Food prices might be on the climb across the city, but thankfully we always have hawker centres to count on for cheap yet reliable meals when we’re on a budget. And we’ve welcomed plenty recently, like the new Anchorvale Village Hawker Centre which opened in June, and Woodleigh Village Hawker Centre in September. The iconic Old Airport Road Food Centre also reopened recently after four months of upgrading works. 

This month, Keat Hong Wet Market at Choa Chu Kang also gets a revamp. The former traditional wet market now houses 13 new hawker stalls and a seating area with a capacity of 200. But those who used to do their marketing here need not fret – there are still 12 market stalls selling a variety of groceries from seafood, to fresh pork, halal meat and poultry, and other essential items. 

The food centre will offer a wide range of cuisines, from local classics to Japanese, Korean, Hong Kong, and Western fare. And in a bid to make things accessible to all, every food stall will be offering budget meals priced at $3.50 or less. Kopi Kiosk will also be selling its signature Kopitiam breakfast set (from $2.20), as well as hot kopi-o and teh-o at $1 each.
