Best lok lok in Singapore
Road trips to and around Malaysia are always punctuated by lok lok breaks. I remember far too much time spent outside mobile trucks, putting away skewer after skewer, all made more delicious by how cheap it was. Thankfully, you can get the very same on home ground with our guide to the best lok lok places in Singapore.
1. Yi Zi Wei
Yi Zi Wei is famed for having one of the most value-for-money six-in-1 buffet concepts around. Choose from mala xiang guo, hotpot, mala tang, army stew, barbecue, and of course, lok lok. Prices start from just $23.90++ per adult for their lunch buffet from Mondays to Thursdays, and $33.90++ for dinner and Weekends. For the price and variety, you do get a lot of bang for your buck.
