TungLok is probably one of the first Singapore business to come out and congratulate singer Nathan Hartono on its Facebook page.

Hartono, 25, finished 2nd in the Sing! China competition tonight in Beijing and is the first Singaporean finalist of the competition.

In case you think that the local restaurant chain is jumping on the success bandwagon, it is not really the case.

This is because Hartono is the grandson of TungLok Group founder Tjioe Ji Nan.

And the social media manager of TungLok must be really excited with Hartono's 2nd place at Sing! China competition, typing a total of six exclamation marks!!!!!!

The social media manager congratulated his/her own bosses -- Hartono's mother and uncle -- before he/she happily revealed that spinach tofu is Hartono's favourite dish.

The full blog post below:

Congratulations to our Singapore boy, NATHAN, for being the very 1st Singaporean to reach the finals, and finishing an amazing 2nd in SING! CHINA. Thank you for making us so proud!
