With a collection of standout hawkers combining tradition with creative updates, it’s a compelling destination for food lovers looking to try both local classics and global flavors under one roof. Here are 10 stalls worth your appetite, each delivering distinct character and skill.
1. Ah Tan Wings
Unit: #01-40
Opening Hours: 10:30 AM – 9 PM
Ah Tan Wings perfects har cheong gai (prawn paste chicken) through a two-day marination that allows rich fermented prawn flavor to fully infuse the meat. Double-frying creates an incredibly crisp shell that shatters to reveal juicy, well-seasoned chicken. The Atas Wing Meal pairs this with aromatic rice, a sunny-side-up egg, and a sharp house-made chili for contrast. Each plate showcases technique honed to satisfying precision.
2. Nasi Lemak Ayam Taliwang
Unit: #01-33
Opening Hours: 6:30 AM – 7 PM (Closed on Mondays)
Fusing Malaysian and Indonesian influences, this stall brings together fragrant coconut rice and fiery grilled chicken thigh. The ayam taliwang is marinated in chili, shallots, and tamarind, resulting in layers of smoky, spicy complexity. A sweet sambal and another sharp chili blend flank the dish, heightening every bite. The tender chicken and rich rice hit every craving at once.
3. Munchi Delights
Unit: #01-43
Opening Hours: 8 AM – 8:30 PM
Munchi Delights reinvents min chiang kueh with flavored pancakes and bold fillings. Choose from matcha or charcoal pancake skins filled with Belgian Chocolate, Peanut, or Strawberry Cheese. Each pancake balances chew and crisp edges, delivering texture along with decadent flavor. It’s a satisfying closer or a sweet snack between savory stops.
4. Smokin’ Joe
Unit: #01-37
Opening Hours: 12 PM – 9 PM (Closed on Mondays)
Smokin’ Joe runs its stall with restaurant-level execution, led by a chef with professional experience. Using a Josper charcoal oven, meats take on a deep smokiness and tender char. The Wagyu and lamb racks are grilled just enough to retain their juices and develop rich crusts. Fries and sides are not afterthoughts—they’re built to complement the main event.
5. Ah Lock Tofu
Unit: #01-08
Opening Hours: 11:30 AM – 7:30 PM (Closed on Mondays)
Ah Lock Tofu modernizes Hakka cuisine while staying true to its roots. The signature bowl includes handmade tofu and taupok stuffed with savory minced pork belly, all deep-fried until golden. Served over short-grain rice and greens like long beans and manicai, the dish echoes lei cha but with a more approachable structure. Every bite brings crunch, comfort, and balance.
6. Jiao Cai Hotplate BBQ
Unit: #01-39
Opening Hours: 12 PM – 9 PM
This second-generation hawker continues the family legacy of BBQ sambal seafood with expertise. Their stingray is fresh, thick-cut, and grilled to flake-off-the-cartilage perfection. A signature sambal brings intense heat without masking the sweetness of the seafood. Hotplate presentation keeps dishes sizzling and fragrant all the way through.
7. 838 Beef Noodles
Unit: #01-42
Opening Hours: 12 PM – 2:30 PM, 5 PM – 8:30 PM (Closed on Tuesdays)
838 Beef Noodles delivers authentic Hainanese beef noodles that have quickly built a fanbase.

A side of cincalok provides a punchy, fermented kick.
8. One Mouth Noodle
Unit: #01-12
Opening Hours: 11 AM – 8:30 PM (Closed on Mondays)
One Mouth Noodle hand-makes their egg noodles on site—a rarity these days. Springy and al dente, they serve as the base for char siew that’s charred and juicy, and wantons filled with fresh shrimp. The broth, made from dried seafood, is complex and satisfying. This stall embodies detail and dedication from start to finish.
9. Xin Long Xing
Unit: #01-28/29
Opening Hours: 11:30 AM – 2:45 PM, 4:15 PM – 9:30 PM
Xin Long Xing specializes in wok-fried comfort food with a soup base that simmers for over 10 hours. Their white bee hoon stands out for its silky broth and full-bodied flavor. The Chilli Crab Crayfish Hor Fun brings a bold twist, combining hor fun with juicy crayfish and a sauce rich with egg and sweetness. A bold take on classics with generous seafood portions.
10. Bismi Biryani
Unit: #01-05
Opening Hours: 11 AM – 8 PM
Bismi Biryani delivers Indian cuisine meant for sharing, built around large-format rice platters.
