Chanced upon this restaurant while searching for a dinner spot at Raffles City and the ambience seemed pretty inviting - warm lighting, quiet environment, and not very crowded - so decided on this.

There's a huge variety of dishes on selection here so we decided to go with the signatures: the Fresh Chicken Hot Pot ($28.80) with an add-on of the Egg Bomb ($4.80), and the Fresh Clam Thick Beehoon ($10.80, not pictured). Even with it being just a small portion, the chicken hotpot was huge and it could pretty much feed all 3 of us with the chicken, cabbage, and radishes. The chicken meat was so tender and flavourful, and made even better with the broth (which you could ask for refills of!). While i thought the egg bomb could be crispier, just shred it into small pieces and let them soak in the broth - seriously a burst of flavours and textures which we couldn't get enough of. Just grab a steaming bowl of rice ($1.50) and you're good to go.

The Clam beehoon was also delicious with a concentrated seafood flavour, and I loved the chilli they gave to accompany it.

Seriously such a good, fililng meal and I'll definitely return to try their other dishes. Total damage ~$57 for 3 of us.

Edit: Returned again and besides the clam beehoon, I tried the Egg Fried Rice ($7.80) and the Luohan Huo & Dried Longan drink ($4.80). The fried rice had a bit of an addictive spicy kick and came with a substantial portion; though it's more to pair with their a la carte dishes rather than to eat on its own. As for the drink, just don't bother. I finished it in practically 3 gulps and it's not worth the price.
