Claypot Chicken at VivoCity – We Tried the Tomato Salt Baked One

Sometimes you don’t follow the hype. You just follow your stomach and a bit of curiosity. That’s exactly how we ended up at Canton Claypot Cuisine in VivoCity , giving their claypot tomato salt baked chicken a go. This place used to go by Riverside Grilled Fish , but it has since reinvented itself with a bubbling claypot identity. The name alone—claypot tomato salt baked chicken—sounded dramatic enough to deserve a try. For $23.90, we were hoping for something satisfying, warm, and packed with flavour. What we got instead was a crash course in “how much tomato is too much tomato?” View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) Trying the Claypot Tomato Salt Baked Chicken at VivoCity The dish arrived sizzling, claypot doing what claypots do best—looking rustic and hearty.

The difference between the two was barely noticeable. Save a few bucks and stick with the 150g. Your wallet will thank you, and your stomach will be just as happy.

Known for its tender, hand-pulled pieces of dough, mee hoon kueh is a beloved dish among local food enthusiasts.
