Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Kimly Zi Char at Northshore has seen a significant turnaround in recent months, with multiple diners noting a marked improvement in food quality attributed to a new head chef.

While past reviews highlighted issues like burnt dishes and small portions, recent experiences praise dishes like the Salted Egg Prawn Ball and Butter Sotong.

The $55 set menu, including six white rice, is also noted as a good value option, with the salted chicken being a hit with families.

However, consistency might still be a concern, as older reviews mention low standards and poor execution, such as mostly batter in cereal sotong.

We'd recommend focusing on the dishes that have received recent positive mentions.

The price point is generally inexpensive, with specific dishes like French Beans at $8, which some found to be a small portion.

Best for those in the Punggol area looking for a casual zi char meal, especially since the recent improvements.
