Best Golden Mile Food Centre food
Situated opposite the now closed Golden Mile Tower Complex, which many people flocked to for cheap Thai food, Golden Mile Food Centre was sometimes overlooked by people looking for good food in the area. A shame really, considering how much yummy grub the place offers. This listicle serves as a guide to some of the best stalls in the hawker centre.
1. Chung Cheng Chilli Prawn Noodles
One of the stalls here that draws long queues daily is Chung Cheng Chilli Prawn Noodles, and it’s not surprising why. Known for their house-made signature chilli sauce, the uncle preparing their Chilli Mee (from $4.50) shows no mercy as he adds spoonful after spoonful of the piquant sauce into the noodles. Each bowl comes with pieces of pork ribs, prawns, taupok, fishcake as well as a hard-boiled egg. Remember to mix it all up so that you don’t eat the chilli by itself!

2. Kheng Fatt Hainanese Beef Noodles

Nothing screams comfort food more than a bowl of dry beef noodles from Kheng Fatt Hainanese Beef Noodles. Drenched in a thick gooey gravy, their Dry Sliced Beef Noodles ($5) comes with a handful of springy rice noodles and a generous amount of pinkish beef slices. They have the soup version as well, if you prefer something lighter on the palate. For a greater variety of textures in your bowl, get the Beef and Beef Ball Noodles ($6) for a combination of tender beef slices and chewy beef balls.
Unit number: #01-89
Opening hours: Thurs-Tue 11:30am to 7:30pm

3. YouFu Hokkien Mee
Run by a 21-year-old, YouFu Hokkien Mee makes quite the case for the chops that our next-gen hawkers possess. The noodles are cooked in a broth that is boiled for at least eight hours, and stir-fried to infuse it with a rich wok hei. You can choose between thick or thin bee hoon mee, or a mix of both, to be on your aromatic and moreish plate of noodles. Prices start from $5, but regardless of which size you get, the portions are said to be quite generous.
Unit number: #01-57
Opening hours: Tues-Sun 11:30am to 8:30pm

4. Charlie’s Peranakan Food
Calling all Peranakan food lovers, Charlie’s Peranakan Food is where to go for simple and classic dishes. Everything at Charlie’s Peranakan Food is made from scratch in-house, according to the recipes passed down through Charlie’s mother. Be sure to try dishes such as Ayam Buah Keluak ($12), Beef Rendang ($13), and Babi Hong ($12) for a taste of some perennial Peranakan classics done right.

5. Ashes Burnnit
Run by the ex-founders of popular Western food joint, Burgs by Project Warung, Ashes Burnnit sells affordable burgers in Golden Mile Food Centre. Their burgers start from $7.90, with the Ashes Classic Cheeseburger being the go-to option. Served with a striking charcoal bun, the burger patties are smashed on the grill for an extra charred crust. Each order comes served with thick-cut fries too. The stall also has unique charcoal roti john, such as the Cheesy Steak ($11), a mammoth of a burger filled with charred beef short rib, omelette, smoked cheese, and more.

6. Hainan Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee

Hainan Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee is helmed by an old couple, where the uncle will fry each batch of Hokkien Mee ($5) with care. The classic mix of wok hei-filled yellow noodles and bee hoon is left to simmer in a seafood stock, leaving a natural sweetness on the dish. The wok hei here is the stall’s claim to fame—fans have noted how much aroma and flavour it adds to the dish. Don’t miss out on their sambal chilli, too, which is said to be wonderfully spicy, tangy, and fragrant.

Opening hours: Thurs-Tue 10am to 5pm

7. Mr Baguette
Mr Baguette is the only place in Singapore that sells lava baguettes. Despite the glorious molten fillings, the baguette still had a good crisp on the outside. One of the must-tries here would be their Hazelnut Lava. Packed with a rich hazelnut chocolate filling, this is one for all with a sweet tooth! My personal favourite would be their savoury baguette, Carbonara Bowl. It is packed with macaroni, ham, and cheese. Prices start at $5 for a box of two.
Unit number: #B1-51
Opening hours: Mon-Fri 11am to 4:30pm, Sat-Sun 11am to 6pm

8. 75 Ah Balling Peanut Soup
To tang yuan lovers, 75 Ah Balling Peanut Soup is definitely not a new name. Since they started business in 1947, they have been famous for old-school tang yuan that come with explosive fillings. While their Peanut Soup is their best-seller, do try their Longan Soup, Ginger Soup, and Almond Soup as well. Each bowl of their dessert comes with four pieces of glutinous rice balls, with fillings such as peanut, sesame, and red bean to choose from. A bowl of tang yuan starts from $2.20, with a minimum of three pieces per order.

To cap off any meal at Golden Mile Food Centre, especially those on a hot, sultry day, be sure to drop by Zhao An Granny Grass Jelly for a bowl of ice cold Grass Jelly (from $1.60)! Served in a traditional porcelain bowl and with a metal spoon, their house-made chin chow is made to be smoother and silkier than other grass jelly dishes out there. They serve their grass jelly with Nata De Coco ($1.50) and Longan ($2).

10. Yew Chuan Claypot Rice

Yew Chuan Claypot Rice is a stall that constantly draws long queues, thanks to their moreish claypot rice. The signature Claypot Chicken Rice starts from $14, and comes with tender chicken chunks, Chinese sausage, salted fish, and vegetables. The rice in each claypot is said to be particularly fragrant and savoury, so fans of claypot rice will surely love it. Portion sizes can go up to $33 if you prefer to share with your family or a group of friends.
Unit number: #01-73
Opening hours: Tue-Wed 12pm to 8pm, Fri-Sun 12pm to 8pm
Tel: 9137 5661

11. Chef Choo Signature
Chef Choo Signature is run by a chef who had previously worked for the likes of Regent and Grand Hyatt, so you can expect quality Western eats here whipped up with plenty of skill. The Sizzling Seafood Spaghetti (from $7.90), a twist on the regular marinara, comes highly recommended—the excellent flavours and fresh seafood makes it worth a shot. Prices are kept affordable here, with Spaghetti Carbonara ($6.50) and Pork Chop ($6.90) all ringing in the till at under $10.

12. Adimann
According to Adimann’s storefront, they are to be known as the “Nasi Lemak and Chicken Rice Hipster”, which is quite the claim if it weren’t for the tasty dishes they offer. The nasi lemak here comes in generous portions, with fluffy basmati rice instead of the normal long-grain rice, and with unique takes such as the Nasi Lemak Chicken Cutlet with Salted Egg Yolk Sauce ($7.50). We love the fragrant salted egg topping, but the piquant sambal here is a real gem. But if you’d just like to have the basic, no-frills option, go for the Nasi Lemak Flintstone ($5.50).
Unit number: #B1-12
Opening hours: Daily 10am to 10pm
Adimann is a halal-certified eatery.
13. Braise Lu Zhi Jia
Lu rou fan is far from uncommon in Singapore these days, but lu rou fan as special as the one Braise Lu Zhi Jia serves up is far from common. A bowl of Braised Pork Rice costs a mere $3.50, and yet it is filled with juicy and succulent pork, along with other ingredients such as black fungus, xiao bai cai, shiitake mushrooms, pressed tofu, and tau pok. You can get your lu rou fun with other cuts of meat too, such as in the Braised Pork Belly Set ($5) and Braised Pork Cheek Set ($8).

14. Wen Li Taiwanese Food
The previous entry, while known for their lu rou fan, doesn’t exactly serve the classic Taiwanese rendition of it, nor does it have other Taiwanese dishes on its menu. For that, go to Wen Li Taiwanese Food for its tasty and affordable eats. There is, of course, the Taiwanese Braised Pork Rice (from $3.50), but also Mee Sua (from $3.50), Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken ($4) and more. All of these dishes are great for their price points, and taste pretty authentic to boot.

15. Bugis Long House Lim Kee Beef Noodle
Another good beef noodle stall in Golden Mile Food Centre, Bugis Long House Lim Kee Beef Noodle will satisfy your cravings for hearty and savoury noods. Whether you get the Soup Mixed Beef Hor Fun (from $6) or Dry Mixed Beef Hor Fun (from $6), you can expect your bowl to have tender beef slices, silky hor fun noodles, and either an aromatic broth or a viscous, flavourful gravy. There’s also the Beef Tendon and Beef Brisket Herbal Pot (from $7), which features a comforting, herbal soup.
