[CLOSED] Happy Mookata (Serangoon)

The third outlet of popular Happy Mookata in Golden Mile, this joint in Serangoon is great for group dinners as well as post-drinks supper (it opens till 4am daily). The $25.90 buffet allows you two soup bases — chicken and tom yum, along with a selection of almost 30 ingredients and their signature nacho cheese dip, which Burpple Tastemaker Denise Ong finds "seriously addictive and highly sinful". Zoom in on their black pepper marinated beef, popcorn chicken and tom yum prawns, then end the meal on a sweet note with their free flow ice cream. Take note that drinks are an additional $2.90. The mookata here may not be out of this world, but it's very decent, affordable and will definitely hit the spot for you and your friends when the craving strikes! Pro tip: Check out their other outlets at Sunset Lane if you're in the west, and Golden Mile Tower if you're in the east!
Avg Price: $30 per person

Clean, and decent. Brightly lit, and bare interior, shouldn't deter you away. The service is great, quick to response and very fast in clearing the dishes, leaving you space to grab more food.

Well marinated with sesame oil, sesame seeds and garlic, their meat is quite delicious. Ingredients are fresh, and I absolutely love their freshwater crayfish, small, fresh enough, firm and crunchy. I orders rounds of it.

Recently, they introduce a tom yum soup base, which was decent but as you keep cooking, the soup turned extremely sour that even my mom disapproved. I think they should return to the drawing board to tweak the broth. I'm still sticking to the chicken broth, light and still the best after the grilled meat oil dripped into the soup sexy and seductively.

Nachos cheese blend, is seriously, I repeat, seriously addictive and highly sinful and overly blood vessel clotting. Everything just went well with the nachos cheese sauce, and I mean literally everything. From their deep fried food (we had popcorn chicken, just so good) to their grilled pork belly and even their "abalone" which my Brother vouch for taste yummy with that nachos cheese sauce.

Be warned, you will definitely feel fat after the meal, but leaving the place absolutely happy.

☺ Anyone has good Mookata places to share?😋
