“Absolutely love this traditional cuisine. The turtle is bred for consumption by the way. So it’s ethically sourced. The soup was my life saver whenever I catch a cold. It helps to improve the “yang” in me and really tasted awesome. The price is worth! Best of all, you can top up the soup. Had been visiting this since I was a kid when my dad brought me to the original soup more than 40 years ago. It’s worth a visit as it’s really a dying trade. Once this is gone, it will be lost forever!”

“Tai Seng Turtle Soup is a gem worth visiting, especially on a Sunday afternoon. The restaurant is easy to locate and offers convenient parking within the building. We enjoyed an authentic meal, with the $50 turtle soup for four standing out as a highlight. For those looking for more, the $60 option offers more portion. The $50 soup includes a good mixture of the skin and leg meat. We also ordered turtle eggs, while small, were delicious and easy for oner person to finish three. We also savoured the Cai Xin, Gai Lan, and Chai Po Omelette. The entire meal was both affordable and satisfying. The super friendly uncle added to the experience by topping up our soup twice, which was fantastic. The soup, served in a clay pot, stayed hot throughout our meal, even in the air-conditioned room. We’re likely to return for another visit.”

“Authentic turtle soup served in a family-friendly environment. Specialities include both turtle soup and crocodile soup; sides include fried chicken wings (always a hit with the kids), omelette, fish cake and vegetables. The turtle soup is neither overly herbal or salty, strikes a good balance between meat and collagen-rich skin pieces, and goes down very well with yam rice.

Share a large bowl of soup in a group, or get your very own bowl of soup to enjoy!”

“One of my secret comfort food venue whenever I’m around Paya Lebar area!

Park-eat-go type of food place, away from crowd where I can have a peaceful lunch, recharge and back to work.

Turtle soup is very tasty and serving is good with all the mixed ingredients.

Also like the yam rice. Harder to find such rice nowadays. Think they’re perfect fit with turtle soup!

Worth trying!”
