Lao Huo Tang 老火汤

We find the soups to be a highlight, often described as wholesome, well-boiled, and not overly salty, with a generous one-time refill policy.

The lotus root peanut soup is a frequently praised option.

While the soups are hearty and meaty, they might be thicker and less smooth than typical hawker-style broths, appealing more to those seeking a filling, comforting meal.

The pumpkin rice also receives consistent praise for its flavour and dried shrimp aroma, even from those who typically dislike pumpkin.

However, we note some inconsistencies in the temperature of other dishes, with some arriving only lightly warm.

While flavours are generally comforting, they can be average.

The set lunch, for example, can total around $89.81 after GST and service charge for three teas and a set.

We recommend visiting before the lunch rush, as tables are plentiful early on.

Overall, it's a reliable spot for a comforting soup-centric meal, but don't expect every side dish to be piping hot or exceptional.

Best for a quiet, comforting meal, especially if you're craving soup.
