Another new food court in the works? That’s right! Hawkers’ Street has arrived at Eastpoint Mall in Simei and will open on 19 Jun after construction work is completed.
The new food court was first spotted around 7 May by netizens living in the East. As it is still under construction, the units on Level 3 of the mall have been boarded. Information such as the contact details of Hawkers’ Street, the opening date and featured brands are displayed on the boards for easy reference.
Hawkers’ Street is an eatery concept that aims to bring famous and iconic hawkers closer to all Singaporeans, regardless of location. Its goal is to make sure hawker culture lives on by gathering hawkers under one roof in a food court setting.
Due to the food court’s concept, the stalls will be set in a 1960s street hawker-themed arrangement meant to evoke nostalgia and reflect the heritage and history of Singaporean hawker culture.
Now that Hawkers’ Street has made its way to Eastpoint Mall, Eastside residents can expect to see a large variety of food options both old and new. More notably, there will be 4 Michelin Guide mentions, 3 of which originate from the West.
Michelin Bib Gourmand charcoal roasted meat stall Fei Fei Roasted Noodle and fish soup stall Tai Seng Fish Soup from Yuhua Village, and Guide mention Loong Kee Yong Tau Fu from 505 Jurong West Market & Food Centre hail from Jurong. Meanwhile, Michelin Guide Tai Wah Pork Noodle is a chain with outlets islandwide.
Hawkers’ Street Eastpoint also features well-known local brands, some of which you might have seen in your local coffeeshops. These include the chain King of Fried Rice, Hill Street Hainanese Curry Rice, Hill Street Coffeeshop and Top 1 Home Made Noodle from Beauty World.
Hawkers’ Street has a nearby outlet at Tampines 1. However, it has yet to branch out to the West, much to the disappointment of several netizens. Perhaps its future plans will touch on this possibility?
