This chain of suancaiyu shops from Shenzhen has opened a little stall at the basement food court at HDB Hub (480 Toa Payoh Lorong 6 #B1-01, 9861-0696). He has a variety of different styles, including mala, tomato, and even Thai. But I wanted the suancai version. It turned out to be more tangy (read: sweet) than I was expecting, but this bowl of beef, potato slices, bean sprouts, and kelp was still fun to eat, especially since he finished it off with dried chili peppers sitting in sizzling hot oil. Note that the #1 "New Style" at the top of the menu is watered down for overseas diners; get the #4 instead, as that one is full strength for mainland palates.
