Chinese cuisine is one of the most popular and widely dispersed cuisines in the world, known for its flavor diversity and range of ingredients used. If you’re looking for information or recommendations about Chinese restaurants, there are several ways I can assist you:
- Local Chinese Restaurants: If you’re seeking a restaurant near you, I could suggest looking up options via online directories such as Google Maps, Yelp, or TripAdvisor. These platforms often have customer reviews, ratings, and photos that can help you choose.
- Chinese Cuisine Types: There are several regional cuisines within Chinese food, including Cantonese, Sichuan, Shandong, and Jiangsu, each with its unique flavors and specialties. I can describe these different types to help you decide what might suit your taste.
- Menu Recommendations: If you’re new to Chinese cuisine or looking for dish recommendations, I can provide a list of popular dishes, such as Peking duck, dim sum, hot pot, Kung Pao chicken, and mapo tofu, along with their descriptions.
- Chinese Cooking at Home: If you’d rather cook at home, I can share some Chinese recipes or cooking techniques.
- Cultural and Dining Etiquette: If you’re dining at a traditional Chinese restaurant and want to know more about the customs and dining etiquette, I can provide information on that as well.

Spring Court, as it stands today, has become synonymous with the warmth of gatheringβbe it for family, friends, or business associatesβaround a shared meal.
This tradition has seen countless celebrations unfold within our walls, with wedding festivities particularly standing out.

Those moments of happiness and loud celebrations inspired my grandfather to excel and offer his best to every guest.
As Singapore’s oldest family-operated restaurant, we hold onto a steadfast commitment: to make every dining experience with us as comforting and delightful as a meal in the comfort of your own home.
Following in my grandfatherβs footsteps, my parents and now I continue to foster his vision and zeal. We take pride in presenting the best of Singaporean Chinese culinary delights to you, turning your special moments into ours.

City Hot Pot
City Hot Pot’s journey began modestly with a small dining establishment nestled within the bustling Central Business District of Singapore. It made its debut in 2014, occupying a cozy 39-seat space on the fourth floor of One Raffles Place. The restaurant quickly became a local favorite, known for its personal hot pots and attractively priced offerings. Buoyed by their initial success, the owners expanded their footprint, launching a second branch in Guoco Tower, Singapore’s tallest building. This move wasn’t just about growth; it was a statement of intent to transform the individual hot pot experience into an everyday choice for a diverse clientele, both Singaporeans and international visitors alike, eager to savor the authentic flavors of Singapore’s hot pot cuisine.
The expansion continued with the opening of their third location on the western front, within Jurong Point shopping mallβSingapore’s largest mall outside the city center. With each passing year, City Hot Pot has continued to flourish, extending its reach and welcoming more diners into its warm embrace.
