10 Harbourfront Food Places To Check Out For Truffle Salmon Don, Laksa Steamboat And More


Harbourfront food places to fuel up at


As a Westie without a car, going all the way to town can be pretty tiresome. Most of the time, my friends and I end up at Harbourfront, as it’s the most accessible to us all. The Circle Line and North East Line station is just one stop away from the East West Line! Plus, with plenty of new Harbourfront food places, including a green tea cafe, this is the place to check out now.  


1. Hokkaido-Ya


Owned by the same people behind Sushi Tei, Hokkaido-Ya boasts an expansive menu. Highlights include their Aburi Mentai Bara Chirashi Don ($14.90+), which comprises an assortment of diced Hokkaido scallops, Norwegian salmon, tuna and more. If you have not tasted white curry, try their Shirobuta Pork Katsu Hokkaido White Curry Rice ($12.90+). It is mild and creamy with a scattering of sweet carrots and broccoli.

Check out our full review of Hokkaido-Ya!

It always hurts our wallet to indulge in Thai food solo. Thai Thai Nitta solves this problem for lone rangers with their affordable fare – every dish on the menu costs only $4. They offer classic Thai favourites such as Green Curry, Stir Fried Spicy Minced Chicken, and Tom Yum Seafood. Their best-seller is Thai Omelette Rice, featuring an onion and minced chicken omelette lying atop a bed of rice.

For those looking for a cheap and good meal, head to Aspirasi in Seah Im Food Centre for ayam penyet. A plate of Chicken Rice sets you back $3.50, but for more robust flavours, get their Sambal Chicken Rice or Black Pepper Chicken Rice at $4. You can also spam your plate with free-flow fried bits for a delicious crunch in every spoonful!

8. Farasha Muslim Food

With interminable queues on most days, Farasha Muslim Food serves a mean plate of  Maggi Goreng Tom Yam ($5.50). Do not belittle the Maggi goreng just because it’s made with instant noodles. This spicy dish is umami and packs a punch at every slurp. Be blown away by the large fried chicken as well. There’s no way to zhng-up your instant noodles as well as this stall does.

Address: 2 Seah Im Road, #01-31, Seah Im Food Centre, Singapore 099114
Opening hours: Daily 10am to 8pm


9. Ban Heng


Add Ban Heng to your buffet list pronto. At only $19.80++ for weekday lunch, you get a whole spread of dim sum between 11:30am and 2pm. They have the usuals such as Steamed Barbecue Pork Buns and Steamed Salted Egg Yolk “Liu Sha” Bun, and also uncommon items such as Taiwanese thicken thread noodle soup and Paper-wrapped Chicken Wings.

Check out our full review of Ban Heng!
