Typhoon Cafe i12 Katong Review : Comfort Taiwanese Delight – TheWackyDuo.com

If you are looking for Taiwanese comfort food at a reasonable price, Typhoon
Cafe is the place to go. 

We recently visited Typhoon Cafe at i12 Katong to savour their authentic
Taiwanese dishes. This cosy spot offers a hole-in-the-wall cafe vibe and is
famous for its delectable sweet treats, like Souffel Stackers and Mochi
Waffles. You can find Typhoon Cafe at four different locations: i12 Katong
Mall, Kallang Wave Mall, Bugis+, and Plaza Singapura.

The i12 Katong outlet has an intriguing design – it feels like a hole in the
mall rather than a hole in the wall. Situated in the basement, it lacks a
traditional ceiling, offering a semi-alfresco dining experience with a view of
the mall’s layout. It’s a unique place to people-watch and be seen.

The seating booths are decorated in light browns with pops of orange-red
cushions and Tiffany green accents, creating a relaxed atmosphere that mirrors
the casual vibe of the food. 

We picked a selection of appetizers, mains and desserts for our meals. 

Appetiser

Chili Oil Dumplings $10.80

These dumplings are packed with generous fillings, delivering a satisfying
kick without being too spicy. Overall it was a decent choice while flavouring
could be enhanced.

Double Boiled Chicken Collagen Soup $12.80

 A hearty chicken meal with herbal flavours and a hint of ginseng in the
soup. This is perfect for a nourishing experience.

Mains

Panko Canadian Pork Chop With Egg-Fried Rice $14.80

The egg fried rice is familiar, not greasy, but could use more flavour. The
Pork Chop is a tad on the thin and dry side with a crispy texture. It is
filling in its own, so consider this dish and a dessert to go with it for a
quick meal.

Signature Taiwanese Oyster & Pork Intestine Mee Sua $14.80

If you’re a fan of pork intestine, you’ll love this dish; the smooth
vermicelli in a rich, gooey broth is a comforting delight. It’s not too
overwhelming in taste and just right for us.

Vegetable

Heavenly 4 Kings of Vegetables $13.80

This stir-fried mix of long beans, eggplant, stink beans, and winged beans,
cooked with shrimp sambal and garlic, offers a flavorful medley of textures
and tastes. A good option for those who want a healthier dish.

Seafood / Meat

Salted Egg Prawn $26.80

These big prawns fried with salted egg are not only delicious but also
convenient to enjoy without the need to peel. 

Claypot Sanbei Chicken $13.80

The dominant flavours in this dish came from soy sauce, rice wine, and sesame
oil, blending harmoniously with hints of basil and ginger, resulting in a
delightful aroma. Additionally, the chicken itself was remarkably tender and
juicy.

Dessert

White Rabbit Souffle $18.90

A must-try dessert with fluffy pancakes, dried oranges, White Rabbit milk
pudding, and White Rabbit ice cream – a delightful mix of flavours and
textures for a sweet ending. This is a special limited-time item that will be
available only until  30 September at $18.90 per set.
