These Steamboat Spots In S’pore Confirm Will Make You Steaaammm
Hai Di Lao is arguably the most popular steamboat spot in Singapore. They’ve been drawing crowds with their insanely good tomato broths and noodle-bending staff.
However, while Hai Di Lao is great, I refuse to wait over an hour just for a table. Especially when I’m hungry. Here’s a list of great alternatives to satisfy that steamboat craving.
1. JPOT
JPOT only offers individual hotpots, which is great because I’m picky when it comes to the ingredients that goes into my hotpot.
They offer a wide variety of ingredients and 9 different soup bases. My personal favourites are the Tom Yum Soup and the JPOT Superior Broth.
[caption id="attachment_34036" align="aligncenter" width="720"]
Image Credit: JPOT[/caption]
The other unique soup bases include the Laksa, Chilli Crab Soup, Bak Kut Teh Soup, Fish Head Soup and Porridge. Yes, that’s right. You can choose to cook your ingredients in a pot of porridge.
[caption id="attachment_34035" align="aligncenter" width="1080"]
Image Credit: JPOT[/caption]
You have to order their Wagyu Ribeye, Handmade Jumbo Pork Ball, and their Handmade Fish Balls. The marbling on the Wagyu Ribeye is perfect and is so tender it barely holds its form on my chopsticks.
The Handmade Fish Balls come in a platter of 6 and are different from the conventional fishballs. The fishballs are made fresh and you can actually taste the fish instead of just a generic fish paste. One platter is never enough.
You can view their complete menu here.
That’s not all, with 16 sauces and condiments available, you can create your own dips for your hotpot experience.
JPOT is the place to go if you’re looking for a genuinely good and fuss-free steamboat meal.

2. Shi Li Fang
Shi Li Fang is one of the few affordable steamboat places in Singapore.
[caption id="attachment_34038" align="aligncenter" width="1080"]
Image Credit: @agacialim[/caption]
They have a good variety of broths available. Choose from their Tonic Chicken Soup, Specialty Mala Soup, Beauty Chicken Collagen Soup, Nourishing Fish Soup, Ravishing Tomato Soup, and Tasty Mushroom Soup.
Their Specialty Mala Soup is actually milder and drinkable, unlike Hai Di Lao’s intense Mala broth.
Be sure to order their Japanese Kurobuta Pork, Japanese Wagyu Beef, and their Fish Roe ‘Glue’. The quality of the meat is surprisingly decent and the Fish Roe ‘Glue’ is a paste that has been incorporated generously with Fish Roe.

3. Beauty In The Pot

The Beauty Collagen Broth is essentially Shark’s Cartilage Soup while the Spicy Nourishing Soup is a Pork Bone Soup with 3 levels of spiciness available.

Find, Reserve, And Go To Your Favourite Restaurant With Just Google Maps
Making reservations at restaurants is one of the things you learn to do as you grow into an adult but nobody enjoys long interactions with strangers.
Because we’re all awkward turtles, we’ve got some good news to share.
Today, Google announced that they’ve partnered with Chope, HungryGoWhere, and Quandoo to launch the new “Reserve with Google” feature.
That’s right, Singaporean users are now able to make reservations at their favourite restaurants directly on Google Maps and Search.

Because making a reservation has always been a bit of a hassle, Google is making that process more seamless.
Now you can just Google search for a restaurant, view its real-time availability, and make a reservation immediately by clicking on the “Find a table” button.
How To Make A Restaurant Reservation With Google
- Open Google Maps and search for a restaurant or tap on a restaurant you see on the map.
- Tap on the name of the restaurant for more information. If the restaurant uses OpenTable, you should see a “Find a table” button along with the available time slots.
- If you’re looking for a time slot that’s not listed, you can update the number of people you’re reserving for, and the specific time slot.
- You should be redirected to a confirmation page for your reservation once everything is done.
- A confirmation email from OpenTable will be sent to you shortly after confirmation.
Changing or cancelling reservations are also easy. Go to the confirmation email sent to you by OpenTable and just tap on Change or Cancel.
Also, if your Gmail is registered with OpenTable, you’ll get Dining Rewards points for your reservation.
Say goodbye to multiple redirections to different websites and frustratingly long waiting times for reservation calls!
