Revamped Serangoon kopitiam returns with 13 stalls offering KL hotplate curry noodle & nasi lemak
Sometimes, a makeover is all that’s needed to spruce up and breathe new life to a place. Having been in operation for over a decade, 裕香 (Yu Xiang) kopitiam at 237 Serangoon Ave 3 has just reopened on 25 Sep 2024, after a 3-week renovation.
The coffee shop houses a total of 13 tenants, including the quintessential drinks stall. I know, I know! Nearby residents around Serangoon Central will probably find most of the stalls familiar, as many have been around for some time. For the benefit of others, here’s a brief reintroduction to some of them.
Starting with the new kid in town, 煲仔 (Bao Zai) King specialises in a mish-mash of braised dishes and herbal soups. You can find familiar comforting favourites like Hometown Klang Bak Kut Teh (S$7/S$12), Traditional Sesame Oil Chicken (S$6.50), Dried Chilli Chicken (S$6.50) and Ah Ma Homemade Curry Chicken (S$6.50).
For something more interesting, the sizzling KL Hotplate Curry Noodle (S$5.50) and Hotplate Braised Pork Rice (S$6) will surely tickle your fancy.
As an opening promotion till 30 Sep 2024, Tenderbest is offering 2 plates of XXL Chicken Leg Nasi Lemak Set (U.P S$7.50 each) for just S$9 nett— what a great deal!
My friend who lives nearby heaved a sigh of relief when she found out that Chang Cheng Hokkien Mee is still around. She is a regular customer of this stall and orders the Fried Prawn Noodle (S$6/S$8/S$10), cooked by a friendly and gung-ho aunty and uncle.
Located right next door is Siew Lian Ban Mian • Bee Hoon • Porridge, offering — yes, you guessed it — the dishes in the stall’s name. Try the Economic Bee Hoon (min. S$1.50) and slurp on piping-hot bowls of Prawn U-Mian (S$5.50), Mee Hoon Kueh (S$4.50) and Century Egg Minced Meat Porridge (S$4).
Craving for Carrot Cake (S$4/S$5/S$6)? 三炒美食 offers it, alongside other hawker classics like Fried Oyster (S$6/S$8/S$10) and Fried Kway Teow (S$5/S$6/S$7).
Die-hard noodle fans can swing by Soon Huat to get their hands on Lor Mee (S$5/S$6/S$7), Big Prawn Noodle (S$8/S$10/S$12) or indulge in the luxurious Abalone Pork Ribs Prawn Noodle (S$10/S$11/S$12).
The noodle craze continues with 2 more mee spots: Lee Huat Teochew Noodle and Lee Huat Wanton Noodle.
The former serves lip-smacking Fishball Noodle (S$4.50/S$5.50), Fish Dumpling Soup (S$5/S$6/S$7) and Teochew Noodle (S$5/S$6/S$7) while the latter features Char Siew Wanton Noodle (S$4.50/S$5.50), Shredded Chicken Hor Fun (S$4.50/S$5.50) and Laksa (S$5/S$6).
