I called a day earlier to check on the exact location of this newly opened restaurant and spoke to Christina.

From the set lunch menu we chose one Stone Pot Sliced Pork for myself and my son chose the Stone Pot Chicken. We had side dish of Oyster Sauce Chai Xin and Onion Omelette for both of us.

Reasonably priced at S$9.90 for each set lunch.
The rice served in a hot stone bowl is extremely hot preserving the heat to a maximum level.
The high heat has created the rice to be crispy layer after layer.

The key point to note is to stir the rice over and over again and not letting it sit with the high heat if you do not wish to have too crispy rice. Both the marinated chicken pieces and the sliced pork are tasty. There were very small bits of salted fish which I think is a bit too hard. Also a reasonably amount of Chinese sausages and chye sim on each stone bowl. Black sauce are mixed to each stone bowl of rice before serving.

The Kai Lan dish is within normal standard. Topped with a savory sauce and sprinkled with deep fried onions. It would be great if the stems of the Kai Lan was more crunchy.

For side dish we opted for the Chicken in Longan and Black Bean Soup. The broth has a combination of three kinds of bones namely pork, fish and chicken. Tasty broth without any MSG. Dried longans added natural sweetness to the soup. Reasonable amount of black beans with assorted Japanese mushrooms and a few slices of liquorice Sticks. Priced at S$6.90 for a small portion.

The dishes were presented to us in a food service trolley which I think is very practical and taking into consideration the weight and the temperature of the stone bowls. I guess its also part of safety measures.

Christina was very helpful and friendly. Ariel Tan the Restaurant Director shared some thoughts with us on her food menu and suggested that it is better to call in advance to place order so that we can have our food served upon arrival. Normally it would take like 15 to 20 minutes for the preparation.

I was given a 10 percent discount for my first visit to the restaurant.

By the way, this restaurant accept cash for bills below S$50.00

Credit card payment is acceptable for S$50 and above.

Signature stone rice chicken and pork with top grade mushroom and salted fish, ingredients very fresh, mushrooms very nice. Pork is nice with a bit of marination. The taste a bit different from stone rice with chicken, we like this one too, very fragrant with premium ingredients. Overall good but more discounts needed as normal price is too expensive to be eaten with service charge.

With a lot of tedious stirring, I finally managed to stir all the ingredients inside the 'Stone Bowl' nicely together. Here comes the nice part about this dish.

The taste of this is pretty much similar to a normal 'Claypot Rice' and unlike the normal 'Claypot', this does not have the problem of the rice sticking onto the bowl. Therefore like some of my friends, if you really love the taste and the texture of
the overcook, crispy rice, you could really savour it till the very last bit over here. On top of the crispy rice, each individual bite also comes with a nice fragrance of 'Salted fish' and a good mix of the sweet ingredients listed in the above. Even though the portion of 'Claypot Rice' that I'm getting over here are much more smaller than the regular ones, but I don't need to worry about the bones of the 'Chicken' and I could really emptied the whole bowl without any wastage.

(By the way, as compared to any other types of bowl, the 'Stone Bowl' can keep the food warm for a much more longer period of time, which is a big (+)

This brand new establishment is small & cozy, the new kid on the block, located in a localized neighborhood, formerly known to the nocturnal patrons for teochew porridge & other supper treats. The modus operandi for groups dining is advisable to place orders ahead of arrival, as the food is cooked ala-minute.

Unlike common claypot practices, Signature Stone asserts & ensures quality in the preparation, as well as the end to end cooking process, before the food is served.

The stone carved bowls are lightly oiled prior to stove firing & cooking the order. And because of the consistency of heat transfer, the charred rice can be pried from the bowl with a light tapping of the spoon.

To each his/her own, an order of a variety comprising of; bacon & cheese rice, chicken & Chinese sausage, pork & Chinese sausage… with or without salted fish etc.

I had the sliced pork & Chinese sausage (without salted fish). As soon as the bowl hits the table, the service staff helps you to fold the rice, very much like bimbibap. This helps to ensure that the ingredients are well mixed, and that the crispy charred rice gets to randomize with the rest of the content.

There’s pretty little need to drizzle too much of the sweetened dark soy sauce, as the heat transfer from the stone bowl is a little more intense & enduring than claypot, there’s a risk of spoiling the taste if the sweet dark soy sauce chars.

Along with the mains, we were also introduced to the featured chicken, longan & black bean soup. The doneness of the chicken is well done, and the taste suggests it’s cooked the old school slow fire style.

I’m not too sure about the wine chicken, as I’m more familiar to the semi sweetened tastes of the hock-chew red wine chicken, and/or Chinese rice wine chicken. The taste packed quite a bit of punch, and has a bit of strong herbal after taste.

The onion, cheese & mushroom omelet is an example of a slight push of conventions, the management wishes to modernize its menu, extending to the younger crowd as well.

Last but not the least, mango ice cream locally crafted using imported Thai mangoes. No artificial flavoring/ coloring, au natural.

I was invited for food tasting at Signature Stone Restaurant located at Havelock Road.The restaurant is approximately 10-15 minutes walking distance from Tiong Bahru MRT. The restaurant is located in between a row of shophouses facing HDB flats.

Signature Stone Restaurant speciality is claypot rice dishes in stone bowls. Besides the traditional chinese version of claypot rice, the restaurant also create modern fusion versions. The western flavors that are quite creative in the list are bacon & cheese, garlic herb salmon, ham & cheese and etc. These are the interesting lists that i was attracted to.

If you would like to pay a visit, i would suggest you to call 10 minutes before you arrive to place your order. There is a typical waiting time of approximately 15 - 20 minutes for food preparation. We were given a brief introduction about the food preparation by the lady boss, Ariel. The foods served in the restaurant does not contain MSG at all. The stone pot are brushed with a layer of oil only so that it can have the cripsy rice without being burnt black.

I had claypot pork rice without salted fish. It was served in sizzling pipping hot stone bowl. The staff is very helpful in helping me to mix the rice when it is served. They also recommended us to add the black soya sauce to the rice to add on the stronger taste.

Other OpenRicers opt for the Bacon & Cheese Stone Pot Rice. It is recommended to eat while the dish is still hote as the rice gets quite dry and hard when it's cool. I personally think that the cheese isn't enough and the taste is kinda bland. But the cheese fragrance smell does attracts us on the beginning of the serving.

The lady boss, Ariel also served us Longans & Black Bean Soup which was boiled with 3 different kinds of bone (pork, chicken and fish). Surprise to hear that it boiled with fish bone as most of the broth will boiled with pork or chicken.Understand from the lady boss that the fish bone is able to bring out the sweetness of the broth.The dried longan is soft and juicy and it has the assorted mushrooms and black bean in the soup as well. However, the chicken meat is slightly tough.Overall the soup is delicious and we are quite addicted to it.

Wine Chicken soup is also the recommendation from the lady boss as well.This version is not what we usually have as it tasted a bit spicy. There are dried chilies in it hence explains the spiciness aftertaste. It does not have a strong taste of wine. The chicken meats are cut into small cubes and the meat texture is tender and smooth.

another thing that is worth mentioning here is their sambal chilli! it is lady boss's secret recipe and it really set your taste bud on fire!

Located in the relatively quiet neighbourhood of Beo Crescent / Havelock Road, Signature Stone Restaurant offers a unique concept; claypot dishes prepared with hot stone bowls. This novel method of preparation ensures a consistent heat throughout the meal, and also prevents rice from blackening even as it still becomes crisp. Along with the concept of hot stone bowls, Signature Stone Restaurant also offers a range of traditional Chinese dishes, and several unique Western inspired dishes.

Ambience at Signature Stone Restaurant is just average. With a small floor space and few seats, reservations are recommended if you wish to visit. While clean, bright and air-conditioned, the small area of Signature Stone Restaurant also increases the ambient noise levels. Decor is minimal.

Service is outstanding at Signature Stone Restaurant. You should call 10 minutes before you arrive to place your order, so as to avoid the typical waiting time of 15 - 20 minutes for food preparation. Staff will help you prepare the dish when they serve. I also like that they check if your meal is going well, something that only happens in more up-market restaurants.

Food at Signature Stone Restaurant is excellent. Overall, dishes are tasty, flavourful and quite filling. I like the different options of Asian and Western dishes on the menu, as well as the variety of side dishes, most of which are served in the signature hot stone bowls. The food is thoroughly cooked but not dry, well seasoned, and the rice gets crisp without being burnt black. Prices are reasonable and affordable, at about SGD $7 - $15 per dish, good value for money.

The version is not what one usually have as the chicken used here are in small cube forms. As there is dried chillies in it, the soup has a hint of spiciness aftertaste. I would prefer a stronger wine taste, especially the chicken do not taste of the wine.

Lastly we end the meal with creamy mango ice-cream made by the lady boss, which has interesting texture with minced mango bites in it.

These days it is difficult to find air-con places that sell good traditional claypot rice and no need to wait too long. I think I will be back for the Asian Flavour Sliced Pork Rice which has such tender pork. Thank you OpenRice for inviting me to this Food Tasting Session.

As a guest of OpenRice tonight, I was really looking forward to trying the food here. I'd read about the restaurant before my tasting invite and had planned to check it out anyway. A cross between the old...Chinese claypot, salted fish, classic herbal ingredients like red dates, longan etc. and the new...stone pots, western flavour options and you get Signature Stone Pot dishes. Not that stone pots are new, Korean bibimbap anyone?, but in Chinese cuisine it is.

Did the restaurant live up to my expections? YES!!!

I had the "Stone Pot Siced Pork with Salted Fish" and it reminded me of my childhood, when Mum served up salted fish often.
The dish was as tasty as I'd hoped it would be, it wasn't oily and had just the right amount of 'crust' on my rice. And despite being late, my meal was still piping hot when I arrived! I suspect, anyone who either didn't grow up eating salted fish, or dislikes salty food may find this dish overpowering, but I believe you can request for the fish to be omitted.

My only disappointment, that I hadn't booked a taxi and arrived earlier, as I missed a delicious soup and other sides according to my dining table companions, Kelly & Wes. That's okay, I'll be back to try the soup and other Stone Pot dishes. The "Water Chestnut" cold drink complimented the meal and was finished off with a large scoop of brightly coloured mango ice cream. I personally prefer mango sorbet, with a natural fruit flavoured tang, rather than the artificially sweet ice cream.

The restaurant is very clean, bright and spacious, which is great for someone like me with a 3 yo and 10 mth old baby in a pram.

Looking forward to returning with the family to relive the experience (and give a pram-ometer* rating!)

*pram-ometer rating; my take on how accommodating a restaurant/cafe is for a classic Maclaren pram that isn't overly wide and easily manoeuvres in/out of tight spaces.

. Parked near mscp blk 28A at beo crescent but i realize it may be better to park at blk 51 mscp instead since its just directly opposite. Simple interior deco with nice marble top tables and old style chairs. Likely a 40 seater restaurant. The staff speaks English so it was easy to make orders. There's also a lcd tv on the wall screening local tv, i enjoyed that and watch TV while lunching. From the menu it seems their signature dish is the stone pot rice so i opted for the lunch set meal, which includes one stone pot rice (i chose pork), one vegetable and one soy beancurd dessert and Chinese tea. I was also given some achar as appetizer. This achar is really thinly slice and the sour nature does bring out your lunch hunger LOL. My vege was served first, liked the sprinkled garlic on the vege. When the rice was served, it immediately reminded me its somewhat a in between of traditional Chinese claypot rice and Korean bibimbap. Served on a wooden holder, the bowl is so hot that anything that touches it sizzles for minutes. The bottom of the bowl is probably coated with oil, making the layer of the rice touching the bowl golden brown and crispy. The server was nice to prepare the dish for me, adding dark soy sauce to it and mixing it well for my consumption. She also explained a little the difference between this and claypot rice is the rice would get burnt so easily yet making the rice crispy and hot. Lup Cheong, minced meat slices and xiao bai chai makes up the dish. i wish there was a little more meat though for a $10 set i paid for. But indeed the rice was crispy yet not burnt, i guess its about the temperature and flame control that made it possible. One thing to mention is the belacan chilli went very well with the rice and they are quite "conservative" for the quantity served so just ask for more
. Dessert was just a small soya beancurd, the lao ban toufu type, pretty average. Total bill $10.35 including the 50cents wet tissue. Hope to return next time to try the rice with their soup. if they could produce good quality tasty soup, it would be a pretty good combination.

But the dining experience can further be enhanced with more messaging either on the menu or the wall about the history behind this fusion styled cuisine, or maybe even showing in-house dishes recommendation on the TV.

It impressed me on how they prepared the rice and it really tastes marvellous!!I again returned to try other type of rice fillings with other dishes and never once disappoint me. I also like the onion cheese omelette... wow like eating pizza without the pizza crunch....The only thing is the waiting time is about 15mins.... lady boss gave me their order chit and now I will call in and order 10mins before I arrive.

Its so nice!! I have been here many times. I love their Salted Fish Stone Rice and the Bacon & Cheese Rice (new on their menu)! Their concept is like claypot rice with a twist. Instead of traditional Chinese claypot rice, they have western style too. And what's make them really nice as compared to traditional claypot rice is that the food remain hot till the last spoonful. And the Crispy crunchy rice that remain at the bottom of the stone. I will really scrap up the last bit!Beside the rice, my

Beside the rice, my family and friends will always order one seafood/ fish soup to share. It taste really yummy!!

OMG! Can't wait for my next visit Soon!!!
