Lao Huo Tang Canto Signature 4pax Set Review - A Feast!

Hello! Today, I will be reviewing a very famous restaurant in Singapore and it is none other than Lao Huo Tang Canto. For those who don't know Lao Huo Tang, it is basically a restaurant that serves traditional Chinese soups that are gentle tonics made from fresh vegetables, lean meat or pork ribs and flavoured only by natural ingredients. What does this means? It means that the soup is low in far, calorie and sodium! 

Without further ado, lets dive into my experience with Lao Huo Tang! 

Just by looking at the overall look of the dishes presented, it feels like a spread of dishes perfect for a whole family to sit down and indulge in it! Let's start with the very first dish !!!

1. Beauty Collagen Soup 

Did you know that Beauty Collagen Soup symbolizes 'Beauty & Confidence'? It is a super common dish in Japan and widely common now in Singapore! This Beauty Collagen Soup from Lao Huo Tang Canto is served in a gelatinous form and it contains several Chinese herbs such as red dates and wolfberries. Expect a huge drumstick in the soup, the drumstick meat is super tender and has a sweet taste from the Beauty Collagen Soup, super soothing to your throat! 

Rating 5/5

2. Apple Snow Pear Soup

This soup is my personal favourite, it has a hint of sweet taste from the apple and snow pear but it isn't too overwhelming. The main health benefits of this soup is known to be nourishing for your lungs and promote blood health! Just imagine drinking this on a rainy day... I would say this soup is suitable for all ages! Once you try it, you won't want to stop!

3. Crispy Whitebait W/ Salt & Pepper 

'

This Crispy Whitebait has a golden-brown look on the exterior and when you bite it, you can feel the crunchiness . There is also a right amount of Salt & Pepper used, which is not too salty for your taste bud! This is a perfect appetizer or even compatible with other dishes during a meal! It is not extremely oily so do not worry!

Rating 5/5

4. Japanese Cucumber w/ Garlic Chilli Vinaigrette 

For Cucumber lovers, you are gonna love this, the crisp cucumber is topped with Garlic Chilli Vinaigrette and the cucumber is well coated with the additional toppings! Good to consume with rice! 

Rating 4/5

5. Handmade Crispy Tofu w/ Minced Meat

I am sure this is the ideal fritter for those of you who enjoy pan-fried crispy tofu and this, includes myself as I am a huge lover of Handmade Crispy Tofu w/ Minced Meat and this did not disappoint at all. I would say this is a warm and hearty dish that you should really not miss out on! '

Rating 5/5 

6. HK Style Kailan

Usually Kailan has this STRONG bitter aftertaste but I didn't felt it at all, instead, it was firm and has delicate leaves which leaves a pleasant taste after each bite. Also, the stem isn't too hard and it is juicy which is a plus point! 

Rating 5/5  

7. Sliced Fish w/ Spring Onion and Ginger

The Spring Onion and Ginger adds a new flavour to the fish and not to mention, the fish meat is super delicate and soft, I could tell that the fish used was super fresh and it gives off a very aromatic smell even from a far! If you love fish, you will definitely fall in love with this dish!

Rating 5/5 

8. General's Tso Chicken 

I am sure many of you are familiar with this dish, it is relatively a staple dish in the Chinese Cuisine ! As the name suggest, it has a mix of sweet and sour taste together with the different bell peppers, spring onion and onion used, it brings out the aromatic smell of this dish and enhance the overall appearance of this dish. This is highly addictive so eat at your own risk! 

9. Pumpkin Rice 

Personally, the Pumpkin Rice taste like a balance of savoury and sweet! I really love the pumpkin as it is quite soft, it literally melts in your mouth the moment you put it in and the cabbage adds on to the sweetness of the rice! 

Other than Pumpkin Rice, you can choose either White Rice or Brown Rice. Since this has 4 bowls of rice, simply mix-and-match to have more variety!! I would say the Pumpkin Rice is a must-try! 

Rating 5/5

Overall, I genuinely enjoyed my experience with Lao Huo Tang Canto as their dishes did not disappoint at all and all of their dishes have a homely-feels.  They have 2 Pax, 4 Pax and 10 Pax so hurry and have a mini family gathering and order from Lao Huo Tang Canto now! I am sure you will enjoy it! 

Till then, take care and stay safe!
