If there’s one dish that needs no introduction, it’s lok lok. It’s a fairly simple snack but when done right, it can really blow your mind.
One place that does it really well is Fei Zhu Lok Lok and they’ve recently opened their newest outlet with an in-house arcade, lala hotpot and so much more!
You might be familiar with them from their previous two outlets in Toh Guan and Ang Mo Kio. Fei Zhu Lok Lok’s newest (and biggest) outlet is located in Kallang Wave Mall — it’s also their first outlet located inside a mall too.
The space is decked with bright LED lights and neon signs, so you definitely won’t be able to miss it.
What really took me by surprise was the massive arcade area, complete with games, claw machines and more! There’s even a dedicated machine for you to get your game tokens — super impressive.
Food-wise, Fei Zhu Lok Lok offers pretty much the same options as their other outlet. Over on the lok lok front of things, they offer a wide variety of ingredients to choose from like the quintessential bacon and enoki rolls, broccoli, luncheon meat and smoked duck amongst others.
They also have rather interesting ingredients like bak kwa and pandan mantou. Prices-wise, they’ve also kept the S$1 per stick price tag for most of the ingredients. Other slightly more premium ingredients cost between S$2 and S$3.
In true lok lok fashion, the skewers are deep fried to a crisp before being generously coated in a house-made seasoning.
While waiting for your food to be ready, you can head over to the sauce station to get your fill of sauces like Thai Red Chilli, Cheese, Spicy Mayo and more. Fei Zhu Lok Lok also has a DIY sauce station a la hotpot style where you can build your own dipping sauce.
My favourite was the bacon and enoki skewers (a classic that can do no wrong) which had an oh so satisfying crisp and super addictive. I loved how the seasoning elevated the smoky flavours of the bacon.
If you love a good spice, pair it with the Thai green chilli for an extra spicy and garlicky kick.
The only time I actually eat broccoli is when it is cooked lok lok style, otherwise I tend to stay very far away from those little green trees. Interestingly, the broccoli here was cooked to a crisp.
I loved that the seasoning (and the dipping sauce) helped to mask the grassy broccoli taste. It was so addictive, I was tempted to get more — and that’s coming from someone who dislikes broccoli.
Other ingredients worth trying include the bak kwa skewer, smoked duck, and potato slices.
Apart from lok lok, Fei Zhu Lok Lok also offers the viral lala hotpot (S$25.90). The pot comes chock full of clams and you can add on other ingredients too like beef slices, prawns, pork dumplings, scallops and fresh veggies.
You can further customise your pot by adding in your own sauces to pour into it. Head over to the DIY sauce section, where you’ll find condiments like sesame oil, chilli, garlic and even more Shaoxing wine.
The soup was really comforting — although the flavours and how robust the soup is would largely depend on the ingredients you throw into the pot. It is also important to note that Fei Zhu only uses fresh clams for their hotpot and it is only available on Tuesdays to Sundays.
To make your meal even more filling, they also have rice bowls (S$6.90) with toppings like seafood, smoked duck, beef and more. Each bowl also comes with a runny onsen egg — consider me sold!
As an avid lok lok fan, I have to say that Fei Zhu lok lok really impressed me. Although, it is worth mentioning that lok lok is one of those foods that won’t blow your mind, but it does hit all the right spots, especially if you’re looking for a hearty supper spot.
Bonus points for being conveniently located within a shopping mall and just walking distance from Stadium MRT! I’ll definitely be back, and I’ll be bringing more friends with me.
