Last updated 21 Jul 2026
Our take: NEW TASTE 新食代 at Jalan Kayu is primarily known for its spicy grilled fish, with many reviewers highlighting its freshness and balanced flavour.
The spiciness level is generally well-received, though some found it less intense than preferred.
The French beans and pork belly skewers also come recommended as strong accompaniments.
We note that prices are considered reasonable, especially for the quality offered, with the grilled fish priced under $14 on weekdays before 7pm, and around $28 on weekends for larger options.
However, there are significant concerns regarding service, particularly for takeaway orders during busy periods.
One account details over an hour's wait despite being quoted 30-40 minutes, with staff reportedly prioritising dine-in customers.
This suggests potential operational inconsistencies during peak times.
We'd recommend dining in during off-peak hours, specifically weekdays before 7pm, to avoid potential long waits and to take advantage of better pricing.

What customers say
NEW TASTE 新食代 @ Jalan Kayu is generally praised for its fresh and flavourful grilled fish, with many highlighting the balanced spiciness and delicious soup, along with tasty skewers and well-prepared side dishes like French beans.
While some find the spiciness level perfect, others desire more heat.
A significant negative point is the inconsistent and poor service for takeaway orders, with long waits and perceived prioritization of dine-in customers, leading to frustration and questioning of value.

Weekdays before 7pm the grilled fish less than$14! Non spicy flavor is gd, the mala as always is great. Weekends $28 can order the tofu mala.
We visited on a weekend and found the experience to be underwhelming. Surprisingly, the skewers were lost its heat when served, which was a disappointing start. Both the Suan Cai Yu and the stir-fried…
