Old Airport Road Food Centre

Made a trip to Old Airport Food Market for the kway chap, touted by many to be the best. I was actually introduced to it a little more than two years ago as my favourite place for this food was in Jurong West. There was a snaking queue when I arrived and I almost stood at the wrong queue because the lines of two other stalls seemed to intertwined each other. I got to order after about 30 minutes and asked for three-person serving x 2 plus eight bowls of kway. Damage $56/- but it's extremely worth it. Pity that the salted veg and peanuts sold out. 😔 The six of us began tucking in straightaway and our chopsticks went non-stop to and fro our bowls of kway and the plates of deliciously cut meat, tou kwa, offals, eggs etc. Each mouthful was a delight that instantly recharges the happiness level on an already relaxing TGIF. The food here does not have the "piggy" as compared to a lot of the other stalls in different places. There is no aftertaste as well. Left the place after lunchtime a very happy girl and the stall sold out before 2pm. 🤗 P.S The uncle has pasted a "time-table" on the days his stall opens and I have attached it here as well. Avoid going to visit the stall on the days that are striked off.

The Old Airport Food Center was my first taste of hawker center dining in Singapore. There were so many choices that i found it hard to choose the food I want to eat! We settled at the first stall and ate fish and i found a stall at the back that sold beef stew and xia long bao. The place is spacious and there were a lot of people and black birds! Tips: Save your spot near the entrance. Its breezy here with the giant fans. Avoid dining in the middle because its too warm. Also, take your tray and tableware to the shelves at the back as a courtesy to the next customers. Food here us affordable. I only spent less than 8 dollars for my meal.

Car-parking is by the new HDB parking app without the barrier. More lots are being made in view of the 24-hour NTUC supermarket that wld be located in the food centre. The carrot cake and the fried Hokkien mee are must-trys. Also, Ban Mian we got has evenly-sliced ban mian and well-cooked too as they don’t stick together.

So far food is ok, not very wow. Mutton soup quite bland but meatball is nice. Live prawn noodles are good. Western barbecue is decent, old school western but I’m not a fan of the garlic sauce. Salt fried chicken quite salty and herbal soup isn’t very Gao but not as bland as the mutton soup. Charsiew from idk which stall is not bad. Nyonya chendol is nice

Great place to come & try the different types of hawker food . However, the cleanliness of this place leaves much to be desired. Litter everywhere and floor not cleaned after someone spilled food/drinks. Tables also not cleaned in a timely manner. Probably lack of cleaning manpower. This is in sharp contrast to newer places like Woodleigh village hawker centre. I really hope the people in charge can look into improving the cleanliness of this hawker centre.

Very nice and patient uncle who runs this stall. I always thought sugar canes all tasted the same, until I tried this. Happened to find a seat in front of this stall and decided to just buy from him. The sugar cane was really fresh and had a clean taste (there was not that sugary aftertaste). Uncle was also telling me that his is not soaked in sugar syrup and yet it was still naturally sweet! Highly recommended! I think $2 for a cup, extra for lemon.

Ordered fried black carrot cake, chicken curry prata, Michelle curry puff, satay, Hock Lian Huat Prawn Cracker & Ngoh Hiang. The famous hokkien prawn bee was closed when we arrived at 5:30 pm; ate from another stall.

Old Airport Road Food Centre, established in 1973, is a highly popular hawker food centre in Singapore. It boasts a wide array of stalls, each specializing in traditional local dishes, offering a diverse culinary experience that caters to all tastes. While the food centre may show signs of age and the environment is not the most hygienic, the quality of the food remains exceptional. Notable stalls include Nam Sing Fried Hokkien Mee, Hua Kee and Cho Kee Wanton Mee, Whitley Road and Albert Street Prawn Noodle, Dong Ji and Lao Fu Zi Fried Kway Teow, and the renowned Lor Mee, among many other famous hawkers.

I have been coming to this legacy food court for decades and it continues to deliver exceptional food. In particular, i like the Chinese mutton soup, Chinese Satay, Steamed fish stall that only opens evenings abd sells out quickly. Rojak is excellent. Roast pork noodles and rice are also exceptional here

Part of fully experiencing life in Singapore is to experience Hawker Food! This center was clean, plenty of seating options both covered and uncovered. Really nice fans circulate the air and help keep the birds away. Roast Paradise has the best roast pork belly!! QQ fresh juice ice blend had a really nice plum soursop drink that is refreshing on a hot day, which is everyday.

No where near the airport (while it's just the name of the road, you kind of have to think if this road was where an airport historically was). Pretty large Food Centre offering a variety of Singaporean food. From noodles to rice to kaya toast to Singaporean coffee and drinks, you'll find here. Lines, while it can get a bit long at certain stalls, will go pretty quick. Looks more industrial for a Food Centre than some of the others, there are a lot of open air fans around to try to circulate the warm humid air. Definitely much more local in location--away from the hustle and bustle of the touristy parts of Singapore, this Food Centre is the place to go for local delicious eats. There is a bathroom on the second floor. Some parking around the area and walking distance to a bus station and the local MRT station, the location is convenient enough.

A one stop hawker center for all the delicious food. This place is always a staple for me whenever I'm in town. It tends to get busy during meal time and can be hard to get a table. All stores are self-service and the overall center has been well kept.

On our first night in Singapore, came here for dinner as it's close to where we stayed. Apparently, we order, pay right there and wait for the food rather than give them your table number and have them bring the food to you then you pay. Everything is about 4-6 sgd. we ordered the oyster omelette, pork ribs with water cress soup, lor mee, and char kueh tiao. It was all good and we were stuffed! Come check out this hawker stall!

Five-star Food Centre! The hardest decision starving myself so I can pack all the delicious offerings and still lament over what else I want to eat. Disclaimer: No air-conditioning, noisy, crowded, and expect long lines or queues. If you can put aside these dining conditions, Old Airport Road is AMAZING! It is a Must-Eat Stop for me in SG. Top of my list: Seafood Soup with Minced Pork Balls Yan Ji Seafood Soup): This cloudy soup is slowed cooked with layers of flavor. There is hint of wokhei. Fried flat fish ground and added to the minced pork elevates the flavor. It is salty and I don't like cooked seafood usually, but I cannot got enough of this broth. I dream about this soup in the USA. I usually get the soup with just the meatballs, but everyone else gets fish. I hear the prawns are cooked perfectly, firm, succulent and sweet. Hint: the cheap standard fish they offer is good enough. Don't be put off the price. It is worth it. Drink lots of water after that. $6 up per bowl. Rojak or Salad with Shrimp Paste: Jicama, guava, cucumber, pineapple, bean sprouts, crispy ew char kuay or fried dough sticks, Century eggs (fermented black eggs buried underground with ammonia) mixed with a sweet, nutty haekor or shrimp paste that has the consistency of molasses. Gong Gong or boiled sea snails: It is an art to eat these delectable bad boys. Gingerly skewer the flesh beyond the foot. Slowly ease the flesh until the whole animal is out. Hold the morsel by the foot, dip into sambal belacan or chili paste with fermented shrimp with a generous squeeze of lime, hold foot, bite and remove foot. It is chewy near the foot, creamy entrails at the end, spicy and delicate gift from the sea. $10 per plate. Char siu pork and roast pork (sioh bak) from Roast Paradise: crispy deeply marinated char siu and salty, crunchy roast pork belly and crackling served with rice. Tasty dipping sauce and mustard for condiments. Ask for more cucumber. Ice Kachang or shaved ice: Smooth shaved ice drizzled with colored stripes and sweet corn with syrup atop red beans, jellies and uptup chee, gelatinous sweetened seeds from a palm. They are generous, I found 4 yesterday!!! It is better when you share and fight for the uptup chee. Other delicious desserts are the green jellied Nonya Chendol shaved iced drizzled with gula Melaka palm sugar syrup , Cheng Tng dessert soup with lotus seeds, gingko nuts and dried longan. There are so many other stalls I wanted to try, but I can't get past my favorites. I want to try at least one more dish each time but my stomach fails me. If you are still peckish, try the Epok Epok or curry puff with egg, char kuay teow or rice noodles with black soy and cockles, plump oysters in a half shell (S$3 per oyster).

Have to give the Nam Sing hokkien mee uncle some love. Been eating from him for over 10 years and always awesome

Absolutely my favorite hawker center in Singapore. I request to go here every time I'm in Singapore and it never disappoints. Clean environment and easy to move around without being on top of one another. Open and breezy the smells will draw you in and make you hungry. Just about any type of local food you want is available, fresh and plentiful.

Praise the lord for Hawker centers! With so many hawker centers in Singapore, it is hard to decide which one in my favourite. Old Airport Road Food Centre is definitely a stand out. It is highly accessible via multiple bus line. With endless options such as prawn noodle, wonton noodles, fish balls, fresh juice, curry puffs, rojak, kopi and kaya toast available; this center is where food dreams are form. Be sure to visit Old Airport Road Food Centre to eat till your heart is content!

I was excited to visit Old Airport Road Hawker Center specifically for "Lor Mee" from the Uber popular stall- - "Xin Mei Xiang Zheng Zong" after watching a segment on YouTube. I braved the long queue and waited over an hour to partake in, what I expected to be a bowl of yumminess. Unfortunately, it was a huge disappointment! Lor Mee- served with noodles and a generous topping of fish and other ingredients. The gravy was significantly rich and thick with a slightly gelatinous texture and predominantly tasted of fish. It's definitely an acquired taste. Not something I'd get again. Despite the rave reviews of Lor Mee, the unsung hero is the Minced Mixed Noodle IMO. Pork dumplings and minced pork swimming in a bowl of wide rice noodles. The broth was light and full of flavors with the fresh herbs adding brightness to this delicious dish. A must try! Char Kway Teow noodles and proteins were impeccably cooked with a beautifully smoky charred flavor however, it was well under seasoned and one noted. Perhaps a dash of soy sauce will help lift the flavors a bit or it was an off day for the stall. Overall it wasn't a bad dish. Fried prawn and pork rolls were a mixed of sweet and savory flavors. While it wasn't my favorite, it was a nice side dish. Curry Chicken and Black Pepper Pork Puffs had a flaky crispy crusts and loaded with herbs and spices. A great snack especially on the go. A great tourist destination for food, sweets and beverages on the cheap!

My dad and I came here for lunch during our last day in Singapore. We went to eat at Maxwell Hawker Food Centre twice already and decided to come here instead. To get here, you'll need to take the MRT to "Dakota" stop and it's along the Circle (YELLOW) Line. This place is pretty huge. The first floor are the hawker stalls and the 2nd floor are mainly shops selling goods. Stalls that we tried: -Roast Paradise [Stall #01-121]: They offer roasted pig and char siew dishes. Our meals costed 4 SGD each. -Hong Hua Dessert [Stall #01-86]: They offer a variety of shaved iced desserts. We shared the "Ice Kachang" and it costed 1.50 SGD. -We also got the sugar cane drink. But, I don't recall what stall it was. Not bad overall. I wanted to try Chau Kee Satay [Stall #01-85], but they only open in the evenings. I also wanted to try Lao Ban Soya Beancurd [Stall #01-127] again, but I was already too full to eat anymore (Note: I tried their tofu dessert at Maxwell tho]. I'll come visit again whenever I'm in Singapore.

I loved the hawker center here. My cousin and her fiancee took us here as this was their favorite. You can find a seat first, and then go to all of the different stands. Let them know how many ppl are eating, they price the portions so you don't have to pay for more than you can eat. They bring the food straight to your table number when it's ready. Even when you pay for beer, they bring the bottles to your table too. Absolutely great food and experience.

Ok. Maybe I was waiting to be blown away after it was talked up so much but it was just ok / good. We had some noodles and a clay chicken pot with rice. Clay pot dish seemed a little dry and over cooked to me. Maybe we went too late but and it was the bottom of the barrel. It did take 15 min to prepare so it wasn't just thrown together. Anyway pretty good and no complaints but I don't think I'd make the trek to a hawker market again. I'd eat passing by. Experience box checked.

If you come to this food court, get the prawn mee at Albert Street Prawn Noodle. The line can get outrageously long, so maybe try getting here before the rush. Seriously though, the prawn mee is amazingly delicious- a really unique and complex mix of flavors in one broth. Also, get the Or Chein (oyster omelette) at Xing Li Cooked Food. And if you have a sweet tooth and want something to cool down with away from the heat and humidity, Nyona Chendol is good- I like the original, but adding red beans looks just as good. Everything here is cheap, relatively speaking. Old Airport Road is popular and a bit more touristy, but also a little further away from town, so if you're a visitor, you should just call a taxi (MRT is always good, but not everyone has the time or patience to check routes and stops). If you're a tourist with little to no exposure to Singaporean and Malaysian food, most of the food here will probably seem to be delicious to you. More often than not, if there's a long line for one particular hawker, the food is good. But seriously, no trip Singapore would be complete without visiting a good ole food court.

Lots of goodies but goodies Lor mie, nyonya chendol, SALT sous vide style hawker stall

I know there are many good food stalls here but there are also many mediocre or average food stalls. So you do need to know where to go. One such average food stall is #01-91 which sells congee or rice porridge. There are many varieties of porridge available and it does see a steady stream of customer who usually get it to go. I like the options available for the century egg pork porridge. You could choose meatball or meat slices (I think). I had the meatball which was lovely. It came with a you tiao stick which was still crispy. The dish not to order would be the raw fish salad. The small portion was miserable. One could hardly see the fish slices which were so thin they almost blended in with the disposable plate. I guess I am used to the versions served in Chinatown Food Center or even at Tekka Market Food Center which were more generous and cheaper too.

Hello Foodies! This is a place you must visit! The western food , Pork chop with garlic sauce is a must try!! There's lots of delicious delicacies here and you must explore many times to be able to try each and every food store! I can't review or recommend all as there are simply too many stores 1) Kallang western food 2) Lor Mee These two are my favourite though! Happy exploring !

This is one of the many hawker centers in Singapore and compared to some of the other big ones, this one is much less touristy. Our friend who lives in Singapore suggested that we meet here for lunch and it was a fantastic adventure. We employed the long queue method for determining which stalls to purchase from. For a feast of 4 dishes and 5 drinks, we spent about $30 total. The best item we got by far was the BBQ meat. I'm not sure which stall it was but this one is absolutely worth seeking out. Happy eating!

Selera Rasa - If you have not heard of the now $3.50 briyani, you are missing out. Used to get this back in my ns days when it was like $3 and was super stoked to find out the hawker was still around 4 years later. The macik is the best, she is super nice and used to remember our faces when we came over for lunch. That being said, I only remember her being opened till the mid afternoon. Never saw the place open for dinner. But I digress. This is hands-down one of the best briyanis on the island. The rice is fragrant and goes super well with the curry they used. The fried chicken and it's little fried scraps are tasty and fresh. Be sure to ask for veg and the papadum as well, she was out of veg when I got there at 2pm. Nevertheless, always worth the visit. Selera Rasa is located in the corner of old airport road food center. The corner being the side closer to the hdb blocks, as opposed to the cross street.

I'm so glad that my friend insisted I visit Singapore while doing my Winter Asia tour 2017. It's a pretty popular hawker (a term that means Chinatown complex) where you have two long rows of many different food options. FYI, it's hard to find napkins there so bring some with you. It was also hard for me to find trash bins so I found one attached to a juice stand and threw my trash there. I got scolded though since they could get fined for having random trash items in there. Very odd. Anywho, I ordered some prawn noodles and dessert from two of the stands and left pretty full and satisfied. Another great eating place to come back for sure and try other stands! They also have wifi there so that's a major plus!

I always will tabao bk mini Soon Kueh, Rice Kueh & Gu Cai Kueh which is nicely pack in a box. (Have vegetarian choice) They sell Curry Puffs too which is the traditional type. Best thing is they are Halal, suitable for all races to enjoy. Will go tmr again with family.

I liked this place better than the other hawker spots!! The noodles were tasty (pic posted), as were the toast and dragon fruit juice. Yummm! We got the noodles since it had the longest line there, hehe-sometimes following the crowd has its perks!

old airport road, known as the most popular Hawker in Singapore, offers a wide selection of food across different price points depending on what you eat. I love eating here, but it also makes my indecisiveness a problem haha. Some of the stalls will sell out and close early, to make sure you get to try everything, go in a group and go for lunch instead of dinner. I've had a few times where I wanted to get roast meats there, but they sell out before dinner :(

A solid hawker centre if you're looking for a legit Singapore eating experience. My current faves include: #01-02: Hua Kee Hougang Famous Wan Ton Mee The $5 portion of the dumpling noodle fed this hungry preggo lady well! I could've shied away from the chilli but I figured it wouldn't do the dish justice if I skipped it. The dumplings were stuffed to the brim and delicious. Throw in the copious amount of al dente noodles in a bowl and it is BEST. #01-12: Lao Fu Zi Fried Kway Teow I love Char Kway Teow and am not very particular with my stalls. Just know this one does the dish justice. #01-51: Waan Waan This is a Thai dessert spot that does coconut ice cream. Their dishes are quite refreshing in this Singapore heat; however they do try to upsell me sometimes even though I tell them straight up that I'm not interested... not a fan of that. Next time I want to try some of the curry puff stalls and the banana fritter stall in the back!

Plenty of stalls here to choose from. in fact if you have not make your mind up, you will be walking around for at least 30 minutes deciding what to eat. One of the best wonton noodle is located here, and there are two stalls. Which one is better you have to decide. There is a minced pork noodle soup, and it sells out fast. Get there after 2pm, the stall will be closed. There are at least two prawn noodle stalls here, again you have to decide which one is your favourite. Luckily there is only one rojak stall, get a queue number before you start your entree as the queue is super long. Don't forget the char koay thoew as well as the carrot cake. Again several better stalls at this hawkers center.

Unfortunately, I was not able to look at yelp beforehand so I just went with the flow and got random stuff. I first got mango jelly ice at some stand that I forgot to take a picture of so I don't know the name. It was alright. 3/5 Then I tried roasted chicken rice at xin kee and it was alright as well. 3.5/5 Then I tried the dragonfruit and mango smoothie at QQ juice and that was freaking delicious. 5/5

So many stalls to choose from and unlike other hawker centres, this one is not overpriced and not too touristy. Here's what we got: -Chilly crab -Pepper crab -Chicken and rice -Pork liver -Mussels and eggs The chilly crab and the liver were my favorites!

Roast Paradise #01-122 Charsiew with chicken rice - 4 stars Not much meat and the meat has a layer of fat in each slice and is a bit too burnt on the edges which I don't quite like. But overall the meat is cooked really well - moist, juicy meat, not too sweet or salty. BNR Coffee Kopi C Kosong Bing - 4 stars Rich good flavor even without sugar. Would get less ice the next time. Park at the multistorey carpark! The lanes are nice and wide compared to most other HDB carparks.

We ate here after hearing many great stories of the local food stalls within the hallowed portals of the Old Airport Road Food Centre. We were on the hunt for my new local favorite Singapore dish, Char Kway Teow and settled on unit#1 30. The stall was named Lucky and their specialty was spelled differently as Char Kuay Tiao. Minor details aside, we ordered two plates of Char Kway Teow with chili. The drink stall across the crowded way crammed with tables and people was playing Classic Rock and had Carlsberg on special offer. We also ordered a couple of drinks from the juice stall beside our Lucky stall. The food was great. Great flavor of cockles, Chinese chives, bean sprouts and flat noodles all cooked in light and dark soy sauce. Just the right amount of spiciness and a good sized portion. What's not to love. Washed down with Carlsberg and Soursop and Plum juice listening to old Aerosmith and ACDC, our visit was a resounding success. Cannot wait to go back.

Orchid Coffee Stall #11 (facing main road) Sugar Cane Juice The owner of the stall isn't very pushy but he will approach nearby tables if they want a drink. The sugar cane juice here is pretty decent and refreshing. $1.50 a cup. Western Barbeque #53 Supposedly a famous stall, and they serve each plate with bun all wrapped up in plastic, very old school. We ordered, chicken, pork and lamb. All were tender and juicy. The sunny side up was perfect too. Jogurtz #129 A newly opened froyo stall on the back row, serves small $3.50 or large $5 cups, to be honest, both small and large cups seems to have the same amount of froyo, just more toppings in the large cup. The small sized cup seems to be at least a medium sized Llao Llao cup. It's more icy and slightly more sour than other competitors but it is very refreshing to eat this after alot of bbq and greasy food. Lao Fu Zi Fried Kway Teow 老夫子炒粿条 #12 Probably one of the most famous stalls in Old Airport Road, the queue grows quickly but the uncle also cooks quickly. The stall can be recognized by the music playing out of the boombox, and the auntie who takes orders very quickly. You can be the 10th person down the line and she's asking for your order! The kway teow was very wet and wasn't too oily, the flavour was there and I didn't eat chunks of lard but I could definitely taste the use of lard. Xing Li Cooked Food 兴利熟食 #28 Fried Oyster As mentioned by fellow yelper Dominic C, the fried egg is very gooey and isn't crispy, the cook definitely takes his own sweet time to cook the fried egg. Jia Long Mei Shi #55 Chicken Wings The chicken wings were juicy and good, the auntie was very friendly and there was no queue. Got the food quickly and ate it quickly as well! Not a bad choice for chicken wings! Kah Ping Ri Ye Xiang #87 Rojak Lots of big dough fritter pieces, all were crispy despite taking my time to slowly finish up the plate. The chilli can be quite spicy so beware. Lots of crushed peanut in every mouthful! Ming Kee Fuzhou Fish Balls #109 (facing main road) Fuzhou fish balls have meat embedded in the fish ball which is nice! The meatballs are soft and bouncy and very flavourful. The soup is slightly more bland and comes with a small seaweed. They are served in portions of 6.

Wow! I had such an amazing experience here while I was visiting Singapore. I LOVED the fresh juices and smoothies along with the chicken rice. If you're in Singapore, you need to check this place out because you won't be disappointed. There are so many different options for food, and you will find something tasty for everyone.

Old Airport Road FC was my first experience of a hawker center in Singapore during my trip in November... and it surely did not disappoint. My friends brought me here and basically said "go!" and I had absolutely no idea what to get. It was so overwhelming since everything looked so damn good and there were new dishes that I wasn't accustomed to, being American and all. We ate a variety of delights here, from the classic char kway teow to braised intestines (I love intestines... don't judge). I also had my first Lao Ban dessert here - SO GOOD. We also had oyster omelette - the oysters were fat and juicy and the omelette wasn't overly greasy or anything. The only thing I wasn't too much of a fan of was the Hokkien noodles.... a little bit too ocean-tasting for me. Too bad I couldn't really tell you which stalls these things came from, but I don't think you can go wrong with any of the food here. Lots of soups, noodles, desserts, and drinks - enough to leave you in a food coma for the rest of the night. I can't complain about a place that sells a bazillion types of food.... only thing I can complain about is that it's not in an air conditioned building (haha).

must get the sugar cane juice! $2 very refreshing and affordable drink, one of the stall the uncle and aunties will come to your table and ask if you want something to drink. they'll take your order and then bring it to you that's when you pay them the money. We tried to try a lot of the stalls and almost everything that we got is very good, we got some recommendation on youtube channels. my favorite was the Laska P.S bring your own napkins :)

As I was doing my research on which hawkers are the best and that I must visit, Old Airport Road was one of the highest rated one. As you get off the metro station, don't get the first food court area confused with the hawker which is right after. However, the food center opens earlier than the hawker. The hawker location had great food selection although this hawker was not my favorite just based on overall atmosphere.

Classic hawker center - known by locals to be one of SG's best. They serve a huge variety of food here with many good selections. Quite packed and a bit difficult to find seat for a large group but nonetheless a good place to visit to immerse in the true local experience Reviews of some popular stalls I have been to per the below. - Dong Ji Fried Kuay Teow - the stir-fried noodle here has a nice wok smell but the line is long and moves slowly so gotta be patient - Lao Fu Zi Fried Kuay Teow - another fried kuay teow stall - this one has a stronger walk smell than Dong Ji but I personally prefer Dong Ji's seasoning of the noodle. A very good option nonetheless but super long slow line since they cook one dish at a time - Wen Wen Prawn Mee - average - nothing particularly special - Roast Paradise - really good BBQ pork - recommend - Nam Sing Hokkien Mee - usually I'm not a big fan of Hokkien Mee but this one is good - the noodle is not too soggy from the gravy and there's a hint of wok smell in the sauce. Long line. - Chuan kee satay - Ok / despite its popularity, I have had better satay elsewhere - Toa Payoh Rojak - personally not a Rojak fan but this is one of the better ones I have had - the ingredients were fresh and well-balanced. If you order with chili, it can indeed get spicy - Hua Kee Wanton Meat - good / comforting wonton noodles - not mindblowing but a safe good bet - 51 Soya Bean - a good place for traditional SG/Chinese dessert - try the tao huey (cold tofu pudding) - Sugar Cane Juice - a classic SG refreshment for a hot day

One of my favourite Hawker Centres! Do try: Lao Fu Zi Char Kueh Teow - worth the long line!! Lao Ban Dou Hua Chee Cheong Fun Sliced fish bee hoon Lor Mee At night, the satay, zi char, hokkien mee, rojak stall are all pretty decent. I must say, Old Airport Road is one of those hawker centres with the most stalls selling pretty decent local delicacies!

Came 2x and tried : Xin Xiang Lor Mee (4-1/2*)-- I'm not a lor mee fan and has never had a good one. I had wanted to try Hokkien Mee or fried kway Teow but both were closed. This lor Mee had a very long line so I tried it. It was very very good, worth the wait. $5 good portion. Came again and had Nam Seng Hokkien Mee (3-1/2*)--it's hard to find a good Hokkien Mee. It's okay and better than many places. $5 small. Not much wok hei. Toa Payoh Rojak is passable. Sesame Paste at another store is average, not fragrant. Sugar cane juice--good as always. I'm happy to have found this place and will try others when I come another year.

Amazing food court, BUT BEWARE - if you are not used to Asian food and are being experimental touring Singapore, this may not be the place for you, try something like Lau Pasat instead

Good for variety and many authentic Singapore cuisine. Especially love the juicy BBQ chicken which you have to queue for quite some time

Singapore hawker food or street food as the west called them. Over hundreds of stalls selling local food fla ours. Must try when in Singapore. Certain stalls have lines stretching 20 men deep. Take note there is no air-conditioning in the building.

Had the lor mee (#116) and fried kway teow (#12) - which also both had long queues. The lor mee was excellent and much better than it looked! But the kway teow ($4 portion) was only ok and the portions were tiny! You can add cilantro and chilis and black vinegar to the lor mee, which I highly recommend.

There are so many great food stalls in this Hawker. My favorite would be the Lao Ban, the Fried Kway Teow, the claypot chicken rice and the little stall that does Popiah. But no matter what local craving you have, this is the place to go to satisfy it!

This hawker center is a bit out of the way, but worth the stop if you have time! After visiting a couple of other hawker centers, this one was your typical place of various food stalls and such. Do note, that if you need to go to the restroom, it will cost you ten cents to do so. For most of the food here, the options vary from porridge to pasta to the typical dishes you see at hawker centers. I didn't know what to get so I conducted a small experiment. Instead of ordering whatever looks good to me, I simply chatted with some of the locals and ordered food based on their recommendations. Result? Everything I got was DELICIOUS. One of my favorite items was the Thai style noodle dish with wonton soup. The stall was located in a dark ish looking corner of the place. The wonton soup = yummylicious. The broth was perfectly seasoned and the wontons itself were savory and filling. For only $4, you get both the wonton soup + the noodles. Noodle dish was quite tasty, with the fresh cut BBQ pork and the seasonings on the dish wasn't too overwhelming. For other small dishes I tried, I really enjoyed the curry flavored puff and the fried dumpling. For the puff, the outside was nice and flaky while the inside tasted legitimately like good Thai yellow curry with its potatoes and chicken. As for the fried dumpling, this was surprisingly filling! The inside was mostly chicken, potatoes and small veggies and it had a nice spicy kick to it. Overall, I really like the vibe of this place. You don't see too many tourists and the locals are friendly and nice to talk to. Not sure if it was the time we went (late afternoon), but there was hardly a long wait (except for one stall in particular) for most of the food stalls. Definitely a relaxing eating experience at this hawker center.

My first Hawker's center turned out to be my favorite and one of the highlights of my Asia trip. Great food and good layout. Highlights: - Chay kway teow: mixed type of noodles in a soy like sauce was a hit. 5 stars. - Hor fun: wide rice noodles with gravy. 5 stars. - Carrot cake: rice patties with egg and a brown sauce was one of my faves. 5 stars - Meatball bao: soft bun and tasty big meatball hiding inside. 4.5 stars - Black pepper puff: didn't care that much about the famous curry puff but loved the black pepper version inside of the thick flaky exterior. 4.5 stars - Fresh juices: so good, I got 3. Blend the fruit with a bit of ice right there. 5 stars - Tofu: silky and just a bit sweet of a dessert. Meant to eat a few spoonfuls but almost ate the whole container. 4.5 stars - Noodles with minced meat: with and without soup with linguine type noodles were great. 4 stars - Layout: 2 long aisles with seating in between and outside under umbrellas Lowlights: - Few stalls closed on Sunday - Need coins to pay last for the toilet - My friend wanted fresh fruit for his kid but couldn't find it anywhere Got my 2 week trip off to an awesome start blissfully happy trying all of these dishes and would love to come back again.

My favourite hawker in Singapore in terms of choice (although Chinatown Complex has the craft beer stalls in its favour). Worth noting there is a covered path all the way there from Dakota MRT (but not Mountbatten). I'll update the list over time. Best: - Yi Ji vs Nam Sing (fried hokkien mee): both are worth trying. I personally prefer the fishier, sweeter Yi Ji and its pungent chilli. There's something fun about the brusk service as well. Nam Sing is an impressively professional operation and the prawns have a slight edge. - Geylang Lor 20 banana fritters: looks unassuming but these are very sweet, soft bananas. Love it. I'm not a fan of the larger, less ripe pisang goreng though. - Lim Hin fruits/juice: the soursop juice ("classic") is phenomenal. This stall is supposed to be quite picky with their fruit and it shows. Good soursop is one of the best things about living here. I never thought a simple soursop juice would make my "top 10 meals of 2017" list. OK: - Lao Fu Zi char kway teow (black): not as much wok hei as I'd have imagined from the giant wok, perhaps because outside rush hour. Still, this CKT has good ingredients and is on the sweet side. Can't wait to try Dong Ji. - Sin Thor Bak Koot Teh: a well executed, but not standout braised pig leg. I'm biased due to the closure of the two BKT stalls near my home, meaning any BKT finds favour at the moment.

Lots of stalls here and plenty of seats. I like the dry noodles stall that is on the outside corner of the center and also the fried bananas were yummy here. Definitely would visit again when in singapore.

* My favourite hawker centre * When in Singapore I'm in hole in the wall heaven with all of the amazing inexpensive hawker centres. This one is at the top of my list on every visit. Over the years some of my best meals in Singapore have been here. Highlights are one of the absolute best black pepper crabs I have had in my life, a wonderful char keow teow that had that lovely wok hei as well as some of the most flavourful Chinese sausage I've had, wonderful laksa, and a smooth fresh tofu that I can still taste. I passed on the crocodile foot soup that I saw on a past visit, and didn't see it again after that. Darn!

It is a better hawker centre in the day than at night. Most of the more popular stalls are actually closed at night. As in most hawker centers in Singapore, you bring with you some patience and join any stall that has a line, that will be your best bet. My personal favorites: - Nan xing Hokkien fried noodles (because they do the version that I prefer that has more bee Hoon than yellow noodles) - peanut pancake - kway chap - carrot cake/oyster omelette stall facing the front entrance

This food centre seems a bit out of the way which is good because it wasn't too crowded on a Friday afternoon but bad because I need that crowd to know where to go. I feel so helpless if there are no lines of any sort to help me make the very important decision about what to eat. I settled on some curry chicken and bread which was good. Plenty of seating both inside and out.
