If you're thinking of hosting a weekend BBQ party at CSC Loyang Chalet, planning ahead is key! This popular spot is always in high demand, especially on weekends. Here’s everything you need to know to ensure your BBQ gathering is smooth, enjoyable, and stress-free—whether you’re going for a DIY BBQ setup or a fully planned BBQ event with a chef or assistant.
Step 1: Book a Chalet Near the Entrance 🚪🚗
One of the biggest challenges of CSC Loyang Chalet during peak periods is parking.
✔ Limited parking spaces inside – On weekends, the internal parking lots fill up fast.
✔ Guests may have to park outside – This means walking all the way in from the public car park, which can be tiring, especially for families with young kids.
✔ Solution? Book a chalet near the entrance – This saves your guests the trouble of a long walk, making the experience much more convenient.
If you’re expecting elderly guests, young children, or guests carrying lots of BBQ supplies, this tip alone can make a huge difference.
Step 2: Decide on Your BBQ Setup 🔥🍢
Now that your chalet is booked, the next step is choosing the right BBQ setup. You have two main options:
Option 1: DIY BBQ Setup
For those who love to grill, a DIY BBQ is a great way to enjoy the experience. But you’ll need to come prepared with the right equipment and supplies.
🔹 BBQ Pit Essentials: Charcoal, wire mesh, firestarter, lighter, and fan/blower
🔹 Grilling Tools: Metal tongs (for cooking) + plastic tongs (for serving)
🔹 Serving Needs: Plates, utensils, napkins, and a large trash bag for easy cleanup
🔹 Ice Box & Chiller: Keep drinks cold and seafood fresh
Food-wise, we recommend preparing a mix of meats, seafood, vegetables, and carbs for a balanced spread. For a premium experience, you can order Shiok BBQ’s in-house marinated meats & seafood—which are prepped and ready to grill with zero hassle.
Option 2: One-Stop BBQ with BBQ Assistant or Chef 👨🍳🔥
If you want to truly relax and enjoy the party without worrying about grilling, a BBQ assistant or chef live station is the way to go.
✔ Hassle-free setup & cleanup – We take care of the grilling, so you can mingle with guests.
✔ Food served piping hot – No pre-cooked or lukewarm BBQ; everything is grilled fresh on-site.
✔ More premium experience – Perfect for corporate events or milestone celebrations where you want a next-level BBQ experience.
This option is great for hosts who want to enjoy the party without the stress of cooking.
Step 3: Plan Your BBQ Menu 🍽️🔥
A good BBQ menu isn’t just about piling on meats—it’s about balance.
Recommended Menu for a Well-Rounded BBQ
🥩 Meats – Wagyu steak, marinated chicken thigh, short ribs
🦞 Seafood – Live frozen lobsters, half-shell scallops, tiger prawns
🥗 Vegetables – Grilled broccoli, mushrooms, bell peppers
🍚 Carbs – Crab meat XO fried rice or garlic bread
If you’re doing DIY BBQ, be sure to marinate meats in advance or order Shiok BBQ’s pre-marinated meats & seafood for the best flavors without the hassle.
Step 4: Think About the Weather & Backup Plans 🌦️🏠
Singapore’s weather can be unpredictable, and CSC Loyang Chalet is no exception.
✔ Sheltered BBQ Pits: Some chalets have sheltered areas, but not all—check your unit before booking.
✔ Backup Plan: If rain is expected, indoor dining setups with pre-cooked food may be needed.
✔ Extra Tent/Canopy: If you have an outdoor BBQ pit, consider bringing a pop-up canopy just in case.
Nobody wants to deal with last-minute scrambling because of rain, so having a plan B is always a good idea.
Step 5: Logistics & Getting There 🚚📦
To make sure everything runs smoothly on BBQ day, here’s what to keep in mind:
✔ Transport & Unloading: If your BBQ setup involves bulky items, arrange for early unloading at your chalet.
✔ Food Delivery Timing: If you’re ordering from Shiok BBQ, choose a delivery slot that aligns with your BBQ start time so everything stays fresh.
✔ Final Checklist Before You Start Grilling: Double-check charcoal supply, utensils, and drinks—no one wants to run out of essentials mid-BBQ!
