Delicious brunch in the morning, followed by roaming the malls and streets of Bangkok on a shopping spree, and topping it off with an indulgent meal of smoky, delicious mookata sounds like an ideal trip in the Thai capital to me. 

While having mookata, or Thai BBQ, on the streets of Bangkok is a must do when you're there, fortunately, we can satisfy our mookata cravings in Singapore too. 

There are tons of mookata restaurants in Singapore serving unlimited mookata buffets or set meals with a variety of sinfully delicious ingredients ready to be grilled to perfection. From Golden Mile to mookata spots in coffee shops, here's a list of cheap mookata restaurants in Singapore.

Mr Mookata

4 Thai hunks made headlines in 2023 for being denied entry to Singapore to perform at Mr Mookata. However, they were replaced by 10 buff men from Singapore who wore white cropped singlets that showed off their abs. Unfortunately, that was just for the opening, so if you were hoping for your share of eye candy, you’ll be disappointed. 

Men aside, Mr Mookata’s other unique appeal is its 4 types of special homemade chilli sauce, said to be an authentic specialty from Thailand. Until the restaurant holds some new promotion, keep your eyes peeled for future appearances from some hunks.
