Welcome to Jurong West. Looking for Buffet places?

We started off with Braised Shark’s Fin with Fish Maw, which was limited to one serving per person. The soup was quite starchy and flavourful, with crunchy shark fin, giving off those classic wedding banquet vibes

Stir-fried ‘Ee-fu’ Noodles was another dish that brought back wedding banquet memories. Slurpy noodles with straw mushrooms in a savoury sauce—it was a heavy carb dish that will fill you up, no doubt.

After a long wait, we got the Steamed Red Tilapia with Minced Garlic. This dish was worth it! The fish was fresh, tender, and soft, yet firm enough to pick up with chopsticks. The clear soy sauce added a savoury kick, and the minced garlic on top jin tokong.

The highlight for me was the Braised Pork Trotter with Vinegar, which was actually the reason we chose this particular TungLok Seafood branch. The pork knuckles were big and fatty, braised in a sweet, savoury, tangy vinegar sauce with a nice hint of ginger. The knuckle was good, but could’ve been softer and gooier. The vinegary sauce was awesome, although I would’ve preferred it thicker and more sinful. Still, always a fan of a good vinegar pork trotter.

So, my friend jio-ed me for a buffet again, and of course, I steady lah. Even though deep down I was feeling lazy to go out, but for food, I will always make the effort. XD

We started off with Braised Shark’s Fin with Fish Maw, which was limited to one serving per person. The soup was quite starchy and flavourful, with crunchy shark fin, giving off those classic wedding banquet vibes. Then, I went straight for a plate of Salmon Sashimi like no tomorrow. To my surprise, the quality was solid—chilled, tender, and really fresh. After that, we moved on to more standard items like crispy fish skin with salted egg yolk, smoked duck, prawn paste chicken, and herbal prawns. Pretty average, but satisfying lah.

Next, we tried the dim sum selection: classics like har gao, siew mai, char siew buns, and others. Honestly, the dim sum was just okay. I’d recommend skipping it because it didn’t feel worth the stomach space—kind of subpar.

For desserts, we had Chilled Herbal Jelly with Honey, Chilled Lemongrass ‘Ai Yu’ Jelly, and Chilled Mango Cream with Pomelo and Sago. The herbal jelly was the best—sweet and cooling. The Ai Yu jelly had a soft lemongrass fragrance and was light and easy to eat. The Mango Cream was a bit watery, but surprisingly, the flavour was there even though the pomelo taste was quite muted.

Just a heads-up, you need a minimum of 2 pax to enjoy the buffet.

Generous portion! Bought it during the 1 for 1 takeaway promotion.

Tori katsu don (Original Price $ 12.85)
- Fried to perfection. The Chicken was juicy and tender.

Truffle karrage chicken chop don ( Original price $ 13.90)
- Pleasantly surprised by the truffle taste. Definitely worth the topup for that kick 👍🏻

However, the rice tasted like normal rice rather than japanese sushi rice. 😩

Love the siew yok here! The skin is perfectly baked and very flavourful!

The variety of the buffet was decent, although I wish they had more. Nonetheless, the salmon sashimi and drunken prawns, among other items, made the buffet quite worth it! Also loved their yummy mini egg tarts served warm which sadly ran out towards the end of the lunchtime buffet! The sweet and sour pork and congee were nice too(: As for desserts, my favorite was the sesame rice dumplings which were warm, chewy and sweet(: Wish I tried the jelly though - they ran out of it towards the end unfortunately

Hello again 😁

This is our favorite food ❤ I've been fed with hordes of crab since I was still in her tummy I guess 😝 First time trying Ginger and Spring Onion Crab ($68++), and we're very pleased with it (Chili Crab and Black Pepper also very delicious 😍). The ginger taste is not too strong but very fragrant. TungLok never fails to satisfy me with their incredibly plump and meaty crab. The flesh is sweet, nicely complemented with the sauce. So far, chili crab still has most of my love because nothing just beats mopping up all the goodness with fried mantous($0.80++ each) 😋

They charge for snack and towel so be sure to return them if you don't want the extra fees.

P.S. Can't eat this often because it's quite expensive and I have nobody to share the crab 😝 Anybody knows where to find good crabs at more affordable price? Anybody wants to eat crab with me? 😆
