Yan Huo Chinese Restaurant (烟伙餐馆) offers a modern yet homely dining experience built around the warmth of Chinese culinary traditions. The restaurant’s name, which translates to “flame of flavour,” reflects its commitment to wok hei-driven dishes and robust regional influences. The interiors combine modern Chinese aesthetics with a cosy, family-friendly atmosphere, ideal for gatherings or casual dinners. Service is attentive without being intrusive, and portions are generous, offering good value for money. A warm touch of modern Chinese and vintage charm to celebrate the ‘Fireworks’ of life!
Cherry Tomatoes | Tangerine 4.2/5
The Cherry Tomatoes ($16), marinated with tangerine, burst with sweet and tangy flavours that are refreshing and appetising. It’s a light, palate-awakening starter that perfectly whets the appetite for the meal ahead.
Dry Pot Cabbage with Chinese Bacon | Dried Chilli 4.2/5
The Dry Pot Cabbage with Chinese Bacon and Dried Chilli ($20) was well executed. The cabbage retained its crunch and natural sweetness, while the Chinese bacon added a savoury depth. The dried chilli brought just the right amount of heat to complete this aromatic and flavourful stir-fry.
Mapo Tofu | Iberico Pork, A4 Wagyu 4.5/5
The Mapo Tofu ($28) is easily one of the best I’ve had. The silky tofu bathed in a rich, spicy, and umami-laden sauce is deeply satisfying. The use of premium minced Iberico pork and A4 wagyu elevates the dish with indulgent layers of flavour and texture. It’s a definite rice killer that will have you reaching for an extra bowl.
Double Boiled Grouper Pot 4.5/5
The Double Boiled Grouper Pot ($48/$68) immediately caught my eye. Thick, firm slices of grouper are poached to perfection and paired with plump clams, firm tofu, and cabbage. The highlight, however, is the pumpkin broth — sweet, rich, and full of depth, providing comfort and nourishment in every spoonful.
Pineapple La Zi Chicken | Cashew Nuts 4.2/5
The Pineapple La Zi Chicken ($28) features boneless chicken chunks deep-fried to a crisp golden exterior while remaining juicy inside. The addition of cashew nuts adds crunch, and the pineapple pieces balance the fiery chillies with refreshing sweetness. It is a playful and well-balanced rendition of the classic spicy chicken dish.
Not to be missed is their value-for-money lunch set, available as a 2-Course ($38) or 3-Course ($58) option, perfect for those who want to enjoy Yan Huo’s refined flavours in a more accessible format.
Note: This is an invted tasting.
