Visited this place for a very late dinner (at 10+pm) on a Friday night. First thing that struck us was that it was impressively packed despite the time. We took a queue number at 10.25pm but were informed that the restaurant has 20% off from 10.30pm onwards, and they told us that the discount would apply to us as well!

Food-wise we did not go for the premium items, but even the regular meats were decent. The drinks were free-flow and we could even switch between different flavours (Luohan/Sour Plum). We chose the 2 signature broths available, the Beauty Collagen Broth and the Spicy Nourishing Pork Bone Soup. Both were delicious! We found the former to be rich, flavourful and very comforting. It had a greater intensity of flavour than the soups we’ve tried at Hai Di Lao, and the La Mian that we ordered went well with it. The spicy soup was appetising and not as spicy as that of Hai Di Lao’s which better suited our palates. There’s different spice levels you can choose from too. The sauce station was impressive, with a huge variety of sauces that you can use to concoct a mixture to our own liking.

We finished off our meal with a complimentary yuzu ice blended mixture served in a pitcher with shot glasses which was cool, refreshing and fun. This topped off a service experience that was nothing short of impressive. It might have just been the service staff tending to us, but she was very attentive and polite, and patiently explained the system to us BIAP newbies.

Overall a great place, especially for late night suppers if you want to feel a little healthier instead of an oily plate of curry rice or bak chor mee. Personally, I feel that this place is even better than Hai Di Lao (unless you’re a huge fan of the free manicures and handphone protectors at the latter).
