Chengdu Bowl’s flagship outlet has arrived at Changi Airport Terminal 3! It’s Singapore’s first-ever Sichuanese speakeasy restaurant, offering flavours that transport you directly to Chengdu without boarding a plane.
Hidden behind a door disguised as a vending machine, Chengdu Bowl’s fifth outlet is by far its most elaborate one. Decorated with vivid colours, greenery, photographs of the streets and mahjong and panda-themed plushies, every corner can be an aesthetic photo spot.
As part of the Grand Opening Promotion from 16 to 25 May, diners can enjoy a discount of up to 50% per meal depending on group size. 2 diners get 20% off, 3 get 30%, 4 get 40% and groups of 5 or more get a 50% discount.
Those who are more daring can try the Mahjong Lucky Draw and attempt to get 1 to 3 tiles from the “Dot” suit out of 3 tiles. You can get a complimentary drink or even a free dish at Chengdu Bowl Changi, depending on the number you draw.
Many associate Sichuanese cuisine with anything mala (numbing spice) flavoured, but it’s more than just that. Here, you’ll be able to experience both spicy and non-spicy authentic Sichuan food seasoned with a wide variety of spices.
Mom’s Homemade Rice Pot (S$32.80) is one fan favourite that showcases the milder and more comforting flavours of Chengdu. It’s a gravy rice dish that is simmered in a stone crockpot with prawns, abalone, vegetables and flavourful broth that we couldn’t get enough of.
The Sichuan Qiaojiao Spiced Beef Pot (S$28.80), another of Chengdu Bowl Changi Airport’s non-spicy dishes, features a hearty soup full of meatballs, brisket, tendon, enoki mushrooms and bean sprouts.
The Prawn with Luffa in Golden Broth (S$26.80) and Sizzling Mulan Beef on Hotplate (S$23.80) are some other dishes that the restaurant also highly recommends.
If you’d like a challenge, crank up the heat with the Classic Spicy Chilli Chicken with Cheesy Rice Cakes (S$22.80). This one had my mala-loving companion and me panting from the numbing spice that gradually kicked in. The fact that we were trying the already toned-down version of the dish and were still struggling was insane!
Chengdu Bowl at Changi’s Classic Spicy Assorted Skewers in Red Chilli Oil (S$14.80) may be spicy, but they’re nowhere as powerful as the Chilli Chicken. These potato, prawn, meat and wood ear fungus skewers provide just enough heat for the average spice lover without singeing their tastebuds.
For a light yet flavourful pairing dish, pick the Sweet & Sour Poached Cabbage (S$13.80), which has a rich smoky flavour. The Volcano Crispy Shredded Potatoes with Secret Seasoning (S$12.80) are also rather addictive and a popular option among diners.
Chengdu Bowl Changi is a great gathering spot for a wholesome meal with the whole family, with its wide range of sharing dishes. Kids under 12 receive a complimentary kids’ meal with every paying adult so it’s a great deal for families!
Mark your calendars for 16 May, and head down to experience a taste of Chengdu in our very own Changi Airport T3 before the promotions end on 25 May!
