Paper Rice Vietnamese Kitchen

One of my accumulated backlogs which I had always wanted to share on the blog. Life has been so busy despite Covid. I am now trying to document down the nice eating places to share with all, lest I may forget over time. 

This was my 2nd visit to Paper Rice Vietnamese Food Restuarant, which is one of the successful F&B concepts under Arteastiq Group. 


In December 2021, there was also an announcement from Arteastiq Group on the opening of the 2nd outlet for Paper Rice Vietnamese Kitchen at Plaza Singapura, which was conveniently located in town. 

On the first visit, I came with the Ngs and Xav for dinner and I clearly remembered he ordered the instagrammable Signature Premium Wagyu Beef Pho (with sliced truffles) and I am back again this time for lunch with the ladies (both visits at Changi City Point). 

I feel that Paper Rice Vietnamese Kitchen deserves a post for its unique dishes with elements of surprises enveloped within. Experience the authentic taste of Vietnam here!  

From the entrance, I could already see the lavishly decorated space with red bricks and dark wood furniture,  with hanging plants from the ceiling too. The dining ambience was  Here are some we have ordered! The plating and presentation were not only visually pleasing, some of the dishes set my palate on fire! 

Some of the mouth-watering starters, Spring Roll Platters (fresh prawns, mushroom and tofu, deep-fried spring rolls with seafood and mustard lettuce rolls with grilled beef) though it was a starter, good to share this platter otherwise I feel that there will be not enough room for other dishes. The spring rolls were served with rice vermicelli, fresh greens,  Vietnamese peanut sauce and seafood sauce for dipping. 





Hue Minced Pork Lemongrass Skewers are highly recommended! I loved how the skewers were served over the grilling plate. It was succulent and juicy when we sank our bite in. Surely deserves a spot on the Instagram feed! 


It was served with rice vermicelli on purple lettuce leaves and Vietnamese peanut sauce. 

Not only popular in French cuisine, but Paper Rice Vietnamese Kitchen also serves escargot too! Check this out! Vietnamese Hotplate Spicy Escargot served with crispy rice cracker!


Grilled Spicy Seafood Platter for the seafood lovers! There were 3 servings each of the tiger prawns, capelin and squid, served with mint leaves and fresh vegetables. Served with a generous portion of fresh greens, mint leaves wrapped with fine rice vermicelli and home-made spicy sauce. My tolerance level for spiciness is on the low side. Those who can take it well,  will love this dish for sure!


Deep fried Tiger Prawns wrapped in Crispy Noodles, if memory did not fail me, the chef had hidden chilli seasoning at the back of the prawns and then wrapped up the prawns with noodles. This element of surprise was a HOT one! 



We tried to balance our meals with more greens and proteins than carbs, and we added on Sauteed Beancurd with Spicy Lemongrass Peanut Sauce


The only carbs we ordered was Spicy Fish Banh Mi. I wish I could have tolerated the spiciness well. The meat was thick succulent and flavourful but I needed to cool my tongue down before I could fully enjoy this. 



Vietnamese is the second largest coffee producer in the world and of course, their coffee is one not to be missed! You have to try Iced Egg Coffee from Hanoi! It was served with an airy layer of egg-cream (egg yolk+condensed milk) over the top. Not your usual Starbucks kind of coffee, do try it! 


Be sure to try out their desserts too if you are making your visit. Too much to stomach any further, I had to try them on my next visit.
