About
Nong Geng Ji is a Hunanese restaurant chain. When it opened at Singapore's VivoCity in November 2023, Eatbook reported that its signature dish had sold more than 700,000 serves since its launch in June 2022. The Central Pinklao branch is on the ground floor and has one of the strongest Google records in the mall: 4.9 from about 1,800 reviews. Wongnai reviewers in early 2026 describe it as a new branch running opening promotions, with ordering by QR code at the table.
That dish is stir-fried pork with abalone and chilli, and a Wongnai reviewer at Pinklao had it served on a hot pan. SG Food on Foot describes the style as heavy on green chillies and pickled greens. KTC's guide to the mall recommends garlic prawns steamed over glass noodles, sea bass in a sour tomato broth, sweet-and-sour fried chicken, century egg with chilli and beef stir-fried in tea oil. Other Wongnai reviewers here mention egg custard, fried rice and a lime tea one of them singled out.
Wongnai puts spend at 251 to 500 baht a head. Cards are accepted and there is mall parking. MRT Bang Yi Khan is about 1 km away.
