Auntie starts dancing after lighting chicken on fire at House of Seafood
A customer captured the House of Seafood auntie’s quirky dance moves in a TikTok video on Saturday (27 Jan).
At the time, user @charlieangel28657 was dining at the seafood eatery in Punggol with a group of friends.

Upon ordering the Dancing Fire Chicken, a woman came out with a whole chicken on a skewer and proceeded to light it on fire.
Everything appeared to be business as usual as she explained how she was preparing the chicken, step by step.

This initially led to confusion among the customer and her friends, who collectively let out a ‘huh’ behind the camera.
An unseen voice could also be heard saying: “Oh she’s the one dancing, I thought it would be the chicken dancing.”
The dancing went on for about a minute and was met with enthusiastic applause by the customer and her friends.
Dancing Fire Chicken performance dates back to 2018
While the dancing went viral recently, this is far from the auntie’s first brush with fame.
Videos of her performing while serving the Dancing Fire Chicken have been circulating online since 2018, which was when things kicked off.
According to The Straits Times (ST), the dance came about organically when the eatery’s owner, Mr Francis Ng, decided to play music whenever the dish was served.
Although he did not require his staff to dance along to it, the auntie in question — Madam Loh Feng Ling — did so of her own free will.
At the time, the now 58-year-old described herself as “just an auntie who loves to dance and gao xiao or make people laugh.”
She also revealed that she learned how to dance from working in a karaoke joint when she was younger.
So embedded in her spirit was dancing, that she would naturally move to the beat no matter what kind of music was playing.
After her dancing went viral that year, the owner rewarded her with an angbao or red packet.
He quipped that the reward inspired other waitstaff to dance as well.
