The newly renovated space looks like an atas coffeeshop, decked in dark wood furnishings and flooring for a clean and modern look. There are both indoor and outdoor seats to choose from, plus draught beers going at just $10 a pint.

If you’re visiting in a group, splurge on their Lala Bee Hoon ($38.80), which comes in a claypot. You’ll get 1kg of clams cooked in a sweet and creamy broth, alongside various toppings including fresh veggies. There’s also an option to zhng up your meal with additional ingredients with a small top-up!

Based on online reviews, they have a fish head curry option too.

If you’re not in the mood for claypot, or if you want something more fuss-free, the coffeeshop’s Wok Hawker stall offers DIY modern zi char bowls. Similar to mala, you get to pick your ingredients, priced according to weight ($2.88 per 100g).

Then, choose your flavour, with options such as Black Bean, Garlic, and Mala. The last step is to decide on your main: Fried Rice, Hor Fun, Ee Noodles, Bee Hoon, Tang Hoon, Instant Noodles, or White Rice.

Besides the customisable zi char dishes, Wok Master offers other lesser-seen sides, such as Garlic Lala ($16), Fried Pork Belly ($12), and Orleans Fried Chicken ($12).

Jio Kopitiam is a 15-minute walk or five-minute bus ride from Tiong Bahru MRT Station. As the coffeeshop is still fairly new, there isn’t much information about the other vendors. We’ll update this article when we get more details!

For more food in the area, head to the newly opened Toast Box Coffee House on Seng Poh Road for local fare. Otherwise, check out Le Royal Patisserie for cute cakes and daifuku in Tiong Bahru.
