Good Chance Popiah Eating House

Food is really sumptuous! Definitely must eat the Popiah which is moist and filling — 1 portion is never enough! Love the prawn paste chicken as well, very flavourful and crispy! On top of that, the service was warm and attentive, which made the meal even better. Will be back to eat more dishes 🤤

I visited Good Chance Popiah today and had an interesting experience! The DIY popiah was a highlight—it's really fun to make your own rolls and customize them just the way you like.However, I did find that the prices for other food items were on the higher side. For instance, the oyster omelette we ordered cost $19 before tax, and in total, we ended up paying around $61 for just two dishes: the popiah and the oyster omelette. While the omelette came with a generous amount, I personally preferred it to be less overcooked.On a positive note, the service was excellent! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who enjoys the popiah experience. It’s a great option for family gatherings, as making your own popiah can be a lot of fun!

For someone who loves popiah, this place has one of the best popiah! Everything was homemade, having 7 different types of vegetables in it. Everything was fresh and service was excellent 🤩. The store gave me nostalgic vibes, super homely. The boss and staffs were all super friendly and catered to our needs.

All dishes is very nice, taste is good too 1) Pork trotter bee hoon 2)Treadfin fish head with Chinese cabbage with yam soup 3) Har cheong chicken 4) Salted egg crayfish 5) Stir fry mian xian 6) Braised pork belly and pumpkin bun

Tried Hao Cai Popiah and was really impressed! The signature kueh pie tee is crispy and packed with fresh, tasty fillings — especially good with their prawn paste chicken wings and ngoh hiang. The Hokkien mee with crispy pork lard is full of wok hei and super satisfying.Don’t miss the yam paste dessert — smooth, not too sweet, and a lovely traditional finish to the meal.Friendly service and great local flavors. Definitely worth a visit!

Fine dining bento at reasonable prices! We have so loved Good Chance over the years, not just for popiah but for their authentic hokkien dishes - our favourites: Ah Gong Vermicelli, Fish Maw Soup, Fried Prawn Dumpling, Fried Garlic KaiLan, Sweet Sour Pork etc Had a home dinner party for 10pax but not enough space to move around for mini-buffet catering. Tried my luck & asked boss for a bento, he customized to fit my budget - an impressive spread of dishes exquisitely laid out in a bento box. See how the Prawn Dumpling had a sweet sauce in a dropper ‘injected’ into the dumpling? It was paired with a homemade pickle. The elegant Jade Tofu came in a yummy seafood+mushroom sauce. Some of us were conquered by the super strong chilli for the Fried Vermicelli. Bentos came in warmer bags, had my guests gushing like mad - thank you, Good Chance!

I really enjoyed the popiah here — the skin is super thin and soft, and it’s packed with generous, flavorful fillings. You can really taste the freshness in every bite. The other dishes we tried were also delicious. Definitely a great spot for local snacks!

I had a great experience here! The popiah is really tasty, and I love how you can roll it yourself. It's a fun touch that makes it even better. The main courses are delicious, with generous portions that are perfect for sharing. Prices are very affordable, making it a great spot for family gatherings. Highly recommended!

In one word "Disappointing!" Popiah stuffing was not at all flavourful. The garnishing for popiah - too small lettuce leaves, dried up coriander leaves, half dead brownish bean sprouts, Chilli was not bad though and there was ginger. Popiah skins - must have been left on plates without wet cloths covering them as they were a bit stiff. Neither was there much flavour in the prawn roll or the vermicelli with pig's trotters. They were so good before when they were at Telok Ayer Street. Wonder what happened to them.

This Hokkien restaurant has been around for more than 30 years and one of the famous dish that appears on every single table is the Popiah. What could be more fun that making our own popiah from the piping hot claypot that is served within five minutes after the table is laid with all the other ingredients. Optional condiments like the sweet Chinese sausages can be ordered starting at $4 for a small plate. Priced at $18 for 6 skins, the pot provides more than enough fillings unless you stuffed each of the skin to its maximum. We had no problem finishing this pot just by itself because the julienned bang kwang topped with mini dried prawns were juicy and fragrant. The popiah skin is resilient enough to withstand the excess moisture, though we encountered several failed attempts to transport our masterpieces into our mouth without breaking the skin. The stir-fried baby kalian ($10) that boasts a vibrant fresh shade of green, are crunchy yet permeated with the breath of wok hei. The stewed pork is yet another rich and delicious braised dish that comes with the standard white buns ($16). The bonus slices of yam escaped the humdrum of a typical stew pork bun that is stuffed only with lettuce leaf. The Fish Head and Yam soup ($16 for small) did not look inviting but received praises from the tables for its wholesome flavours. The slurry broth is furnished with subtle sweetness from the napa cabbage and yam. And the deep-fried slices of fish were meaty and delivered comforting aroma that would be impossible if they had not brush encounter with bubbling oil. But the star of the night is none other than the Pig Trotters Bee Hoon ($14 for small). One can relish in the homemade goodness of this dish that is moist but not too wet. Napa cabbage, mushrooms, bean sprouts, bits of eggs and crunchy shrimps bolster the flavours of this dish. Everyone was obsessed with this dish despite being stuffed to the brim with the earlier dishes. This is a reliable restaurant that you can count on for some wonderful heritage dishes. Just remember to place a reservation in advance especially during weekends if you do not wish to join in the queue.

A good chance... Not well taken Good chance has been a favourite for not only Popiah but Hokkien food for many many years. One search on Google for the best Popiah in Singapore and Good Chance's name will definitely be on a list somewhere. I've had a few chances to try their popiahs so far but strangely never at their restaurant. The first time I had it was when the GF's mom ordered in for CNY (I know.. Crazy expensive but oh well....). The second time was at the Heritage Fest's "A Taste of Heritage" at The National Museum. Both times I thought that it was pretty good Popiah. The Bangkuang was sweet and succulent with the carrots adding an additional sweet essence to it while the skin was not too thick and really tasty. Oh... And the Chilli gave quite a kick too. So with the Gf and family being in the mood for Popiah, I couldn't be more excited when we decided to head over to their restaurant! Taking a quick glance through the menu, we decided to go for the set menu for 4. Do note that this could easily serve 5-6 if you're group does not have big eaters. 4 Pax Set Meal ($108.00) Good Chance Popiah. The star! The signature dish! The the the.... Let down. What happened to the Bangkuang?! What happened to that sweet, yummy filling I had at home and at National Museum? While it was still tender and juicy, it lacked all the natural sweetness of the ingredients that should have come from the Bangkuang, carrots, cabbage, bamboo shoots, shrimp etc and it tasted a little... Diluted. While the chilli still packed a punch and the Popiah skin still thin and yummy, the sweet sauce was clearly diluted as compared to the one that came with the Home Made Prawn Roll. Fish Maw Soup This turned out to be the star of the set meal for me. It was tasty, generous with fish maw and crab meat and it wasn't over starched. One of the nicest, simple, fish maw soup I've had in a while. Cereal Prawn While the cereal was nice and not too oily, the prawn itself was..... Kinda tasteless. It was crunchy and a little sweet, it tasted a little like frozen prawns. Like the kind you find in fried rice. Baby Kailan While the way they fried it and the flavour of the seasoning was nice, the baby Kailan tasted a little old. That slight bitterness had started coming through the leaves but it was still a decently fried plate of Veges. Home-Made Prawn Roll I love my Prawn roles. Crispy, juicy, salty, sweet, dipped in a beautiful sweet sauce, the prawn roll is one of those many comfort dishes. This one however was a little disappointing. No much flavour, not much texture. Tasted almost like my first attempt at making wanton, where you add a whole load of seasoning, only to cook it and wonder where all that seasoning went. Certainly not a favourite. Fried Vermicelli This would definitely be the biggest disappointment of our dinner. It looked good. Moist, full of ingredients (it was meant to be a seafood vermicelli) and it looked ready to erase my memory of the lousy seafood Beehoon I had yesterday (Xing Lou Seafood White Bee Hoon). Unfortunately, it became my second seafood noodle disappointment in 2 days. While Xing Lou just tasted salty, the Vermicelli here tasted of absolute nothing. No seafood, no oil, no soya sauce, no salt.......Nothing. It just tasted like plain Vermicelli. Logan with Almond And Mango Jelly. Aka left over "stew". While there was Yam Paste and mango pudding on their main menu, we ended up with the ugly step sister. Fair enough, it was a refreshing end to dinner but you can't really get it wrong with canned longan and factory made jelly. Sadly I was quite disappointed with the overall food. While the staff were friendly enough and the waiting time for food is not long at all and the food all being served piping hot, the quality unfortunately wasn't up to par. There were a few dishes we like, a few we thought were just alright and a few we really didn't like. Overall with the service we'll give it a solid 3*. Food alone I'd give it 2.5*. Is success getting to its head? Maybe.... But a lot more needs to be done to ensure that this heritage restaurant continues surviving.

Good place for popiah - Hokkien style. It's all DIY so be prepared to get your hands dirty ! The popiah chili is absolutely spicy so be careful. The other highlight is the pig trotter noodles. I like the local feel to the place and the excellent foods
