You should try Kai Xiang Food Centre which is located at (349 Jurong East Avenue 1 Singapore 600349?) been there quite a couple of times during weekends and they are pretty busy as usual. Food are pretty awesome, you can try their Oyster Omelette, “Hae Chor” (Prawn Rolls) and Marmite Chicken (Which usual are pork ribs). Overall spent $30-40 for 3 Pax. Can give it a try! (:

I would recommend the zi char at Choa Chu Kang block 787B, the waiting time is about 30~40mins the last time i went there. It was really worth the wait. Reasonable pricing as well. I think its called 81 seafood.

People keep saying to me go try Ah Pang steamboat and Zhi char at Mei Ling Street and I did. The steamboat is great and the Zhi Char is equally good! Must order deep fried fish and red wine paste chicken. Really high standard of cooking and great taste. Value for money!

As a food enthuiastic, I’ved heard quite a lot of good review and recommending this popular hawker stall including my colleague. Finally, I took my family of five and visited Ah Pang Seafood Steamboat yesterday, myself n wife, parents and my 3 years old son. From what I know from the staff, the minimum set for 2 to 3 persons is $24, so I asked the waitress wats the standard set for 4, she said $30 and we told her it’s fine for a start. Though it was quite crowded at the time, I was surprised we have our steamboat set up and served approx. in about 10 mins.
As I have seen a critics in regards to their service I was wandering will I be treated the same way cause I am not the kind of (guai guai Singaporean), if so I will definitely not give them face, but instead I was quite surprise by their friendly and prompt service. Nevertheless, it is the food I am more interested in so let me share about it. Firstly the steamboat set for $30 we’re were given 5 set of dishes and a plate of vegetables. The five sets were. Fish slices set, one set of pork slices, Fish Maw set, one set of prawns, scallop set. The veggie set is chinese cabbage mixed with Tang oh veg And 2 eggs. if I want to order extra set, I was told that it will be $6 each. As we are not the fish maw lovers( actually fish maw is quite value for money though), I asked if I can change to others and the reply was I can change it to anything that we want From chicken,fish ball, beef, clams, sea cucumber and many others I couldnt remember. So finally I choosed to change to a set of fish ball for my kid.
To be frank, all the ingredients looks fresh. I tasted the soup before the ingredients were put in and the taste is rich in flavor and yet not salty. It was hard to describe but I also taste sweetness in it but it blends very well altogether. After we put 50% of the ingredients in it and Bravo! The soup suddenly becomes incredibly tasty, like magic. One thing to mentioned about is the steamboat chille sause, definitely best choice for chiliie enthusiastic, cause it is really spicy, just that I personally felt that it is a bit more sour but my mum loves it.
We spend about 1 and a half hour there enjoying the food and conversation, in between the stove runs out of portable gas and it was noticed by the staff and they got it changed quite fast. The replenishing of soup is quite prompt too.
End of the day, I want to say, I have tried many steamboat in Singapore and Ah Pang steamboat is recently just added to one of the top of my list. Recommended!

Big Eater is inconsistent with their standard. They have seen better days.

I am surprised why no mention of Zai Shun. I consider them the best of the West.

Hey dear, you should try Zai Shun at Blk 253, Jurong East St 24, #01-205, S600253. It’s got great curry fish head, freshest steamed whole fish, amazing braised pig trotters, sinful fried prawn paste chicken. Yums! Give it a shot the next time you are here in the west! Lunch is better than dinner, in my opinion.
