Flaming Chicken Pot 雞煲火鍋 – New Hot Pot Spot in Yishun

Many of us have probably had Chicken Pot, but have you ever heard of Nose-to-Tail dining? Me neither. For the founders, Gabriel, Ronald and Desmond, it was love at first sight when they discovered this dish and concept. Bringing it all the way from Hong Kong, they invested a whole year to perfect the recipe before opening up Flaming Chicken Pot in Yishun!

As the concept suggests, every single part of the chicken is used in their dish to ensure nothing is wasted. The concept of zero-wastage is getting increasingly popular, and I was excited to see what they have to offer at Flaming Chicken Pot.

Their dish comes in two flavours — a Black Pot ($9.80++) and a White Pot (10.80++). You can get the single pot for yourself or the bigger pots for sharing! The Black version is stir-fried with an assortment of vegetables, and served as a dry-style claypot chicken. This pot has an exciting aspect to it — they flambé the pot with premium Moutai wine in front of you before serving! This is done to bring out the flavours, and definitely a fun sight to see. The thick peppery sauce was perfect with rice, and half my rice was gone before I knew it. For those who enjoy stronger flavours and spicy foods, this is the pot for you.

On the other hand, the White Pot is a collagen-rich broth that’s painstakingly simmered for at least eight hours. Loaded with chicken bones, secret ingredients, and more, the soup is really rich. With so many ingredients inside in the broth, the flavours can easily be thrown off balance. However, that was definitely not the case. All the flavours complemented one another, and everyone at the table kept reaching for more even after the meal, proving how delicious it was.

Once you’re done with the first round of eating, it’s time for round two! Top up the chicken pot with more broth to turn it into a hotpot, and pick your ingredients to go with it. There’s a good selection, ranging from fresh vegetables to handmade fishballs, available. Quality is a priority here and all the ingredients are delivered in the morning, every day, to maintain a high standard. One thing to note though, Flaming Chicken Pot only have around 50 servings a day so it’s recommended to visit earlier!

Throughout the meal at Flaming Chicken Pot, the quality of their ingredients really shone through. The chicken was nice and tender, and absorbed the flavours of the broth marvellously. The handmade fishballs came highly recommended and I definitely wasn’t disappointed with the choice! They were bouncy and had a satisfying bite.

I’m not going to lie. Before this visit, the last time I was in Yishun must’ve been years ago. I had no reason to venture there, and everyone seemed to treat it like the Bermuda Triangle anyway. With the addition of Flaming Chicken Pot, Yishun doesn’t seem so bad after all.
