New Lok Lok Bar Sells Skewers, Seafood Pao Fan & Soju Till 11pm Daily
There are beer towers from $58 too.
There’s a lok lok trend sweeping through Singapore now — more eateries here are offering the crowd-pleasing Malaysian street snack, which consists of steamboat ingredients on skewers that are either deep-fried or boiled in a broth.
Lok lok and booze
The latest spot to serve it is The Lok Lok Bar, which opened just last November at the Concourse Skyline condominium along Beach Road. Other than fried lok lok, the bar also has an extensive selection of beer towers, soju and liquor to wash down the crispy grub with.
$1 lok lok in February
Each skewer costs $1.50, though the eatery is running a month-long promotion for February where each stick of lok lok will go for $1. The selection of lok lok includes fried chicken, crab cakes and cocktail sausages, as well as the usual suspects like crab sticks, fish cakes and hot dogs.
Self-service
Customers can choose their own skewers, which are displayed in a chiller.
There’s seafood pao fan and noodles too
Other than lok lok, there’s also a pao fan dish called Seafood Supreme Rice ($16) and a noodle version called Seafood Supreme Noodle ($16) on the menu. You can also order bar grub like Breaded Potato Croquettes ($8) and Crispy Fish Skin ($12).
The booze
Sapporo beer is sold here by the pint (from $10) or in a tower (from $58). There’s also Jinro soju in green grape and grapefruit flavours ($25 a bottle) and Yakult Soju ($30 for jug, $58 for tower).
Lunch set meals
The bar also has two lunch-only set meals, starting from $6.90 for a 5-pc Lok Lok Bento Set, which comes with rice and a soft drink. The other option is a Seafood Supreme Noodle/Rice ($12.90) which includes a soft drink.
The look
The Lok Lok Bar’s location is pretty ulu, but it’s lit with plenty of cheeky neon signs.
