Eating at Song Fa Bak Kut Teh Chinatown Point is not exactly a cheap option. However, it is air-conditioned and a comfortable spot to enjoy good old Teochew Style bak kut teh and a variety of side dishes.
Song Fa Bak Kut Teh (Originally at Clarke Quay) has opened a second branch at Chinatown Point! Yes, there are still queues at this one, but the perk is that it’s in aircon and more modern surrounds.
Taikoo Lane Hotpot Review: Chinatown Point
While it’s the perfect place to pop by for lunch or dinner, Wu Wang Guo 勿忘锅 Hot Pot is also a great supper spot as they open till 3am!
The food was fine, but my cheap-bastard-hack of not paying for dipping sauces had its limits: it took a while for me to coax the taste of pork and vegetables into the plain water, and I still had to spike it with sodium from my selected mala broth.
The best part is that you can eat it in 2 ways and you can enjoy hotpot after that.
We thought it is worth trying the Q Fish dry pot since Qi Lai Feng is the sole restaurant that offer this unique item. And having it dry first and next as hotpot is a bonus.
Overall, the flavours were good for the dishes I ordered although I was still hungry after eating the steak as it was really thin but the mountain of fries does make up for the lack of meat. I do not mind visiting them again to try the other pork dishes as the quality of the pork used in the restaurant is good
They seriously don't salt their meat at all.
At Gochi-So Shokudo, the pork rice bowl would probably be the best way to enjoy the the premium grade meat.
For a fuss-free dining experience, and affordable yet good ramen, I really recommend Kaneta Shoten. Just take note of their break times, which happens from 3pm to 5pm on weekdays.
The dining area is pleasant and the service is great. Although the menu is not extensive, the food is of good quality and the prices are reasonable. Kaneta Shoten is one the best places for casual dining in Chinatown Point.
On the first look, Kaneta Shoten seems quite promising, and I will probably return to try the broth versions.
I'm normally torn between their laksa, chicken cutlet or curry chicken.
The good Thai food and the smiles and the jovial chatter of the Thai staff provided a perfect anti-dote to Chinatown Point lunchtime stress.
In a nutshell, for such as price point, I wouldn’t complain for the quality and standard Bowl Thai offered.
The mango flavoured ice cream that came with their desserts was not bad though.
The new Hui Lau Shan outlet in Singapore is going to be located in Chinatown Point.
Hyang Yeon is definitely worth visiting at lunchtime.
A cocktail of convenient location, affordable pricing and customisability is a recipe for success.
Lotus kitchen recently opened as a slightly upscale spin off of Lotus Vegetarian Restaurant in the heart of Chinatown, promising to make gourmet vegetarian food more accessible to the masses.
Most of the vegetarian dishes here attempted to recreate meat dishes and replicate them with vegetarian alternatives as much as possible with familiar flavours, making these dishes palatable for the average diner.
菜单上包括新创菜色以及莲心素食原有的人气招牌菜,以本地风味和台式素食料理为主,共有超过50道现代素食料理。
The tendon at Kohaku was still good, but I thought they were nicer when we first tasted them at Suntec.
The flesh was springy and lovely to bite into, as well. In short, this was simply seafood haven, and I was happy to have tried it.
The set came with a container of cabbage which was first added to the hot stock, along with sliced pork, chicken, prawns, fishballs, sliced fish, squid, pig’s liver, and a complimentary dish of 3 abalone.
There is a Sendakan stall right next to Jiakali at Chinatown Complex Food Centre (335 Smith Street #02-254), where I grabbed this fried pork hor fun.

Every item was good, with the only exception being the noodles having a slight kee or alkaline flavour, although this was made up for by the outstanding sauce made of dried shrimps and kelp.

A trip to Maxwell to da bao brought us to some of our favorites and some new experiences too. China Street Fritters and their Ngoh Hiang, Liver Rolls, Egg Slice and Sausage with Bee Hoon.
Nice. The rendang was nutty and lemak
Here was the yuxiangqiezi from Birds of a Feather, a place that I haven't been back to in ages. The dishes were dressed up with lots of fancy garnishes; their barramundi chazuke was more upscale (complete with a theatrical presentation) compared to the one at Sichuan Alley.
Birds Of A Feather 2022 115 Amoy Street #01-01 https://www.birdsofafeather.com.sg/ Pork Dumplings (SGD $17)
Overall, this is the first time I came to BOF and I totally enjoyed the food here. Instead of the overpowering spicy Sichuan cuisine, most of the dishes have been well thought out, multi-layered yet balanced, delicious and well-executed.
