南华昌鱼头炉 Nan Hwa Chong Fish Head Steamboat | Nan Hua Chang ( Ah Chew ) Fish Head Steamboat

They cook their soup over charcoal fire, which really makes a difference. We ordered the classic Red Grouper Fish Head Steamboat. The fish was very fresh and generously sized (make sure to pair it with their chili!). The soup absorbed all the flavors and tasted incredibly rich and umami — and you can get free soup refills. For sides, we ordered the Malay-style vegetables, Golden Tofu, and Fermented Red Bean Curd Pork Belly. The Golden Tofu is their signature dish — almost every table orders it. Crispy on the outside and served with Thai sauce 👍. The pork belly is also a safe choice: fragrant, crispy, not dry at all, and with a great balance of fat and lean meat. If you’re a fan of fish head steamboat, this place offers great value for money. The taste, price, and portion sizes are all on point. The dining area is spacious and comfortable (there’s air-conditioning upstairs). It can get a bit crowded during weekend peak hours, but there are plenty of seats so the waiting time isn’t too long.

Finally tried Nan Hwa Chong Fish Head Steamboat, a place with nearly a century of history — and it truly lives up to its reputation. We ordered the small grouper fish head steamboat, signature pork belly (Nam Yu pork), and the signature homemade tofu. The grouper was cut into generous chunks, very fresh and tender. The soup was the highlight — light, smooth, and naturally sweet from fish bones and vegetables, making it easy to drink till the last sip. Refilling the original broth was a big plus. The Nam Yu pork belly was fragrant without being greasy, nicely crispy on the outside and tender inside. The homemade tofu was another standout — crispy on the outside, soft and flavorful inside, and not oily at all. Located between Bugis and Lavender, the setting is simple and very local, but well-ventilated and comfortable even during lunch hours. You’ll see plenty of locals and families dining here, which says a lot. If you’re looking for an authentic Singapore-style fish head steamboat, this is definitely a place worth visiting.

First time trying Singapore-style charcoal grilled fish head, and it was seriously impressive. The fish was very fresh and the broth was rich and flavorful. We added glass noodles at the end, and they soaked up all the sauce perfectly — absolutely delicious. Such a satisfying dish and definitely something I’d love to have again.

A must-try fish head hot pot in Nanchang. The fish head is generous in size, with thick, tender meat and a rich, aromatic broth that’s especially comforting. Flavors are bold and well-balanced, perfect with rice. The place is simple but authentic, focusing on taste rather than decor. Great choice for fish lovers looking for local flavor.
