You don’t have to splurge if you’re craving Fujianese cuisine from Michelin-starred Putien. The homegrown chain has opened a casual eatery in NUS UTown, aptly named CHOP CHOP By Putien. With everything on the menu priced under $8, this outlet hopes to cater to time-pressed students and those living around Clementi.
The dishes served here are inspired by Putien Kitchener Road, which was the brand’s first restaurant, and was awarded a Michelin star for four consecutive years, from 2016 to 2019. The express food service showcases some of Putien’s signature dishes, including Fujian Seafood Lor Mee ($7.90), Fried Heng Hwa Bee Hoon ($7.90), and Putien Cabbage Rice ($6.90).
Make your meal complete by topping up $1 for an appetiser of the day, and your choice of homemade juice. Starters are also priced affordably at $3.50, with options such as Braised Bamboo Shoot, and Braised Homemade Bean Curd. The drinks are also easy on the wallet, with homemade juices including Lime Juice ($1.20), and Pearl Barley with Winter Melon ($1.50).
Other must-tries include Putien Sweet and Sour Pork with Lychee ($7.90), and Spinach in Supreme Stock ($5.90). Finally, cool off with a dessert or two; choose either the Lotus Seed with White Fungus Soup ($2), or Chilled Loquat In Herbal Jelly ($2.50).

The casual eatery seats up to 50 people for dining in, and is also available for takeaway and delivery within the Clementi vicinity via popular delivery platforms such as Oddle, Foodpanda and GrabFood.
