A woman who visited a food court for “iron pot stewed chicken” suffered severe burns on her legs when a stall employee accidentally spilt the soup.
Here’s what happened.
Incident Occurred While Serving Dinner
The female victim posted on the social media platform RedNote on Friday (21 Mar 2025), stating that at 7:20 PM on 25 Feb 2025, she and her colleagues went to Palate Food Court at North Link Building on Admiralty Street for dinner, where she was badly burned.

According to the post, her colleague suggested ordering Northeastern Chinese cuisine “iron pot stewed chicken,” but after placing their order, the stall owner informed them they would need to wait an hour.
When the dish was served after one whole hour of waiting, the stall employee accidentally poured the chicken soup onto her leg.
She immediately went to the stall’s sink to rinse the burned area for nearly 20 minutes before heading to the hospital for treatment.
After hospital treatment, the victim continued rinsing the burn at home.
Photos show extensive redness and blisters on her right thigh, with smaller blisters on her other thigh.
She noted that her thighs continued to form new blisters for two weeks after the burn.
Victim Seeking Compensation
“My legs keep developing new blisters. I clean the wound five times daily and return to the hospital every two to three days for check-ups and cleaning. I also want to remind everyone to keep away when hot food is served,” the victim said.
The victim mentioned that the stall owner said they had been operating for 10 years and would take responsibility, asking her to focus on recovery.

So after three weeks, when her wounds had healed somewhat, she returned to seek compensation.
Reporters contacted the victim, who confirmed she is currently seeking compensation.
When reporters visited the food court on Friday, they observed that four tables in the food court had stoves that could accommodate “large iron pots” in the middle.
A stall employee explained that when customers order “iron pot stewed chicken,” they stew the chicken in an iron pot and then serve the entire pot at the table.
Charcoal is added to the stove to keep the stewed chicken heated.
