Keng Eng Kee (KEK) Seafood has opened their third outlet at SAFRA Punggol with a unique “outdoor” dining experience that would certainly delight all fellow Singaporeans. Indulge in incredible outlet-exclusive dishes surrounded by familiar icons of Singapore’s urban landscapes such as an ERP gantry, an MRT station, a 1980s bus stop, and a unique mural!
KEK Seafood Opens Their Third Outlet At SAFRA Punggol
The third-generation-run restaurant’s newest 160-seater outlet celebrates Singapore’s development over the years, showcasing iconic elements of the urban landscape within the restaurant.
Diners can look forward to these nostalgic designs:
- An entrance designed after Punggol’s MRT platform
- Tarmac floors painted with paint and signage
- Standing 1980s bus stop and ERP sign
- Iconic road sign menu board
- An eye-catching expressway tunnel with its signature arrow lighting
- A canopy adorned with hanging solitary lightbulbs, a throwback to a sight commonplace in early apartments in Singapore
Embark on a journey back in time through Singapore’s past with a mural featuring scenes of children playing on the grounds of the iconic Dragon Playground. The mural, created by local artists Sufian Hamri (also known as “TraseOne”) and Tiffany Yao, showcases traditional childhood games like marbles and hopscotch, along with vibrant Peranakan Shophouses.
What’s On The Menu: New Punggol-Outlet Exclusive Dishes
1. Grilled Assorted Seafood ($32.80)
Look forward to exclusive dishes at KEK Seafood SAFRA Punggol, including the Grilled Assorted Seafood. This seafood galore features a medley of fresh tiger prawns, clams, mushrooms, and vermicelli, complemented by their signature homemade sauce.
The dish is further elevated as diners can add rice onto the sizzling platter, allowing it to absorb the flavourful sauce for an explosion of flavour with each bite.
2. Otah Charcoal Fried Dough Fritters with Salad ($16.80)
Showcasing KEK Seafood’s culinary innovation, this unique dish reimagines the beloved local otah by pairing it with crisp charcoal-fried dough fritters. The creaminess of the otah provides a satisfying contrast to the crunch of the fried dough, while a refreshing salad adds a burst of crispness, tying together a harmonious blend of textures and flavours.
3. Sizzling Claypot Moonlight Horfun ($15.80)
KEK Seafood introduces a captivating twist to their renowned Signature Moonlight Horfun with the addition of the Sizzling Claypot Moonlight Horfun. Bringing an aromatic smokiness to the dish, diners will be brought on a delightful textural adventure with the seafood horfun served with Chinese sausages, prawns, and sliced fish. Topped with a moon-like “raw egg” for extra creaminess, remember to scrape the bottom of the claypot for the extra crispy bits.
4. Cereal Hae Bee Hiam Fried Ice Cream ($8.80/2pcs)
For a sweet conclusion to the meal, indulge in the sweet-savoury combination of the Cereal Hae Bee Hiam Fried Ice Cream. Blending the sweet and umami flavours of ice cream and hae bee hiam, it is then encased in fried golden-brown shells for an extra touch of crispiness.
Signature Classics That Are A Must-Try
1. Coffee Pork Ribs ($15.80)
Among KEK Seafood’s signatures, the Coffee Pork Ribs stand out as a crowd favourite. Succulent pork ribs are marinated in a savoury caramelized coffee sauce, stir-fried to perfection, and sprinkled with sesame seeds. This dish has gained international recognition in various gourmet events, even earning a mention in the 2016 Michelin Guide Singapore.
Other must-try classics include the Marmite Chicken, KEK Curry Sliced Pork ($18.80), and the Claypot Pig Liver ($21.80).
Adding to their long list of accolades, KEK Seafood has been featured on Netflix’s Streetfood: Asia, CNN’s Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown, and the MakanSutraFood Guide 2020. They have also been awarded the Michelin Plate status from 2016-2023, clinched The World’s 50 Best Restaurants’ Essence of Asia 2021, and named in the Top 50 World Street Food Masters 2017.
