There may not be snow in Sinagpore, but it sure feels like winter right now with temperatures in the mid twenties. So why not grab three pals and warm up with @charstewkitchensg signature Peppery Chicken & Pig Stomach Charcoal Hotpot ($29 nett)? That’s right, they serve the soup in a claypot that’s still sitting on a heavy but still portable charcoal stove straight to your table.⠀

As you might expect from the name, it’s pretty peppery, but you can still taste the other herbs that went into this nourishing pot of soup. Due to the soup being boiled with chicken bones and goji berries, it also has a palatably pleasant sweetness all throughout the silky smooth soup. Additionally, there’s an abundance of chicken, pig stomach & veggies floating inside the boiling pot of soup. Pig stomach normally carries a strong porky odour, but Char Stew’s one had completely eliminated that odour, leaving behind a charmingly chewy piece of offal.
