Keeping the near 100-year-old recipe alive - legendary Nan Hwa Chong Fish Head Steamboat since 1927
updated
👨🍳 Run by Mr Toh, this legendary stall grills up satay like no other — chicken, beef, mutton, pork, even prawn — all kissed by charcoal flames and served with a creamy peanut sauce that’s pure umami heaven.
🍗 And the wings? Marinated in a secret spice blend, BBQ-ed till the skin crackles, and the inside stays juicy. Dip it in tangy chilli or eat it straight — either way, it’s 🔥🔥🔥.
💬 Locals love it. Tourists crave it. And now, even Bill Gates has tasted the magic.
🕒 Open daily 3pm–11:30pm (Closed Tuesdays)
📍 Stall #01-33, Newton Food Centre, Singapore 22949
Founded in 1933 by Ho Ah Tong, Ming Chung began as a humble eatery serving Heng Hwa and Hokkien immigrants near Sungei Road’s “Thieves Market.” Over the decades, it became a beloved institution, known for its seafood-rich, home-style Putian dishes. Now, with Ming Chung approaching its 100th year, Nicholas is making history again—White Lor Mee is the first neighbourhood stall to bring these nostalgic flavours even closer to the public.
Signature dishes include silky Heng Hwa bee hoon, wok-tossed white lor mee brimming with prawns, squid, clams, and pork, and crispy prawn rolls paired with tangy Nonya achar. The bee hoon is cooked till translucent and springy, absorbing the umami-rich broth. The lor mee swaps dark sauce for a light, savoury gravy that’s comforting and clean.
Affordable, authentic, and steeped in legacy, White Lor Mee is more than a hawker stall—it’s a living tribute to tradition.

When Li Er’s father prepared to retire, she stepped up—not just to preserve his recipes, but to evolve them. With zero F&B experience, she and Clement trained under her parents for a year before opening their own stall—just across from her family’s. From sesame chicken with a veggie twist to pork trotter vinegar with a nostalgic ginger punch, every dish is a tribute to heritage and hustle. Their salted egg chicken cutlet? Crispy, creamy, and a Gen Z favourite. And the ginger-onion fish? Comfort in every bite

Sultan Kebab, 2 years into Maxwell Food Centre and brought the heat with it. Run solo by Mr Erdogan, this hawker stall serves up wraps, tombik, pide, falafel, and the mighty Iskender Kebab. Prices range slightly steeper than nearby stalls, but still a steal compared to Arab Street.
🔥 What to try:
• Chicken Kebab Wrap : Crispy tortilla packed with juicy chicken, crunchy veg, and tangy yogurt.
• Iskender Kebab : A mountain of rotisserie chicken over saucy bread, topped with yogurt. Big enough to share!
• Shakshuka with Cheese : Rich tomato, gooey cheese, and eggs—like pizza in a bowl, though portion’s a tad small.
Every dish is made fresh, right before your eyes. Mr Erdogan grills, slices, and serves with heart. The Kunefe dessert? Crunchy, cheesy, syrupy bliss topped with pistachios 😇

Begin your day in one of Singapore’s most storied neighbourhoods, where heritage hawker stalls quietly prepare soulful breakfasts as the city sleeps. We’re spotlighting two second-generation gems that prove old-school flavours never go out of style:
🍽️ Chinatown Cooked Food (#02-69)
Led by the warm and resilient Mdm Tan, lovingly known as Laksa Po, this stall predates the current Chinatown Complex.
- 🕒 She arrives at 3am, running a one-woman show — prepping, cooking, serving, and cleaning all on her own.
- 🧓 Now 80 years old, Mdm Tan serves fried bee hoon/mee with egg and handmade niang tofu — her signature dried bean skin is the final handcrafted remnant of her famed wartime laksa.
- Her original laksa, once served with only fish balls and bean curd, carried the essence of simplicity and coconut-rich comfort.
🍜 Woo Ji Cooked Food (#02-056)
Expect a bustling queue by 6:30am, and for good reason:
- 🦐 Prawn noodles: Subtly sweet and peppery broth, served with delicate yet meaty prawn slices.
- 🌶️ Laksa: Spicy and bold, brimming with taopok, fried wontons, yong tau foo, and dried shrimp — a real wake-up call in a bowl.
- 💸 All dishes start at just $2.50, making this one of the best breakfast bargains in town.
📍 Location: Chinatown Complex Market & Food Centre, 335 Smith Street, Singapore 050335

🍜✨ What to order:
- Herbal Braised Duck Noodle / Rice – Tender duck slices in a fragrant broth laced with nostalgic herbal warmth.

I've incorporated the new additions with a seamless flow—let me know if you'd like any tweaks! 🚀
While Singapore boasts a wide array of local dishes, Satay Beehoon often flies under the radar. With its origins said to be linked to the Teochews, this dish is an undeniable testament to Singapore’s cross-cultural culinary heritage.
In this video, we go behind the scenes at Soon Huat’s central kitchen, capturing the tedious preparation of the satay sauce with the Lim family, who have mastered this craft over the years. Each bowl is packed with cuttlefish, tau pok, pork slices, kang kong, bean sprouts, cockles, and pork liver, all drenched in rich, nutty satay sauce. The process is labor-intensive, with the sauce alone requiring hours of roasting, crushing, and frying to achieve its signature aroma and texture.
If you want to experience an authentic plate of Satay Beehoon, Soon Huat Teochew Satay Beehoon (顺发潮州沙爹米粉) is a long-standing favorite that has served locals for generations. As one of the few hawkers left in ABC Food Centre that relocated from Havelock (乌桥头), this stall showcases accolades earned over the years, including visits from well-known personalities.
Beyond Satay Beehoon, don’t miss out on another must-try dish—Cuttlefish Kang Kong! This refreshing delight combines tender cuttlefish with crunchy kang kong, drizzled with a savory, tangy sauce that enhances the flavors beautifully. It’s a perfect complement to the rich satay sauce, offering a balance of textures and tastes that make for a satisfying meal.

Founded in the 1960s at Teochew Street in Clarke Quay, this braised duck noodle stall first served Singapore’s hardworking coolies and workers. Later, Ms Ngern Kah Cheng brought it to Tanglin Halt Market, one of Singapore’s earliest townships, before moving to its present hawker center location.
🥣 Every night at midnight, Ms Ngern starts the meticulous 5-hour braising process to perfect his Teochew-style duck before opening shop at 5:30AM. By 10AM, everything is sold out! That’s dedication.
🔥 Pick your noodle— kway teow or yellow noodles, —and toss it in a spicy, fragrant chili-braising sauce mix. Deboned duck slices, chewy gizzard surprises, and a comforting herbal soup complete the experience.
People queue early, and some even return for soup refills. If you want authentic hawker heritage, this is the place.
