There are so many hotpot places in Singapore, but Hai Di Lao remains a favourite for good reason — exemplary service and top-notch food quality, just to name a few. So on your birthday, expect to be treated like royalty.

Servers at the restaurant will sing birthday songs for the celebrant while holding LED-light displays. You may feel paiseh but tbh, isn’t it kinda cute? The LED-light displays are available as photo props as well. 

Hai Di Lao typically serves up nicely plated fruit platters, sometimes even with cake. Depending on the outlet and servers, you might also get a free customised Pulut Hitam (black glutinous rice in sweet soup with coconut milk), an ice cream platter, or even others gifts. For seniors, you might also be given longevity buns. 

Validity: Simply let the servers know that it’s your birthday!
Loyalty program cost: NIL; applicable to public
Additional T&Cs: Birthday treat varies between outlets
