Wang Fu is Now Open at SM Bicutan

We spotted just before we left Dona Soledad last Sunday that Wangfu was open already. It's one of the restos we've been waiting to open at SM Bicutan. It's the second full restaurant that opened on Building C (first one was Old Town). We immediately planned to visit and try it out. 

Wang Fu Chinese Bistro has a number of branches across the metro. They offer a fushion of Chinese, Malay and Singaporean dishes. What struck me the first time we went was the interior of the resto. It reminded me so much of the food street at Changi Airport. It felt like we were transported to Singapore (especially with the ceiling fans!). 

The menu provided a huge variety to choose from. You can either go for ala carte meals that can be shared, bento meals, or rice meals. The menu reminded me a lot about the offerings at Singapore's Food Republic and a bit of Kim Gary*. Beverage options were also much like what they offer in Singapore and Malaysia. 

We were hungry when we went, so we each ordered a bento meals. I had the sweet & sour pork with lychee. I know I used to have it a lot in Singapore, but can't remember where I used to order it (maybe Kim Gary?). Jay had the black pepper beef which is one of the dishes he frequently ate while we lived in Singapore. Miggy got the salted egg chicken and he said he felt nostalgic after eating it. 

I wanted to try their HK milk tea, but the staff said it was phased out already (boo!). We all ended up having Nanyang white coffee (hot and cold). It was good. I'm just really sad they didn't have milk tea anymore. It would have matched the food perfectly. 

We went on a weekday and it was way past lunch. We immediately found seats, but the resto was busy even at odd hours. The staff were very nice and efficient, so we'll definitely visit again soon.  

*Kim Gary - a resto in Vivo City in Singapore we used to frequent. It unfortunately closed during the pandemic.

**After some research I found out the owner of Wang Fu is Richard Yap. Of course, I'm happy to support a fellow La Sallian :)
