Senja Hawker Centre by Kopitiam formally opened its doorways on 11 Dec 2022. Now dwelling to a number of well-known stall names and lots of new additions, its motto amongst all shops is encompassing affordability for all. The choice of shops right here might in all probability be a showcase of hawker all-stars, like China Whampoa Homemade Noodles whereas together with newbies to the hawker scene like Onigirazudon.
As I entered the hawker centre, I used to be shocked to see excessive ceilings and large ceiling followers. The hawker centre was extraordinarily ventilated, not like conventional old-school hawker centres with stalls scattered all over. It was extra paying homage to a kopitiam as a substitute of the same old hawker centre.
The solely drink stall, Kopi Kiosk, had a snaking line that hugged the curvature of the entire retailer. The kopi aunty undoubtedly had her palms shaking… not from the espresso however from the immense crowd that she wanted to serve.
The first meals retailer that caught my eye was Shi Hui Yuan, a stall very a lot related to my years of rising up. Originally situated at Mei Ling Street Food Centre, I’ve been consuming their Braised Chicken Hor Fun (S$4.50) fairly often due to its proximity to my neighbourhood. I rely myself fortunate for the supply of a Michelin-plated retailer in my neighborhood, which is now offering its unfold of wealthy collagen hor enjoyable to the individuals of the west!
It is exclusive in flavour, and also you’re unable to seek out this in another hawker stall promoting hor enjoyable. Apparently, they embrace as much as 30 herbs to achieve its natural style— A for effort for his or her distinguishing function!
Next is Jiao Cai Seafood, that includes seafood on hotplates paired with the delectable sambal. For the uninitiated, Jiao Cai Seafood’s sambal has its distinct flavour due to the years of onerous work put into it. A recipe that has been faithfully abided to for 40 years outdated, hearsay has it that individuals come again for his or her sambal.
Try out their Salted Egg Yolk Prawn (S$18) or their Prawn Paste Chicken (S$10). Forget Newton Food Centre or Serangoon’s Chomp Chomp when you’re fascinated with having a BBQ feast. Now Senja Hawker Centre’s the place with the inclusion of Jiao Cai Seafood!
Warong by Rice Garden is an attention-grabbing addition. They even have genuine Malaysian Ramly burgers obtainable, one thing that’s hardly attainable as a everlasting merchandise in Singapore.
Senja Hawker Centre is the primary to function Warong Rice Garden, a halal idea by the Rice Garden Community Programme that gives halal Nasi Campur for as little as S$2.
Next is one which I’ve heard good issues about, Project Penyek— serving up scrumptious plates of Nasi Ayam Penyet (S$6).
The rooster pores and skin was crisp and aromatic whereas retaining moisture within the meat inside. If I have been to ask my mates to explain Project Penyet, they might describe it as “Solid!”
With the opening of Senja Hawker Centre, I’m certain that this place would be the speak of the city. At 11am, the place was already thronging with individuals. This is me queuing behind the shop of Amoy St Lor Mee! Cheers to the approaching rivals to the native hawker scene as that is undoubtedly a spot to return! Who is aware of, possibly patrons can have a stroll after their meals on the roof backyard backyard above within the close to future. As of proper now, it’s nonetheless within the works.
