Jurong Point food guide
With several of my aunts living in the area and my old army camp a short bus ride away, Jurong Point def’ holds many memories for me. I remember its earlier years as a humble shopping centre, back when Fish & Co. and Soup Restaurant were its fancier offerings, and long before a second wing, two food streets, and a spanking condo were added to it.
While this mall has transformed in the past decade, I could always count on it to pamper me with a hearty meal. So if you’re looking for food in the west, bookmark this page and check out these restaurants, cafes, and hawker spots that we’ve hunted down for you.
1. Legendary Hong Kong

Living up to their brashly confident title, Legendary Hong Kong cooks up a sumptuous selection that will do any dim sum lover proud. From drool-worthy dim sum to springy noodles, all of their dishes are churned up by pairs of seasoned hands, so expect this cosy eatery to offer a safe bet for reliably delicious food.
For a failsafe dish, get their Wonton Noodle in Soup ($8.50), where QQ noodles are dressed with wontons packed with shrimp meat. Else, their Congee with Shredded Pork and Century Egg ($8.50) is a comforting pick for rainy days—thick, starchy congee is adorned with seasoned shredded pork and crescents of century egg.

2. PUTIEN

Born out of owner Fong Chi Chung’s passion for his hometown’s delicacies, PUTIEN has earned plaudits with their sumptuous selection of Fujian dishes. And while their menu has evolved in the past two decades, much of their cooking still exudes the warmth and quality of a seasoned Putian chef. Take for example, their signature Fried Heng Hwa Bee Hoon (from $11.70++), a straightforward medley of sun-dried vermicelli, prawns, clams and pork belly—all tossed into a wok to be transformed into a salivating plate of springy and umami-laced noodles.

3. Sushi-Go
Convenience is the name of the game at Sushi-Go, as sushi trains zip out of their kitchen, speeding along smooth conveyor belts, before making a neat stop at your table. Their various dishes are not only speedily served, but also tick most of the boxes for decent sushi. The Black Tobiko Gunkan ($2.30) surprises with its rich taste while their Ebi Fry Sushi ($1.80) offers a satisfying mix of crunchiness and chewiness. And with these stellar treats forming just the tip of their 130-dish menu, we’re sure you can unearth more gems from this treasure trove of affordable sushi.

4. Penang Road Famous Chendol
Image credit: @malaysiabolehsg
Don’t be discouraged by the unimpressive size of the Chendol ($2) at Penang Road Famous Chendol, as these small bowls of shaved ice come with packed with flavour. Empowered by generous drizzles of gula melaka and coconut cream, this lemak dessert sings with its coconutty and sweet notes. What I love most about their chendol is its distinctly oversized kidney beans, which complement the house-made pandan jelly.

5. Penang Yong Kee Char Kway Teow
Image credit: @malaysiabolehsg
If you have trouble navigating Malaysia Boleh, it’s probably because of the lines stretching and circling around Penang Yong Kee Char Kway Teow. These 30-minute queues are a fixture at this no-frills hawker stall, as diners are enticed by the rich wok hei of their Fried Kway Teow ($4/$6).
Yet, this smoky aroma is only the start of the performance; once these springy strands of noodles waltz into your mouth, the true serenade begins. You’ll get a slight nudge of umami from the sambal chilli, then a touch of sweetness from the chives, before the juicy shrimp wrap things up with their luscious kick. Consider me enchanted.

6. Petaling Street Famous Claypot Chicken Rice
Image credit: @malaysiabolehsg
You’d almost watch in fear as the calloused hands behind Petaling Street Famous Claypot Chicken Rice get to work, lifting up rows of scalding hot lids, churning our claypot rice with machine-like efficiency. With so much effort poured into them, these piping-hot pots of rice are made to etch a memory into your taste buds. The rice, fluffy and firm, flavoured with a drizzle of soy sauce, shines with its bold yet well-balanced flavour. Sliced lap cheong and diced chicken uplift the rice with both crunch and sweetness. Expect to spend around $6 to $8 a person.

7. Ji De Chi

Serving up an assortment of sweet treats, Ji De Chi offers not only a reminder to eat, as their Chinese name suggests, but also persuades you to help yourself with a sinful second serving. Their desserts range from the soothingly warm to the refreshingly cold, but regardless of where you stand on the hot/cold dessert spectrum, you simply must try their signature Mango Passionfruit Snowy Ice ($8.60). Featuring a wavy tapestry of shaved ice, cubes of diced mangoes, and chewy globules of mochi, this cooling treat rescues you from the sweltering heat with its much-needed fruity sweetness.

8. Damansara Chilli Pan Mee
Image credit: @deeglitzfood
Agree to disagree, but a bowl of dry ban mian carries more pizzazz than the typical ban mian. Damansara Chilli Pan Mee proves that. They toss the usual ingredients of a ban mian—bouncy wheat noodles, minced pork, and ikan bilis—into dark soy sauce before their chilli paste takes everything up a notch. Spicy, carrying hints of hae bi (dried shrimp), and teeming with umami notes, this robust relish packs as much flavour as a slow-cooked broth.

9. Tongue Tip Lanzhou Beef Noodle
With a series of deft slams and a few casual pulls, the skillful hands behind Tongue Tip Lanzhou Beef Noodle transform an ordinary-looking block of dough into rows of chewy la mian. A bowl of these al dente noodles would have been satisfying enough but this cosy restaurant takes things up a notch with their Signature Beef Noodles (from $9.90+). Swimming in a clear pool of sliced radish, their la mian soaks up the sweet and umami-laden broth, accenting the savouriness of the beef slices.

Ask anyone for their best chicken rice spots and Wee Nam Kee will surely break into the top five. This household favourite has waltzed their way into our bellies over the past thirty years, impressing us with their aromatic Chicken Rice Set ($7.50+). With bits of garlic and ginger fragrantly permeating it, their rice is a moreish treat on its own. The plump slabs of poached chicken just make the whole meal all the more delicious.

Most of us can’t help but throw ourselves into the embrace of good smashed fried chicken, and Ayam Penyet Ria honours this Indonesian snacc with their sumptuous Ayam Penyet + Nasi ($7.90). They immerse slabs of chicken into a sizzling bath of oil, giving them a shatteringly crispy crust before delivering the literal final blows. Repeated mashes from a wooden mallet enhances the texture of the already crisp meat, such that every bite greets you with a pleasing crackle. The only thing left to do now is to coat the chicken in their signature sambal paste and relish the fiery and savoury notes.

Here, your meal starts off by choosing your soup base, each priced at $1.50. We recommend their spicy, Sichuanese Mala Broth, made with chicken and pork bones brewed with 24 different types of herbs, for over two hours. Then, choose from a selection of ingredients, priced according to weight. Finally, pick a spice level, and you’re good to go.
