Dongbei Sichuan Cuisine is a Chinese restaurant at 1 West Coast Drive, #01-91 NEWest, in Clementi, Singapore. It holds a Google rating of 2.6 from 5 reviews. Reviews are critical: one customer says a meal had no meat, another says the beef brisket was tough and tasteless, and a third mentions a tomato beef soup that was thinner than expected. One reviewer also says the online ordering through a messaging app stopped working.
A good Sichuan and Dongbei restaurant is judged on the depth of its broths and braises, and on whether the meat is tender and fully flavoured. Braised beef is best served hot and with its sauce, so a dish that arrives cold or watery is worth raising at the counter. Asking what the main ingredient is before ordering avoids surprises. Regulars often check the portion and the meat before they leave.
West Coast Drive is a residential road in Clementi, which makes this restaurant a convenient place for a warm meal close to home.
