\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Taking over Spice World Hot Pot<\/a> at Clarke Quay<\/strong> (the hotpot restaurant with the infamous Barbie doll in wagyu meat dress), Yum Sing!<\/strong> is a multi-concept dining and entertainment venue by the Putien Group <\/a>including<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-a modern casual dining concept that focuses on Singapore\u2019s culinary heritage,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-a platform where local chefs and creatives can collaborate,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-a retail boutique that showcases local food brands,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-an entertainment centre with local acts such as getai and stand-up comedy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Coffee ribs ($10), salted egg fish skin ($8)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The food menu at Yum Sing! is mainly divided into sharing or single portions. For sharing, there is a variety of local fare commonly found in cze char places. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The crunchy salted egg fish skin<\/strong> ($8) is freshly prepared daily and only gets bathed in the creamy, savoury salted egg yolk sauce a la minute. Addictive!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The coffee pork ribs<\/strong> ($10) are one of the better ones I have tasted. The tender ribs are evenly coated with the sticky coffee sauce and have a glistening caramelised texture. The bitterness of the coffee complements with the sweet sticky sauce and cuts through the strong meaty flavour of the pork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Sambal sotong ($12)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The oyster omelette<\/strong> ($12) comes with plump oysters but it would have been better if the tapioca batter is crispier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The crunchy salted egg prawns<\/strong> ($12) are evenly coated with the umami salted egg sauce so no complaints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sauce that comes with the sambal sotong <\/strong>($12) reminds me of the chilli crab sauce,slightly spicy and sweet. It goes well with rice but sambal shouldn\u2019t taste like chilli crab sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Nasi lemak ($10), Hainanese chicken rice ($10)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

For individual portions, they present several local favourites such as Hainanese chicken rice<\/strong>, nasi lemak<\/strong> and prawn noodle soup<\/strong> (each priced at $10++).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The chickens used in Hainanese chicken rice<\/strong> are free from antibiotic residue and chemical growth promoters. They are free-range and come from France. Good for health, perhaps, but not environmentally friendly. The meat is soft and tender but the rice is too soft and salty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The nasi lemak <\/strong>comes with a sunny side up with a gorgeous yolk, fried ikan bilis, sambal (not spicy), and fried chicken. Thankfully, the rice is coconutty and has a nice texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Hae mee tng ($10), laksa ($10)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

For a small bowl, the prawn noodle soup <\/strong>has quite a lot of liao<\/em>. The crunchy lard bits, fatty pork belly slices, fresh prawns, fish cake; all lovingly intertwined with perfectly cooked yellow and rice noodles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Moonlight fried hor fun ($10)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

There are few pieces of beef in the moonlight fried beef hor fun<\/strong> but the fried rice noodles are springy with wok hei<\/em>. I recommend getting the prawn noodle soup and moonlight dried beef hor fun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Salted egg yolk crab<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Another dish I recommend is the salted egg crab<\/strong>. The contrast of the savoury and spicy salted egg sauce complements the firm and sweet-tasting crab meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Chendol ($6), cheng tng ($6)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The desserts, chendol <\/strong>($6) and cheng tng<\/strong> (hot\/cold, $6), are decent but nothing memorable. For the chendol, the gula melaka is not fragrant enough and the coconut milk isn\u2019t thick enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For cocktails, the Yum sling<\/strong> ($18++) consists gin, fresh coconut, pineapple and orange juice, orange peel and old ginger. At first sip, it packs a punch and I find it to be an improved version of the famous one at Long Bar. The Kopi-O Gao<\/strong> ($20++), which is made from Kopi-O liqueur, has an intense coffee aroma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The food at Yum Sing! is above average and worth of a visit with its Instagrammable whimsical decor.<\/p>\n\n\n
