Shi Li Fang (Orchard Central)

Went there for some dinner promo but the bill ended up reaching $80 for 2 pax!!! But the food was really great and we ate ALOT, they even give their customers a free and cute plushie soft toy. We ordered mala and collagen pork or chicken soup, both were really good and the dipping sauces we amazing.

definitely one of the more affordable options in the world of hotpots! meats and soup (tomato) were okay, nothing ultimately fantastic but all in all value for money $$ liked how you could get an individual pot to yourself :)

Pork & Chicken Hot Pot Set for 2 Pax (SGD$30.80)
Includes:
• 2 soup bases which are refillable (we got mala & tonic chicken)
• 1 meat platter of different pork types and chicken types
• 2 baskets of vegetables (u can choose 2 out of 3 basket options)
• 2 bowls of rice or noodle (different types available)
The pros are the tasty food, nice variety (as we got the 2pax set), affordable price and sufficient portion. The only con is the slow service.

Hotpot’s been around for donkey years, but it’s enjoyed a renaissance in recent years for some odd reason. With hundreds of hotpot joints blossoming up all over the country, and with stalwarts like Hai Di Lao & Beauty In A Pot, it really is becoming an oversaturated market.

However, Shi Li Fang’s claim to fame is that it’s the cheapest(?) hotpot place around. And I might actually be inclined to agree here, as the spread that’s pictured here plus more on the side set my buddy and I back about fifty bucks. Not bad considering that we’re two big eaters and we got some of those tasty, tasty premium meats.

The mala hotpot is as you’d expect; hot, peppery and guaranteed to make you sweat. The collagen chicken broth, on the other hand, was simply stellar. Wobbly collagen chunks are slowly melted down with wolfberries to form a deliriously delicious and wonderfully wholesome broth that’s thicker than Christina Hendricks. It’s so good that I didn’t really want to cook anything in it, instead longing to just pour it all down into my stomach.

Their meats and other offerings are decent, but nothing particularly outstanding. Their premium pork slices were quality stuff, and the beef was a beauty to behold. Seafood was super fresh and there’s really nothing to complain about. It’s certainly good eating at a good price, so round up the gang to bang this hottie of a pottie.

I have been keeping count of the steamboat affair with WB cos I promise him one steamboat every quarter, but this is the 5th steamboat we had this year. 🙄 WB rated this 5/5 cos as long as it's steamboat. 🤦

For about $20 a pax you get to have a set of meat and veg platter, free flow drink and sauce. Each pot you can get up to 2 soups (refillable) 👍🏻They have several set options to choose. I like the tonic chicken soup. When you can’t afford HDL but wish to eat hotpot, can try Shi Li fang. You can even accumulate points and exchange stuffed toys/novelty items. Not bad experience 👍🏻 (Do not expect to have performance for their handmade noodle like HDL 😂 i was having too high hope to see the staff dance with the noodle until i saw the staff tearing the noodle dough into smaller pieces like how a ban mian aunty prepare your Mee Hoon Kuey at food court😂) #jxeatsrecommend
