10 Must Try Local Eats with Michelin Bib Gourmand Awards!
1. Balestier Road Hoover Rojak
Rojak, in Malay means “eclectic mix”. Whether to call it a local spin of salad or a fruit salad is up to you, but its addictive sauce and fresh ingredients make for a very mouth-watering experience! While there is an Indian version of Rojak, Hoover Rojak serves the Chinese version, which is different! You will find some unique ingredients in it such as jellyfish, century egg, and bunga kantan (torch ginger flower buds).
Location: Block 90 Whampoa Drive, Whampoa Makan Place #01-06
Opening Hours: Wed – Sun: 10.30am – 4pm, closed on Mondays and Tuesdays
2. Muthu’s Curry
If you’re looking for a place to have piping hot fish head curry, head over to Muthu’s Curry! Their special (and secret) recipe is a unique blend of spices that only the current owners know of. So rest assured, you will definitely find that it has a taste like no other.
Location: 138 Race Course Rd, #01-01, S218591
Opening Hours: 10.30am – 10.30pm, Daily
3. Chey Sua Carrot Cake
Chey Sua Carrot Cake only has white carrot cake, so if you’re #team black carrot cake, it’s time to try something new! Other than their distinct flat shape being different from other carrot cake stalls, they actually use carrots and not radish. Even their chilli is handmade!
Location: Blk 127, Toa Payoh Lor 1, #02-30
Opening Hours: Tues – Sun: 6am – 1pm, Closed on Mondays
4. Famous Sungei Road Trishaw Laksa
Famous Sungei Road Trishaw Laksa has received the Michelin Bib Gourmand award 3 years in a row! If that’s not a good enough reason to make you want to visit it, I’m not sure what is. Laksa is definitely comfort food. It being paired with so many fresh and delicious ingredients just adds to the “wow” factor!
Location: 531A Upper Cross St, #02-66 Hong Lim Food Centre, Singapore 051531

5. Hoo Kee Bak Chang
Who says this dish can only be eaten during Dumpling Festival? Sometimes you’ll just crave the sticky, indulgent goodness of Bak Chang, and what better place to have it other than Hoo Kee Bak Chang? They only use lean pork in their dumplings and the glutinous rice is very soft & nicely flavoured!
Location: 7 Maxwell Road, Amoy Street Food Centre #01-18
Opening Hours: Mon – Sat: 10am to 4pm, closed on Sundays and Public Holidays
6. Lao Fu Zi Fried Kway Teow
Are we wrong to say Fried Kway Teow is everyone’s guilty pleasure? Well then, do we have good news for you: both the black or white versions can be found at Lau Fu Zi’s Fried Kway Teow! Each bowl is cooked-to-order and fried individually. Their noodles are surprisingly not as oily as many other stalls, but if you prefer a stronger flavour, it is definitely recommended you get the black one!
Location: 51 Old Airport Rd, #01-12, S390051
Opening Hours: Mon – Fri, alternate Saturdays: 11am – 10pm, closed on Sundays
7. Rolina Singapore Traditional Hainanese Curry Puff
You might be wondering what makes Hainanese curry puffs so special. The difference is, they use rempah chilli paste, or as the owner calls it, ‘Baba-style’ chilli paste, in its filling. The rempah that Rolina uses is made fresh every single day! You’ll find that Hainanese curry puffs are also thinner, as the focus is on the filling.
Location: Tanjong Pagar Plaza Market and Food Centre, 6 Tanjong Pagar Plaza, #02-15, Singapore 081006
Opening Hours: 9am – 2pm, Daily
8. Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice
Did you really think we weren’t going to include a chicken rice dish in a local hawker listing? Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice is sure to make your mouth water. You’ll find that their chicken is exceptionally tender and juicy, making it highly addictive. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!
Location: 1 Kadayanallur Street, Maxwell Food Centre #01-10/11
Opening Hours: Tues – Sun: 10am – 8pm, closed on Mondays
9. Eminent Frog Porridge & Seafood
Ah, frog porridge. Although it is a common supper dish, there are some who get frightened by the word “frog”. However, you’ll find that just one bite of Eminent’s Frog Porridge will send you straight to food heaven! The rich, umami sauce that is paired with the frog dish makes it a perfect match with plain porridge! It’s something you definitely must try.
Location: 323 Geylang Rd S389359
Opening Hours: 4pm – 4am (Instagram)
10. Bismillah Biryani
Bismillah Biryani is popular for their signature Chicken Dum Biryani. Cooking all ingredients on flow flame = “Dum”. It is not your usual plate of orangey, oily Biryani (although that is also delicious), because the Chef strives to cook the least unhealthy meals possible.
Location: 50 Dunlop Street
Opening Hours: Wed – Mon: 11.30am – 9.30pm, closed on Tuesdays
