If there’s one thing Singapore students know how to do well—besides acing exams and juggling packed schedules—it’s sniffing out a good deal. And now, there’s one dining offer that’s practically made for them. It’s time to fire up your lunch or dinner plans because Yakiniku Like at The Cathay has rolled out a student-exclusive promotion that’s as tasty as it is affordable.
What’s the Deal?
Starting from 24 April 2025, Yakiniku Like at The Cathay is offering their signature grilled meat sets starting from just $10.90 nett—and yes, that’s for 200g of their famed meat. Whether it’s a study break, a post-lecture treat, or just a craving for sizzling good food, this is one promotion that’s hard to ignore.
The best part? This isn’t restricted to weekdays only. This student deal is available all day, every day—Monday through Sunday—including public holidays and their eves. For those constantly buried in books or running between CCA commitments, this flexibility is a huge bonus.
Let’s not forget the value. In a city where dining out can quickly burn a hole in a student’s wallet, a $10.90 meal offering high-quality grilled meat is practically a steal. And when it’s from a well-loved brand like Yakiniku Like, there’s really not much to think about. Just head down and eat.
Why They Shouldn’t Miss This
For students in Singapore, finding a filling, affordable meal that doesn’t compromise on taste is often a balancing act. Cafeterias and food courts serve their purpose, but sometimes, the soul just craves a sit-down experience with proper food—think smokey grilled meat and a satisfying portion size. That’s where Yakiniku Like’s student deal becomes a standout.
This is not your typical fast-food promo. Yakiniku Like specialises in Japanese-style barbecue, where each person grills their own food at a smokeless grill right at the table. It’s a fun, interactive experience that adds a whole new level of enjoyment to your meal. And it’s not just about the novelty—it’s about quality ingredients, precision cooking, and the satisfaction of a hot, custom-grilled dish served just the way you like it.
The fact that students can enjoy this experience without breaking the bank makes it all the more appealing. There’s also something special about being able to unwind over a nice meal with friends or alone after a long day of lectures. At The Cathay outlet, the vibe is modern, relaxed, and designed for comfort—just what you’d want when treating yourself to a casual yet satisfying meal.
A Quick Introduction to Yakiniku Like
For those new to the brand, Yakiniku Like is a renowned Japanese BBQ chain with a simple but brilliant concept—good meat, fast service, and value for money. They’ve won hearts across Asia with their high-quality meats and customisable solo-dining experience. In a city that loves its food, it’s no surprise that they’ve built a loyal following in Singapore as well.
At the core of their concept is efficiency without compromise—you can expect your order to arrive within minutes, neatly prepared for grilling at your individual table. It’s perfect for solo diners, casual meet-ups, or even study breaks that require a proper meal.
Why The Cathay?
Another reason this promotion is especially tempting? It’s exclusive to Yakiniku Like’s outlet at The Cathay. For students in the Dhoby Ghaut area, this is as convenient as it gets. Whether you’re from SMU, NAFA, Lasalle, or one of the nearby junior colleges, The Cathay is just a short walk away.
This central location means that you’re not only close to campus but also surrounded by all the other perks of being in town. Catch a film, head to the bookstore, do some quick shopping, or just hang out in the area before or after your meal. It’s the kind of mini-outing that doesn’t need to cost a fortune but still feels like a treat.
What to Expect on the Menu
While the highlight here is the 200g set for $10.90, Yakiniku Like offers a range of other set options if you’re feeling extra hungry or want to try something a bit more premium. There are pork, chicken, and beef options, plus add-ons like rice, miso soup, and side dishes. Students are allowed one set per valid student pass, so bring that along to enjoy the deal.
And since this is a proper Japanese BBQ, expect well-marbled slices of meat, dipping sauces to suit your taste, and a grill station that makes the whole dining experience more interactive. It’s a fun, budget-friendly way to satisfy a meat craving without skimping on flavour or quality.
Great Deal, Limited Conditions
It’s worth noting that this student deal is strictly for dine-in customers and limited to one set per student. You’ll need to flash a valid student pass when ordering—so no pass, no deal. It’s also available only at The Cathay outlet, so don’t head to other branches expecting the same promotion.
That said, there aren’t too many strings attached. There’s no odd time slot restriction, no need to dine in groups, and no exclusion on weekends or public holidays. It’s a straightforward, generous offer that actually fits into a student’s lifestyle.
Final Thoughts
For students looking to eat well without overspending, Yakiniku Like’s promotion at The Cathay is one of those rare finds—affordable, delicious, and totally convenient. Whether you’re a regular meat lover or someone curious about Japanese BBQ, this is your sign to give it a try.
They don’t just serve food; they offer a whole dining experience. And when that experience is made this accessible for students, it’s well worth taking advantage of. So gather your mates, grab your student ID, and treat yourself to a proper meal that doesn’t cost more than your daily coffee habit.
With prices like these and quality like theirs, it’s a dining deal that speaks directly to what students need—great food, minimal fuss, and real value.
