Ah Hoi’s Kitchen is a local zi char specialty restaurant at Hotel Jen Tanglin by Shangri-La that has reopened for dine-in since September. Serving local favorites since 1996, guests can look forward to having these dishes in an alfresco setting under the stars.

Prepared with quality ingredients, the highlight is their Sri Lankan Chilli Crab which the meaty crustaceans are coated in a tantalizing sauce made with a sambal that has been laboriously prepared for hours. The Salted Egg Baby Lobster is one of their best sellers with the succulent meat and flavorful sauce being an absolute delight. Chef Tiger’s Seabass with Thai Spicy Sauce stands out for me as the crunchyness of the fried fish and the appetizing Thai sauce go perfectly together.

We also had the Stir Fried Eggplant with Crispy Fish Skin which is a  delectable combination, Claypot Mee Tai Pak with Seafood, Pineapple Fried Rice with Seafood and Chicken Floss and my personal favorite is the Crispy Fried Noodles with Prawns. Drinks wise, I enjoyed the Dancing Lychee which is refreshing and soothing.
As part of its reopening, the restaurant is also introducing an à la carte buffet for dinner that will feature their best-selling dishes.
