Food Junction Westgate opens with 23 stalls, has halal teppanyaki, Bib Gourmand nasi padang & $3 deals

The West just keeps getting better. As if the Jurong East area isn’t enough of a bustling shopping and food scene already, Food Junction has opened its 8th location at Westgate. That brings 23 new stalls to the true-blue West side of Singapore (sorry CCK folks).

To top it all off, promotions and offers are currently ongoing to celebrate the food court chain’s 30th anniversary!

The newly opened food court is situated at Basement 1 and is hard to miss with its enormous entrance fronted by a large yellow-lit signage.

When I visited on the first night, many diners were already having dinner at this 1,000-square-metre location. The crowd size didn’t seem to be an issue as the food court seats up to 400.

The first stall that caught my eye was Shanghai Fried Xiao Long Bao, placed strategically left of the enormous entrance with a glass display giving a clear view of the staff hand-making each dumpling and bao.

Can’t miss their Shanghai Fried Dumplings (S$6.50 for 8pcs) if you’re a true-blue dumpling fanatic, but Shanghai Chives Dumplings (S$7.50 for 10pcs) makes a pretty strong case for itself. If you just need some quick grub, Shanghai Siew Mai (S$4.50 for 3pcs) or Steamed Dumplings (S$4.50 for 3pcs) should be enough.

HJH Maimunah Mini might just be the star of the show. With this being their 9th outlet, is it really a surprise to learn that they (HJH Maimunah) have multiple Michelin Bib Gourmands?

Have a taste of their acclaimed Nasi Padang or opt for something lighter with options like Lontong (S$5)Mee/Mee Hoon Bakso (S$5.50) and Soto Ayam (S$5.50).

If going big is your objective, their Original Ambeng Platter (S$35) serves up to 3 pax, comprising Ayam Lemak Cili PadiBeef RendangParu BeladoBegedelSambal Goreng JawaUrap, Terung BeladoIkan Bilis KacangSambal BelacanSerunding and rice.
