Saw the crowd and went in. Claypot Sesame Oil Chicken is good. The portion is big for the price. Fast and friendly service.

This restaurant offers great value meals without compromising on portion or taste. I've visited here a few times and tried different dishes each time. So far, only the stir-fried long bean with tofu was a letdown because it was quite bland. The other dishes were all satisfactory, and portions are always generous, even for the small-sized option! My personal favourites are the Mala Chicken and Sambal Kangkong. The staff here are polite, and seating is quite plentiful and comfortable.

Good dish served in a claypot. Sesame chicken is nice. The Mala lotus roots with prawns were not good. The lotus root was dark in color, as if it had already oxidized. The prawns were hard, like leftovers from last night. Too spicy for me.
The herbal sliced fish had a mild taste, but it was okay for me. The veggies were fine too.
Overall, I would revisit, but skip the Mala.

Quite impressed with the food quality. The food was steaming hot and made with fresh ingredients. The pork liver was cooked just right. The soup was flavourful and brought boiling hot to the table. We managed to finish it all!
We also signed up as members for a free drink.

We ordered the pig liver soup to try because most of the other options were spicy. We'll definitely want to try the spicy options too! But this time around, we had to choose non-spicy to make it kid-friendly. The ngoh hiang was crunchy and yummy!

Claypot Soup—A warm little gem bubbling in the heart of the neighbourhood.
Dropped by this cosy spot and found a few hits worth slurping.
Tried the frog leg soup—it’s alright, but leans on the bland side. Not bad, just not the star of the show.
The real MVP? 麻油鸡. So. Damn. Delicious. Fragrant, warming, and full of that rich sesame oil flavour—an absolute must-try.
Also had the 青龙菜—a bit on the salty side, but still tasty enough to clean the plate.
Verdict: A comforting little claypot gem in a growing neighbourhood. Come for the 麻油鸡, and leave with a warm belly and a happy heart.

Service staff were welcoming and efficient. The ambiance was cozy and air-conditioned, with ceiling fans, but not too cold on a rainy day, so elderly guests sensitive to cold could still dine inside. They do provide outdoor seating, but it was raining.
I ordered the small portion, not knowing what to expect. Thinking the portion might not be much, but I was wrong! The claypot was filled with chicken chunks that were surprisingly tender and moist, and the sauce wasn't too salty or sweet, pairing well with the white rice. The only thing that could be improved would be if the sesame oil flavor could be more pronounced, as the dish is sesame oil chicken after all. I ordered less spicy, but it still came quite spicy (peppered with chili padi), so perhaps if you have kids dining, just order non-spicy.
Great value for the price paid, and I would recommend family members to come so that we can order a variety of their dishes to share. Definitely bringing my family here next time to gorge ourselves!

Lau Wang Claypot at Tengah Plantation Plaza is a great spot for Tengah residents. The sesame chicken is consistently delicious: flavourful, tender, and perfectly cooked. The dishes are served piping hot and packed with rich, comforting flavours. Service is quick and friendly too. Definitely a solid choice for anyone craving a hearty, satisfying meal.

Here's the edited review:
"This is the go-to meal for my husband and me whenever we eat out at Tengah Plantation Plaza! Nothing beats a heart- and tummy-warming claypot dish when we are hungry. Strongly recommend the sesame chicken and sambal lady finger — lip-smacking good. Plus, the staff and service are excellent — very friendly and fast to serve. We've patronized them many times."
