After an unusually high 85 places that were closed for washing last month, October is a walk in the park, with just 15 places involved. We really appreciate the cleaners who work hard to keep our food places clean. So ladies and gentlemen, take out your handphones, calendars, or notebooks (if that’s still a thing for you), and set a reminder if your beloved makan spot is on my curated list of 15 hawker centres and markets closed for spring cleaning in October 2026.
