Coucou Hot Pot is coming to Singapore.
We've honestly never heard of it before this, but it's a restaurant specialising in Taiwanese-style hotpot and bubble tea, which is a great combination—hence this article.
It does, however, seem pretty popular overseas, with outlets in Shanghai, Beijing and Hong Kong
A quick search online shows that it was founded in 2016, and since grown to become an "online celebrity hot pot restaurant".
The Singapore branch will be located on Level 3 of Suntec City, and its hoarding indicates that the opening is due in December.

The outlet looks pretty sizeable, based on its floor plan:

Going by its restaurants elsewhere, it seems like we can expect a pretty posh place.

To give you a better idea of the price range, here's a look at the Hong Kong menu, which offers a set menu for two and four people.

It might not be the same in Singapore, but it appears to be around Haidilao's pricing, judging by the overseas menu.
Beverages
Some of the beverages you can order at Coucou Hot Pot's Singapore outlet include Taiwan tea, Taiwan bubble tea and Taiwan beer.
