we’re having:
🍴Fish Fillet with Green Chili & Pepper
🍴 Twice cooked Pork
🍴 Fried string beans
🍴 Chicken with Spicy Sauce (additional for 4paxs meal)
🥤Sour Plum/Lime Juice
🍮Ice Jelly (complimentary)

Love the spread and taste, definitely worth the price! All tasted delicious and it reminiscent me of my time in Chong Qing & Cheng Du. They also do cater for big event like business meetings, corporate function, family gathering etc. hence you’re thinking for a place to dine in. Do check it out!

Can’t believe the Sichuan a la carte buffet is only $29.90! Because if you look at the dishes they come in extremely big sizes 😱

Came here with my bf and we were honestly impressed. A la Carte buffet means we didn’t have to get out of our seat everything is ordered at your table. And it’s freshly made- every dish came piping hot. There are more than 25 dishes to choose from and we had a hard time choosing because we wanted to try all they all of them— there are chicken, beef, pork, seafood, veg, noodles, dessert.

My favourites were La zi ji (spicy fried chicken) – super crispy and really spicy, but so addictive. I kept going back for more even though my mouth was on fire 😂 and Prawn with vermicelli – they actually cook this in front of you! Great for me to film for the ’gram, and also it also looks as tasty as it looks. We ate so much (this was lunch) that we didn’t eat dinner that day! He he he

Location is also super convenient you can go by MRT to Chinatown station, its at Chinatown Point shopping mall. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area and want something filling without spending too much!

[CHINATOWN, SINGAPORE] @shuyanrestaurant is conveniently located on level 1 of Chinatown Point, offering Chinese dishes with an ala carte buffet concept!

At $29.90 per adult, you get to order a variety of meat, seafood and carbs. Our favourite had to be the Garlic Vermicelli Prawn Balls with its strong garlic umami and snappy fresh prawns! Dishes like their Fried Chicken with Dried Chilli aka La Zi Ji were great as well, with the chicken pieces being slightly bigger and still really crunchy!

However, admittedly there were some dishes that were misses as well, like the Fried Rice with Eggs which could have been more flavourful.

Overall, the experience is still decent and may be worth it with a large group of big eaters. The dishes served are of full sizes so a larger group will mean that you can try more dishes!

Thank you @burpple for the invite and @shuyanrestaurant for the food!

Vv conveniently located inside chinatown point (chinatown mrt) so can try it if u r in the area!!

Would you try this all-you-can-eat Sichuan buffet?

For bold, punchy Sichuan flavours, Shu Yan’s all you can eat à la carte buffet is a strong option. At $29.90++ per adult, it offers good variety and solid flavour at a decent price point.

Start with the Chili Shrimp Balls and Garlic Vermicelli Prawn Balls. Both arrive hot and garlicky, with juicy shrimp. The Boiled Fish Fillet in Chili Oil is a standout. Spicy, numbing, and full of aroma. The Stewed Fish Fillet with Pickled Vegetables adds a satisfying tang to the meal.

Meat dishes like Sichuan Boiled Beef and Twice Cooked Pork are loaded with heat and savoury depth. The Fried Chicken with Dried Chili brings crunch and spice. Kung Po Chicken and Lemongrass Chicken offer familiar flavours with a twist.

Mapo Tofu, Fried French Beans, and Shredded Cabbage with Pork bring that home-style comfort. Fried Rice with Egg and Fried Noodles are reliable fillers between bites of spice.

Finish with chilled Ice Jelly or Glutinous Rice Cake with Brown Sugar for a sweet end.

Buffet is limited to 120 minutes, with a minimum of 2 diners per table. Portions are generous, and dishes arrive fast, making this a satisfying option for those who enjoy Sichuan cuisine.

Apparently one of the more popular Bak Kut Teh establishments in Singapore and thus there were quite a few tourists in the queue. Ambience was bright and comfortable, suitable for a casual dinner in town.

We got the Superior Spare Ribs Soup ($11.80), with Ngoh Hiang ($10.80) and Braised Tau Kee ($4.80) as sides, and Rice ($1.50) and Mee Sua ($4.80) as carbs. Main complaint is that the spare ribs were too tough, I expect fall-off-the-bone tender for a good bak kut teh. Broth was good though - this version is leans more towards the garlicky and peppery side (as compared to the Malaysian sweet-savoury herbal version) and I would recommend to make full use of the free refills so that the broth is kept piping hot. Ngoh Hiang was bad, with the fillings very obviously made from meat paste instead of the traditional minced meat, but I did appreciate the addition of water chestnuts and coriander. Tau Kee was alright, as is the Mee Sua (though it was served room temperature).

Fish v tender. More worth it than Tai**. Free 6pc salted egg chicken wing ($18.80) Free flow hot tea & jelly w toppings (fruits/hawflake/raisins/barley/mochi)

JUwei, located at SAFRA@29 Carpenter Street, is a retro Nanyang-inspired coffee shop that celebrates the golden era of sight and sound. While classics like Kaya Toast, KL Hokkien Mee, and Penang Char Kuey Teow are staples, JUwei elevates the experience with their crispy toast and the option to add a sunny-side-up to their fried kuey teow—a must-try addition.

Beyond the usual fare, JUwei offers unique comfort food like Pork Trotter Bee Hoon, a nostalgic dish reminiscent of special occasions with grandma’s cooking. The “One Tray Meal” features nasi lemak rice with crispy pork knuckle, while the Roasted Pork Curry Cheong Fun comes in a hearty portion. Don’t miss the XO Sauce Fried Carrot Cake, packed with big chunks of flavor.

For snacks, try the Mini Youtiao, inspired by Thailand’s pa thong ko, served with kaya dip. Wash it all down with their signature Hor Ka Sai, a MILO-coffee blend said to give the strength of a tiger. JUwei’s creative menu makes it a must-visit spot for modern Nanyang cuisine lovers.

Love authentic Chinese eats? Head over to Bei Jiang Restaurant for a taste of Xinjiang cuisine and enjoy a sweet deal—15% OFF your food bill with #BurppleBeyond! Whether you’re new to the flavours of Xinjiang or already a fan, you’re in for a real treat.

Must-try? Their grilled lamb, a fan favourite known for its incredible tenderness. If lamb isn’t your thing, dive into the Signature Bei Jiang Chicken—a hearty, flavour-packed dish brimming with chicken, potatoes, and a rich mix of spices that’ll have your taste buds dancing!

Order typical Xinjiang dish such as 手抓肉 Boiled Lamb and signature dish such as this interesting Beijiang Chicken.

羊肉可口,柔软,吃得出是羊肉,幸好没有那种强烈的羊膳味。美中不足是稍微咸了点!!
