Manchurian Lamb Hotpot 满族全羊铺

I recently watched a YouTube video where the guy was having roasted whole lamb (烤全羊) in Xinjiang. That got me craving for roasted whole lamb but can I find that in Singapore? I did a Google search and the only restaurant that serves roasted whole lamb (烤全羊) in Singapore is Manchurian Lamb Hotpot in Chinatown.

I have always wanted to try 烤全羊 so I am really excited to try it at Manchurian Lamb Hotpot.

Decor

Manchurian Lamb Hotpot is one of the restaurants along the covered walkway that used to be Chinatown Food Street.

The decor inside has a strong Manchurian vibe with distinctively bright-red tables and chairs. There is a picture of a beautiful Manchurian noblewomen at the back of the restaurant.

The Food

I really wanted to try their Roasted Whole Lamb but it costs a whopping S$668 and you need to reserve 3 days in advance, so I ended up having Manchurian hotpot instead.

You won’t find the usual pork bone, tomato or tom yum soup bases here. The soup bases here are more exotic, such as Beijing Lamb Spine Hotpot 京城羊蝎子 [S$49.80] and Braised Lamb Hotpot 红焖羊肉锅 [S$49.80].

I got the lighter Fish and Lamb Fresh Soup Pot 鱼羊鲜汤锅 [S$49.80] which comes with a complimentary portion of Shrimp Paste 虾滑 and Mutton Meat Ball 羊肉丸子.

Manchurian Lamb Hotpot - Sesame Sauce

Sauces are charged at S$2.50 for unlimited refills. There are only 3 sauces to choose from - Sesame Sauce, Garlic Sesame Oil and Spicy Sauce.

I also ordered a Vegetable Platter 蔬菜拼盘 [S$13.80], U.S Beef Rolls 美国肥牛卷 [S$16.90], Classic Mutton Rolls传统羊肉卷 [Small S$14.40, Large S$28.80] as well as Frozen Tofu 冻豆腐 [S$5].

Manchurian Lamb Hotpot - BBQ

There are also many BBQ options available, such as BBQ Lamb Stick 烤羊肉串 [S$1.80/stick] and BBQ Lamb Tendon Skin 烤羊筋皮 [S$3.80].

Manchurian Lamb Hotpot - Plum Juice

Drink-wise, you should really try this traditional Plum Juice 自制老铺酸梅汤 [S$9.80 per jar] which helps to balance the oiliness from the mutton dishes and hotpot.

Conclusion

Unlike buffet steamboats, Manchurian Lamb Hotpot is much pricier but you get the best quality one-of-a-kind Old Beijing style hotpot you can’t find in Singapore.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
