The F&B industry is a tough one to be in. We’ve seen plenty of stalls and restaurants close recently, and sadly, Beo Crescent Curry Rice—the famous curry rice stall that technically has no name—is set to close by October 2025.
According to a user-submitted post on the Singapore Heritage Food Facebook group, the coffeeshop housing the stall has been sold. The curry rice stall has been asked to vacate the space, but they’re on the lookout for a nearby stall to relocate to.
If you haven’t been here, this Hainanese curry rice stall with no name has been in operation at Beo Crescent since 1988, making the brand 37 years old this year. Being without a name hasn’t stopped them from gaining fame, though. If the constant lines for their curry rice aren’t testament enough to their popularity, it’s local food authority ieatishootipost’s “No. 1 favourite Hainanese curry rice”.
The must-order item for almost everybody at the stall is their Crispy Pork, which comes in wafer-thin pieces, fried to a keropok-like crispness. They’re definitely not for the health-conscious: only fatty pork is used to make this. They undergo overnight marination before they’re battered and twice-fried in ultra-hot oil.
You can’t order curry rice without getting Braised Pork, another intensely flavourful meat dish that features a secret blend of spices that they specially bring in for this dish.
Another must with Hainanese curry rice is the Stewed Cabbage—it’s well-seasoned and soft, and even better with their Lion Head Meatballs.
Of course, it’s all tied together with their signature curry gravy, which isn’t thick and lemak, but still packs a good punch of flavour.
Depending on the time you visit, the average waiting time is said to be something like an hour prior to this news. If you’re thinking of heading down soon, you might want to prepare yourself for an even longer queue now that the news of their closure is out.
