Visited on 27 Aug and 3 Sep 2016 (Sat) during dinner time. 

“Lai Huat” was founded in 1951 by Lim Song Lai who created the original Singapore-styled Sambal Fish, crispy deep-fried pomfret topped generously with home-made sambal belachan of perfect texture, aroma and flavours, this award-winning Lai Huat Sambal Fish has been the restaurant’s signature dish for over 60 years.

3rd generation "Patrick Lim" has inherited the recipe from his grandfather. He has grown the business from a coffee shop to today's casual dining restaurant. Lai Huat Signatures is now a 120-seater restaurant, serving authentic Singaporean zi char dishes at affordable prices!








Dried Scallop with Fish Maw & Crabmeat Potage 
(S) $18++, (M) $35++, (L) at $48++
My Order in the photo is (M) (For around 6 bowls)
  
 This is their signature soup that you must order when you're there. It was full of generous ingredients, thick, very flavourful and comforting soup! 


Silky Egg Seafood Hor Fun
(S) $7++ (L) $16++
My Order in the photo is (S) 
 I really like their hor fun with a charred taste and silky egg gravy. Trust me, they really have a simple, yet very delicious hor fun!



King's Pork Rib
(S) $12++ (L) $18++
My Order in the photo is (S) 
This is another dish that surprised us. The meat was really very tender! The sweet and sour sauce used was also great, not too sweet and not too sour. Must order!



Coffee Ribs with Almond Flakes
(S) $15++ (L) $30++
My Order in the photo is (S) 
If you're a coffee-lover, this will be a great dish. The coffee sauce was quite bitter and with a strong coffee taste but very very aromatic.. The meat was also quite tender. We love this dish!


Crab Meat Tofu with Egg White
(S) $14++ (L) $26++
My Order in the photo is (S) 
The tofu was silky with nice egg white gravy. A simple and not bad dish.

Full Menu









Overall Impression: We did not try their signature sambal fish as we're not a spicy lover. But so far all the dishes that we ordered did not disappoint us. You can be rest assured of the food quality here. They can turn a simple and common dish into a fantastic dish. Service was ok too! If you like quality zi char food in a comfy air-conditioned restaurant at affordable prices, this is the place for you and your family!
