About NEX
NEX is the largest mall in North-East Singapore — a seven-storey complex built directly above Serangoon MRT station, where the North East Line and Circle Line meet. It’s also physically integrated with Serangoon Bus Interchange, so if you’re arriving by bus you walk straight from the bus bay into the mall without stepping outside. This is one of the more transit-convenient Shabu Sai locations on the island, since you don’t need to factor in a street-level walk at all.
Getting to Shabu Sai NEX
From Serangoon MRT (stations NE12/CC13), follow signs into NEX and head to Level 3, unit #03-07. If you’re coming by bus, the same applies — the bus interchange sits inside the mall’s lower level, so you can head up to Level 3 from there. Drivers have on-site parking within NEX itself, which is more straightforward here than at some of the more built-up city outlets.
A Good Pick for Family Outings
NEX has a rooftop feature called SkyGarden — a children’s playground with both dry and wet play areas. If you’re dining with kids, this is a genuine reason to pick this outlet over one further from home: you can let them run around on the roof before or after the meal without needing to travel to a separate location. The mall also has a public library and a 24-hour supermarket in the same building, which makes it easy to combine a hotpot dinner with other errands in one trip.
What’s on the Buffet at Shabu Sai NEX
Like other Shabu Sai outlets, this one runs a build-your-own hotpot buffet with a choice of soup bases, meats, seafood, vegetables, and noodles. If you’re feeding a family or a larger group, a few menu picks worth knowing about:
