Woodlands Claypot Prawn

Woodlands Claypot Prawn has pioneered a unique dining concept as Singapore's first restaurant specialising in charcoal claypot prawns, turning what could have been a simple seafood dish into a full-fledged interactive dining experience. The original outlet at Marsiling Industrial Estate started this prawn-centric movement, later expanding to Tampines, Jurong, and a halal-certified outlet at Toa Payoh.

The star attraction is the Specialty Prawn Broth priced at thirty-two dollars eighty cents, which arrives bubbling away over charcoal fire with twelve large, extremely fresh prawns. What sets this apart is the unlimited soup refill concept reminiscent of traditional hotpot dining, where the rich prawn broth forms the base for cooking over forty types of side dishes priced from eighty cents to ten dollars eighty cents. The menu keeps things focused with just two main items: the signature Charcoal Prawn and Hokkien Mee.

The charcoal-fueled claypot keeps the broth at an ideal simmer throughout the meal, allowing diners to cook sliced meats, vegetables, and additional ingredients at their own pace. The concept bridges traditional zi char culture with modern hotpot trends, creating a casual dining experience that works for groups and families. With multiple outlets across Singapore now, including the halal-certified Toa Payoh branch at 9 Toa Payoh Industrial Park, Woodlands Claypot Prawn has successfully carved out its niche in the competitive seafood dining scene.
