices should enrich it. This was a disappointment, and I hope they improve the taste of the soup base.

They offered various dipping sauces, including different types of Thai chili sauce, belachan chilli, garlic, chilli padi, and even mayo and nacho cheese sauce, to enhance the flavour.

Overall, in terms of taste and quality, I felt it fell short compared to the past. In terms of pricing, it was still worth it. Eat mookata, enjoy air‑con, and free flow drinks. I do miss their braised meat rice, which they served for a period.

Cash or PayNow/PayLah only.

[CLARKE QUAY, SINGAPORE] If you want a great time with friends and don't mind spending abit more, @hanjip.sg is honestly a really good option. Think Korean BBQ with solid meats at the perfect doneness and other delicious dishes to enjoy as well!

They have launched a new menu with stews like Spicy Pollock Roe Stew 🍲 ($28) that might seem intimidating, but turn out to be incredibly rich. Their classics like the Seafood Pancake 🐙 ($25) and Stir Fried Chicken with Cheese 🧀 ($35) are still consistently good as crowd pleasers.

They have refreshed their meat menu as well with new Wagyu options, but their USDA Prime Cuts that I've had are really amazing with its tender and juicy flavours.

Do finish up with their Bingsu Shaved Ice 🍧 ($20), and the slight tartness of the mango paired perfectly well with light fluffy milk ice.

They have many ongoing promotions, with free Wagyu Oyster Blade when you reserve via Chope and free A5 Wagyu Ribeye if it's your birthday month. Honestly that's really generous in my opinion 😱
