About Shi Xiang Satay 适香沙爹

Tucked in Chinatown Complex, Shi Xiang grills skewered chicken and pork over glowing charcoal with a rare Hainanese pineapple-crowned peanut dip. The smoke clings gently to crisp fat edges while the meat stays tender. Regulars grab a bench in the calmer green zone—often nursing a craft pint from nearby taps—and dip skewers deep into the chunky sauce, where sweet citrus cuts right through the roasted peanut richness.

  • Pineapple-topped satay sauce: Thick, chunky peanut gravy comes finished with a spoonful of pineapple purée to cut the richness.
  • Charcoal-grilled skewers: Tender chicken and pork skewers are grilled over charcoal for charred edges and rendered fat.
  • Relaxed hawker corner: Situated in the quieter green section of Chinatown Complex, steps from local craft beer taps.

  • Relaxed Green Section Hawker Corner

    Tucked into the calmer green corner of Chinatown Complex, the stall offers a serene hawker dining environment away from the usual crowds.

    located in a quieter part of the food centre (green section), it's also a more pleasant area to dine in
