If you’re looking for affordable donburi in Singapore, look no further than Umi Nami. Out of the 10 rice bowls they offer, one that is worth trying would be the Aburi Salmon Don ($14+).

Situated in Holland Drive Market and Food Centre is the humble Ru Fa Bao Dian. This stall is known for being creative with its bao fillings.
