Nothing hits the spot like a pipping hot clay pot dish, especially on a rainy day.

One of my to-go places for comfort food, Lau Wang Claypot has finally opened within Bugis+. Cooked and served individually, the portions are generous yet affordable.

Must-order the popular Sesame Chicken (from $6.30). Boneless chicken cubes cooked in a fragrant thick gravy with a touch of chilli, it is best savoured over a bowl of white rice. Other dishes to add on are the Liver & Kidney (from $6.50) and Sliced Fish Herbal Soup (from $7.30), which helps to cut through the flavours.
