Ah Di Claypot Delights – Best Claypot Gong Bao Ever!

Every family has a must-order whenever they are having zi char. For my family, we love having 宫保鸡丁 (Gong Bao Chicken). The glorious sweet and spicy chicken became so famous that it has made an appearance in Western countries known as the kung pow chicken. So where can you find the best? My choice will be Ah Di Claypot Delights!

We arrived at Ah Di Claypot Delights just 10 minutes after they had started operations for the day. The coffee shop was still empty, and some of the stalls were not opened yet. We were early as we didn’t want to jostle with the lunch crowd. To our surprise, Ah Di Claypot Delights was already busy preparing their legendary gong bao for 16 people! The owner shared that this wasn’t an unusual occurrence as there are many loyal customers who love the gong bao.

The best dish at Ah Di Claypot Delights, of course, has to be the Gong Bao Chicken($5/$7). The cubes of meat, which were coated in a spicy brown sauce, were firm and juicy. Ah Di Claypot Delights does not serve the starchy version of our clay pot favourite. Hence, the spiciness is more pronounced in their rendition of the classic dish. Pro tip – pair the chicken with rice, especially if you can’t handle the spiciness.

The owner also recommended the Pig’s Organ Soup ($4/ $6) which was superb. Just one glance at the soup, and we knew that the soup was boiled for many hours. The owner confirmed our suspicions by revealing that the soup was boiled overnight! The soup was a culmination of the essences of the myriad of ingredients that it was boiled with. We absolutely loved the tender pork, and soft slices of liver.

The stall owner has another stall which her son has taken over. Ah Di Claypot Delights has been around for more than 10 years, and they have moved several times. If you stay in the west, you might remember them from a long time ago. I’m glad to have discovered this gem which can be reached on foot, from Choa Chu Kang MRT, in just 5 minutes. If Choa Chu Kang is too far for you, you can find them at their new stall in Sembawang.
