Marine Parade Central Market and Food Centre

Out with the old, and in with the new – the hawker centre reopens in 2019 after a major facelift. It’s now brighter, airy, spacious, and decked with washrooms and intelligent tray return systems. Many of its previous tenants such as Apollo Fresh Cockle Fried Kway Teow, Yok Mari Yok Nasi Padang, and Neptune Hong Kong Dim Sum have returned to dish out their crowd favourites which sets you back no more than a fiver. Other worthy mentions include D’Authentic Nasi Lemak’s signature dish complete with moreish sambal, crispy chicken wing, fried fish, fried egg, and ikan bilis ($3.50), and Aziza Putu Piring’s steamed rice flour cakes which comes with different fillings like gula Melaka, durian, and Nutella ($2.70 for three).
