Take this as your sign to visit Paya Lebar, or more specifically, Singpost Centre: Bai Wei Mini Bowl, a new eatery that’s been blowing up all over social media, has opened at the mall!
The popular eatery, which has multiple outlets across Malaysia, offers single-serve bowls of Sichuan and Cantonese dishes, priced from just $1.90 each. Evidently, from the photo above, this attractive price point has drawn many people to the restaurant. Bai Wei was packed when we visited on a weekday during lunch.
Prices range from $1.90 to $5.90. The best part is everything is nett!
The cheapest items are $1.90 each, with options such as Stir Fry Shredded Potato and Trio Egg, which comes with three types of eggs.
The $2.90 tier has options including Stir Fried Shredded Cabbage, studded with pork belly bits. The cabbage was fried in a house-made sauce, and was surprisingly packed with wok hei. Another $2.90 dish we tried and loved was the Century Egg with Amaranthus, AKA Chinese spinach.
Alternatively, go for the Sichuan Twice Cooked Pork ($3.90), featuring well-marinated pork belly with mixed veggies.
Do note that the dishes are all a la carte, so if you need your carbs, you can top up $1 for rice or porridge.
We also tried the Red Braised Pork ($5.90), which was the priciest item on the menu. This dish came with hard-boiled eggs and tender pork chunks, cooked in a savoury-sweet gravy.
As the restaurant is new, there may be some teething issues. Check their Instagram page for the latest updates on their opening hours!
Another must-try eatery nearby is Ne Ne Neko, a relatively new Japanese cafe with affordable mains. Otherwise, read our Chicken Pot review for spicy chicken hotpot and dan dan noodles at PLQ!
