Black Knight Hotpot (Millenia Walk)

Love Taiwanese mala soup as you can drink it. But probably not the best idea to get both peppery soups cos it was so spicy at the end for me.

Definitely not a cheap place for hotpot. It’s different from the usual haidilao as the soup are richer and comes with meat in the soup. The meat slices are expensive - but also one of the better ones I’ve had.

We spent about $300 for 5 pax. For similar style but cheaper I like txry. So probably will not return unless I want to have drinkable mala soup.

Love the thickness and the creaminess of the soup but it’s not for everyone! Friends felt that this is too creamy for their liking and only drank a few sips.

Found the prices for the hotpot ingredients to be expensive and not worth the price and the soup base itself is already $48.

Service by staff was good with the exception of the manager who was pushy and kept saying that the portion that we ordered was insufficient.

Would recommend to take the set which is $120 but it doesn’t include the fish maw chicken pot as the soup base, only includes lower tier soup bases and the ingredients included in the set are of a lower tier too.

Black Knight is a hotpot restaurant started from Taipei, having their outpost here in Marina Bay Sands.

During lunch time, they have lunch set promotion that second set will get 50% off for now.

Ru Rou Fang is one of the selection on the promotion. It comes with a bowl of soup and baked peanut, other than those included in the set (the vegetables). The taste itself wasn’t strong enough as compared to their chicken essence soup. It consider affordable for a meal here in MBS.

The service staff are really friendly and attentive. The waitress took the time to explain the different types of soup bases. She even advised us against ordering too much food and she was right because we ate till we were really food and it was lucky we listened to her. Food wise I must admit that the place is pricy but it's a good quality soup which I will be willing to pay for because you do not get such good quality ingredients in a hotpot soup base in other cheaper places. What you get is quality good for health nutritious flavourful soups and the beef cuts and belly cuts were pretty tender. I order the fish maw premium soup and spicy soup base, snowflake beef, pork belly and naibai. Do note that the spicy soup packs quick a spicy punch. They are not kidding.

I had noticed Black Knight Hotpot at MBS many months ago when the premises was under renovation but it's only when I saw @jiax22's Instagram Story recently that a visit was triggered.
There is no doubt this hotpot restaurant from Taiwan is pricey - their 2-soups-in-1-pot alone costs $48++. If you are however, partial to rich, flavourful soups, you may be interested to know they justify it by serving their soups fully rich and deeply flavourful from the get-go.
We had the "Taro with Spare Ribs" together with the "Spicy". The former contained a generous amount of yam, spare ribs and cabbage while the latter had big cubes of "frozen" tofu and beef tendon. Both soups were opaque from the plentiful ingredients used.
There's a pretty impressive list of items for cooking. I thought the prices for those weren't too far off from similar restaurants. To give you an idea, here's what we had: Snowflake Wagyu Beef ($38++), Okinawa Black Pork Belly ($28++), Fish Paste ($18++), Mixed Vegetable Platter ($14++). The pot of hot chrysanthemum tea cost us $10++.
Black Knight offers cooked dishes as well and even have a page in their menu devoted to rice and noodles (I read somewhere their Taiwan Braised Beef Noodles is very good). So you can always skip the hotpot if you don't fancy it.
Service was decent but nothing particularly outstanding.
