Car crashes into home-based dining business in Katong, believed to have self-skidded
No one was hurt in the incident, but damages were caused to the premises.
On October 18, a car crashed into a residential building in Katong, colliding with a portion of its outer wall. The property housed Liu Fu Si Fang Cai, a home-based dining business. Police arrived at the scene at 11:25 am and reported that the vehicle seemed to have self-skidded along Tembeling Road before striking the wall. Fortunately, nobody was injured in the incident. The 37-year-old driver is cooperating with the ongoing investigation.
Homeowner and chef Henry Lau was not present at the time of the crash. He was alerted by a neighbor around 11:28 am and then contacted his brother for assistance, as he was abroad. A video sent by his neighbor showed the car plowing into the wall and colliding with some trees. The damage included portions of the wall, landscaping, and a swing.
More significantly, the electrical meter was destroyed, raising concerns about the potential impact on his freezer and chiller. Initially, Lau held off on booking a customer for October 20 due to these worries, but subsequent checks confirmed that most of his electrical equipment was still operational. He expects no further disruption to his business unless new issues arise.
Liu Fu Si Fang Cai, established in 2018, operates under a monthly reservation-by-balloting system, offering Chinese food styled with Zichar.
