Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Cheng Hoo Thian offers a deeply traditional Teochew dining experience, with many reviewers highlighting the nostalgic and authentic flavours.

We see consistent praise for dishes like the Liver Roll, Oyster Porridge, and especially the Braised Goose, which is noted for its rarity and quality.

The Orh Nee (yam paste) also receives high marks, with some calling it the best in Singapore.

Reviewers appreciate the attentive service, with staff often explaining dishes and accompanying sauces.

While the food quality is generally lauded, we note that prices are considered to be on the higher side.

Portions for some dishes are also described as relatively small, which can be a factor for larger groups or those expecting more generous servings.

Despite these points, the overall sentiment is that the experience justifies the cost for those seeking genuine Teochew cuisine.

We'd recommend this for a special occasion or when craving authentic, old-school Teochew flavours, particularly if you're keen to try dishes like the Braised Goose or their unique Orh Nee.

What customers say

Cheng Hoo Thian Teochew Restaurant is highly praised for its authentic, old-school Teochew cuisine, with many dishes evoking nostalgia for those who grew up with the food.

Patrons consistently highlight specific dishes like the liver roll, oyster porridge, braised goose (including a unique deep-fried version), oyster egg, and especially the yam paste (Orh Nee) as exceptional.

While some note the prices are on the higher side and portions can be small, the quality of ingredients, distinct sauces, and top-notch, friendly service, particularly from staff like the woman captain, are frequently commended.
