Tucked in the lively Holland Village enclave, Holland Village Market & Food Centre at 1 Lorong Mambong is a compact but rewarding spot for great hawker fare. Recent renovations have improved the atmosphere with new tables and better ventilation, but the soul of the place lies in its lineup of dependable food stalls. Here’s a sharp breakdown of ten standout stalls you shouldn’t miss.
1. Holland V Fried Bee Hoon
Unit: #01-11
Opening Hours: 6 AM – 12:30 PM (Closed on Mondays and Wednesdays)
This stall serves one thing right — moist, fragrant fried bee hoon. It’s light but savoury, ideal with a sunny-side-up egg, cabbage, luncheon meat, and their iconic crispy chicken wing. The chili—fiery and tangy—is what binds it all together. It’s a go-to breakfast fix, but side dishes disappear quickly.
2. Ming Fa Fishball Noodles
Unit: #01-14
Opening Hours: 9 AM – 9 PM
Ming Fa dates back to 1946 and still delivers handmade fishballs using yellowtail fish paste. Their Fishball Noodles and Mushroom Minced Meat Noodles come generously portioned with al dente mee pok. The balance of chili, vinegar, and springy texture defines their bowls. Also look out for Fuzhou fishballs and meatball noodle options.
3. 363 Katong Laksa / Holland Village Nasi Lemak
Unit: #01-15
Opening Hours: 8:30 AM – 8 PM (Closed on Wednesdays)
This stall doubles up on crowd-pleasers: rich, spicy Katong Laksa and fragrant Nasi Lemak. Laksa fans will appreciate the creamy but well-balanced gravy, and the Premium version includes prawns and otah. The Nasi Lemak features fluffy coconut rice, crispy chicken wings, and punchy sambal, all wrapped into a satisfying plate.
4. Yu Ji Claypot and Stewed Soup
Unit: #01-29
Opening Hours: 11 AM – 9 PM (Closed on Wednesdays)
Yu Ji brings comfort food with serious depth. Their Traditional Claypot Rice includes chicken, lap cheong, and salted fish, cooked to order for crispy edges and wok hei. The Claypot Sesame Oil Chicken stands out for its aromatic sesame notes. Their soups—like ABC Pork Ribs and Old Cucumber—warm from the inside out.
5. Chang Sheng Western Food
Unit: #01-30
Opening Hours: 11 AM – 9:30 PM (Closed on Mondays)
Chang Sheng is classic Western fare done well: think giant Chicken Chops and Pork Chops grilled to tender perfection, served with fries or rice. Their Fish & Chips come in a shatter-crisp batter with tartar sauce on the side. Portions are large, and customisable options like mushroom cream spaghetti or tomato-based pasta keep regulars interested.
6. Xiang Ji Hainanese Chicken Rice, Porridge and Noodles
Unit: #01-22
Opening Hours: 10:30 AM – 8 PM
Their steamed and roasted chicken rice plates start at $4.50, with juicy meat and firm grains. Roasted delights such as char siew and crispy pork belly offer value-packed combinations. Their black soy sauce pairs better with roasted chicken than the intense chili. Stir-fried cabbage and egg round out the meal nicely.
7. Liang Ji Wanton Noodle
Unit: #01-18
Opening Hours: 8 AM – 8 PM
This stall stands out for its black sauce wanton mee, laced with crispy lard and served with both soup and fried wantons. The springy noodles carry the seasoning well, and extra fried wantons are encouraged. You can tweak your order with tomato sauce or chili-black sauce blends to match your taste.
8. Hui Wei Japanese Korean Cuisine
Unit: #01-16
Opening Hours: 10 AM – 9 PM
A dependable stop for value Japanese and Korean meals. Their BBQ Saba Fish Set and hotplate Bulgogi deliver strong flavour with rice and miso soup. Sets like Grilled Salmon and Chicken Katsu Don ($5–$7) make it ideal for filling lunches. Despite its variety, service is generally efficient.
9. Qian Jiao Bai Wei Ma La Xiang Guo
Unit: #01-31
Opening Hours: 9 AM – 9 PM (Closed on Mondays)
Build your own Mala pot with meats, mushrooms, and vegetables priced by weight. Ingredients like tofu skin and enoki mushrooms soak up the numbing, aromatic sauce without overwhelming the palate. The balance here is key—heat without chaos, spice without bitterness. It’s a popular pick for fans of bold flavours.
10. Mei Di Noodle Store
Unit: #01-12
Opening Hours: 9 AM – 8 PM
This stall makes a comforting bowl of Mushroom Minced Pork Noodles, packed with chewy noodles, earthy mushrooms, and savoury minced pork. They also serve a range of fishball and bak chor mee options. Described as “decently nice” by many, it’s a steady hand in a sea of choices.
