Popular Toa Payoh stall, Mi Le Vegetarian, closes completely after 30+ years Mi Le Vegetarian

Toa Payoh residents needs to be acquainted with Mi Le Vegetarian, a stall that has been at Toa Payoh Lorong 7, Block 18 for over 30 years.

Sadly, their time has come to an finish and so they have since completely closed.

They’re one of many stalls that you just’ll catch with a protracted queue in entrance of them throughout lunch hour, due to their reasonably priced costs that begin from S$3 for a packet of Vegetarian Bee Hoon. Despite the growing prices all over the place, they’ve retained meals on an excellent price range.

The information of its closure was publicised by Mi Le Vegetarian’s Facebook profile on 11 Mar 2023, asserting that they might stop operations from 28 Mar 2023 onwards.

When the information was launched, some patrons the place shocked to see them search retirement so early. A patron even stated that “aunty and uncle not so outdated“, suggesting an inherent motive behind their closure. If they’re common, budget-friendly, and the homeowners are significantly younger, what might be the true motive of their closure?

Furthermore, Mi Le Vegetarian said that “as much as we would like to continue serving you through another 30 years, it is with regret that circumstances do not allow it anymore.” Could or not it’s the circumstances of excessive value, rental, or private causes? Regular patrons have been fast to leap to assumptions by piecing the puzzle collectively. Some of them suspected that the rental value elevated by a big quantity, forcing a number of tenants to shift out, and ultimately forcing Mi Le Vegetarian into retirement.

With their closure, individuals had been fast to bolster that the proprietor of Mi Le Vegetarian “has a good heart”, as they saved their costs reasonably priced for these in want.

On that notice, it truly is a pity to see increasingly good stalls closing. The frequency of stalls within the F&B business asserting their closure is certainly on the excessive.

With that stated, I’m positive most of us can say that we’ll miss the house cooked fare that Mi Le Vegetarian has to supply. They do up a terrific variation of vegetarian candy and bitter pork, which is uncommon to grasp!
