Bowls of wok hei goodness

You’re probably no stranger to the Thai dish pad thai, but have you ever heard of suki hang, a sweet and savoury stir-fry bowl that’s also widely popular in the country?

If the dish name doesn’t ring a bell, don’t worry — you’re about to discover one of Thailand’s best-kept street food gems at the newly opened Suki Bowl in Katong.

Picture this: A dish that marries the rich, savoury undertones of Japanese sukiyaki with the vibrant, aromatic spices of Thai cooking.

Suki hang is essentially a hearty stir-fry (“hang” means dry in Thai), typically comprising glass noodles, Chinese cabbage, kangkong, golden mushroom, and your choice of protein, all enveloped in a tangy, yet well-balanced sauce.

It’s a relatively simple street food that can be found in Thailand — you might have even tried it at popular stall Elvis Suki in Bangkok — though it hadn’t quite made its way to our island yet.

Until Suki Bowl came along, that is.

Started by the same folks behind Thai barbecue chain Siam Square Mookata and Running Egg, Suki Bowl brings its a fresh take on this Thai beloved street food to Singapore.

This new venture didn’t happen overnight — it’s the culmination of five years of exploring Thailand’s suki speciality restaurants, in a bid to bring this dish to our shores.

What sets Suki Bowl apart is its signature sauce, a unique blend crafted from Siam Square Mookata’s sauces, armed with an authentic taste that would seem like it came off the streets of Thailand.

Suki Bowl’s first Singapore outlet is tucked away in Roxy Square’s first-floor coffee shop, also home to the legendary Janggut Laksa. And yes, it can get a little confusing to find, if you’re not familiar with the area. (It took me a solid 10 minutes to track it down!)

But once you do, you’ll realise that the search is worth it.

Suki Bowl at Roxy Square keeps things fuss-free and simple, with just one dish — suki bowl — on its menu, in five different variations.

Having a meal here is easy on your wallet, too. Prices start from S$5.50, with nothing above S$8.50 — we think that’s a pretty good deal for a satisfying meal, with carbs, proteins and veggies that doesn’t compromise on taste!

Bowls of wok hei goodness

The menu at Suki Bowl is straightforward — there’s just five different variations you can choose from.

You can pair any dish with your choice of Thai glass noodles or tom yum Mama noodles, and you can opt for either dry or soup versions.

For those of us who take awhile to decide (like us!), the all-in (S$8.50) is the perfect choice. It has a little bit of everything — juicy chicken thigh, pork belly, tender cuttlefish, and prawns.

We paired our dry all-in bowl with the Thai dong fen, which offers a pleasantly springy bite, and held up after cooking.

Sourced exclusively and imported directly from Thailand, the Thai glass noodles used are unlike the versions you might find in Singapore — it has a firmer texture, allowing it to maintain its springiness after all that wok-tossing, while absorbing all of the saucy goodness.

All of the elements — crunchy greens, silky scrambled eggs, and a slightly sweet-and-spicy sauce — were deliciously tied together with the right dose of charred aroma, too.

The Powerhouse (S$8.50) is a dream come true for gym enthusiasts, with its sheer amount of protein within. It features tender chicken breast and three eggs.

For a change, we opted for tom yum Mama noodles this time, which reminded us of the times we’ve had this ubiquitous Thai instant noodle by a roadside stall while in Bangkok.

Here, the noodles were coated in the same glossy, flavourful sauce that came in the earlier dish, but the thicker Mama noodles had soaked up more of the sauce, giving it a heavier, bolder taste than if we were to have opted for glass noodles.

We think the choice of Mama noodles is perfect for those who love a good oomph of spice, and is a definite shoo-in if you’re a Maggie lover!

For the plant-based eaters, Suki Bowl has you covered with a hearty vegetarian option (S$5.50) loaded with two extra eggs — a filling and nutritious meal, no less.

Other bowls you can choose from include: Chicken thigh (S$6.50), pork belly (S$6.50), and seafood (S$7.50), with cuttlefish and prawns.

The next time you’re in Katong and craving some Thai fare, you might want to give Suki Bowl at Roxy Square a try — you’ll be in for a hearty meal that’s sure to satisfy.
