Mookata Buffet 2

Traditional Thai-styled steamboat or Mookata, has been gaining popularity in Singapore over the years. Besides being able to enjoy your grill meats on a charcoal domed skillet, you can cook your vegetables, noodles and fishballs simultaneously with the broth in the hotpot.

Imagine having the pork lard and other flavours from your food dripping into your soup, and the homemade Thai chilli sauce where you can dip your barbecued meat in — there’s no better way to fill your stomach with a group of friends or a dinner with your family members!

Customers can usually order ala-carte dishes or a combo platter which can serve 2 to 3 pax. Unfortunately, Singaporeans simply don’t like the idea of limiting ourselves when it comes to good food.

3. Mookata at Bugis Junction

Mookata Buffet

Mookata is one of the pioneer of traditional Thai BBQ and has been around since 2011. They opened their first outlet along East Coast Road, and has slowly expanded to 3 outlets in Singapore — with the other 2 outlets in ORTO and Bugis Junction.

Besides having an extensive menu in their restaurants, their condiments were homemade to 3 different level of spiciness  — from the mild to the most spicy.

When they recently announced that they are offering buffets for these 2 new outlets, they had good response. What drew our attention was the $18.90++ buffet at Bugis Junction. Where can you dine in an air-conditioned outlet located in a shopping mall at such affordable price? The catch is the offer is only from 11:30am to 4pm, from Monday to Friday. Not too bad if you are looking for a place to lunch or have an early dinner.

You can even enjoy an additional 5% off your total bill when you snap, tag, and share your Mookata facebook post.

Buffet Price: $18.90++ (Mon to Fri)
