MODU Samgyetang Specialty

Historical 2025 opening record. Confirm current status

This 2025 record documents a new concept restaurant in Orchard.

Worth it for / Skip if

Not on record yet. Clauses here are generated only from named fields — a published price, a booking route, the verified hours — and this venue carries too few of them to draw the line honestly. Nothing is inferred to fill the gap.

What it costs

No priced item is on record for this venue. Forkin publishes a price only where a dated public source carries it, so nothing is estimated here.

How to get a seat

No online booking channel is on record for this venue. Verified hours are not on record either, so call ahead before travelling.

What to expect

  • Getting there — Somerset MRT, 5 minutes on foot · 333A Orchard Rd, #02-29 Mandarin Gallery, Singapore 238897.
  • Dietary requests, dress code and group size — not on record. Ask when you call ahead.

The longer version

The two countable accounts agree on robust, hearty soups and samgyetang as nourishing comfort food. The Straits Times is warm on the soups themselves while finding the side dishes less impressive, and The Ranting Panda recommends the samgyetang without reservation. Invited and media tastings, and coverage of the Amoy Street sibling outlet, are context only; sponsorship and affiliate checks remain unresolved.

What the published coverage says, assessed by the Forkin editorial desk from 3 linked sources — not a personal dining review. Every source behind it is under How this was assessed.

Signature dishes

No dish is named for this venue in any source on record. Dishes are listed here only where an official source names them, so none are guessed from menus or reviews.

The official menu

No official menu is on record for this venue. Forkin transcribes a menu only from the venue's own published source, never from a review or an aggregator listing.

Opening hours

Day-by-day hours are not verified for this venue. Hours are published here only once a dated source has been read for the whole week, so a partial week is never shown as a full one.

Verified recent posts from this account are not yet on record, so none are embedded here. Forkin' Worth It only embeds posts it has verified as published by the venue's own official account, and never copies or rehosts Instagram images.

Common questions

No question can be answered from this venue's record yet. Answers here are generated from sourced fields only — a published price, a booking route, the verified hours — so none is written where the field behind it is missing.

Why MODU Samgyetang Specialty scores 7.4

WORTH A LOOK · band 7.0–8.4 (base 7.5)

The Forkin Evidence Score is a transparent calibration of the published evidence behind this venue's editorial stamp — not a personal dining rating, and never derived from Google data. It starts from the stamp's base value, applies the five evidence adjustments below, then clamps the result inside the stamp's band.

Editorial stamp

WORTH A LOOK

Confidence: medium

Forkin desk assessment of attributable public coverage — not a personal dining review.

Two countable exact-outlet evaluations are favourable — The Straits Times (20 Feb 2025) and The Ranting Panda (24 Jan 2025 SGT) — the first an established newspaper review. Invited/media tastings and the Amoy Street sibling outlet are context only. Re-verified 27 Aug 2026: both countable sources re-retrieved and re-dated from the DOM; the earlier “three evaluations” wording predated the 15 Aug 2026 reclassification of the Daniel Food Diary piece and was corrected.

Last assessed 27 August 2026 · 3 linked substantive sources

Caveat: Both countable links fall inside the venue’s Jan–Mar 2025 launch window (the out-of-window link was the Daniel Food Diary piece, context only since 15 Aug 2026); source-specific sponsorship/affiliate checks remain unresolved — neither countable source carries an explicit payment or hosting disclosure.
