Our take: Ba Wang Claypot in Hougang, specialising in traditional claypot dishes, appears to be facing significant challenges, particularly post-renovation.

While some long-time customers recall enjoying dishes like the sesame chicken, recent feedback points to a severe decline in food quality and customer service.

Multiple reports highlight issues with freshness, specifically citing 'stinky' and 'super small' grilled oysters, with staff allegedly dismissing concerns.

More alarmingly, there are documented instances of foreign objects, including maggots, found in dishes like the herbal chicken soup.

The alleged lack of accountability from staff and management when confronted with these issues is concerning.

Given the consistent and serious nature of these complaints, we would advise extreme caution.

What customers say

Public sentiment for Ba Wang Claypot is overwhelmingly negative, primarily due to severe food safety and quality concerns.

Customers reported finding maggots in herbal chicken soup and receiving unacceptably small, potentially spoiled grilled oysters.

Staff responses to these complaints were perceived as dismissive and unhelpful, leading loyal customers to reconsider future visits.

Tried the herbal chicken soup, while eating found some small maggots floating on the surface of the soup… will not be coming here anymore. Update: wasn’t compensated and ghosted by owner.
