10 best hawker stalls at the all-new One Punggol Hawker Centre you need to know about
One Punggol Hawker Centre, located on the second floor of One Punggol Community Club, was inaugurated on 31 Oct 2022. It is the area’s first hawker centre, marking a new beginning in Punggol‘s dining scene.
Even though malls like Northshore Plaza and Waterway Point have their own food courts, they just don’t evoke the same atmosphere and feeling as a hawker centre does. Punggol’s first food centre features over 34 hawker stalls that are housed in a well-ventilated and spacious environment, allowing its residents to dine in comfort.
If you’re new to Punggol, don’t worry— I’ve got your back! I now present to you a food guide of the 10 best hawker stalls at the all-new One Punggol Hawker Centre that you simply must check out.
1. Botak Cantonese Porridge (#02-14)
Botak Cantonese Porridge dishes out comforting bowls of Cantonese-style porridge. They first laid down roots at Our Tampines Hub‘s hawker centre before opening their second stall here.
With over 10 different types of porridge to choose from, you’ll be left spoiled for choice. I tried the Mixed Porridge (S$4.80), which came with pieces of century egg, chicken slices, pork liver, cuttlefish, meatball and slices of fried you tiao. To make it more decadent, you can add in an Egg (S$0.60).
You can also try the Sliced Fish Porridge (S$5.30), Seafood Porridge (S$6.30) and Handmade Meatball Porridge (S$3.50)— there’s definitely something for everyone here.

2. Lim Bo Rojak (#02-11)
Originally located at Joo Chiat, Lim Bo Rojak was started when the owners visited a 40-year-old motorbike stall in Damansara Jaya, Kuala Lumpur, which served Penang fruit rojak. After that trip, they wanted to bring that traditional taste back to Singapore.
The secret recipe sauce of their rojak is cooked from prawn paste brought in from Penang. Try the Shiok (S$5.50), which consists of pineapples, guava, mango, Japanese cucumber, radish and you tiao. The Lim Bo Special (S$12) is an upgraded version of the Shiok with extra fruits, and added prawn fritters and fried fish skin— a truly indulgent rendition.
Look out for their other special items in the future, like their Chee Cheong Fun with Rojak Sauce (S$3.50) and Crispy Youtiao with Kaya Condense Milk (S$3).

Muslim-owned RENDANG NATION has various offerings of delicious Malay delights. Fill your stomachs with their range of set meals available, such as Lontong Kampung Set (S$5.50) Nasi Rendang (S$5.50) and Nasi Sambal Goreng (S$6).
If you’re planning on having something light, the Lontong (S$3.50), Mee Soto (S$3.50) or Malay Kueh (S$0.70) will do just the trick.
I personally recommend the Mee Rebus (S$3.50), which has a flavourful gravy with a subtle spicy kick at the end. Top it up with some Bergedil (S$0.80) and Vegetables (S$1.50) to make it a more wholesome and satisfying meal.
