Must Try

A bustling hawker centre at the heart of Bedok — one of Singapore's most residential towns and beloved by East-siders.
Chwee kueh — steamed rice cakes topped with preserved radish. A uniquely Singaporean breakfast.
Bedok Interchange Hawker Centre sits directly above Bedok MRT station, making it the most conveniently located hawker centre in Singapore's East. Bedok is one of Singapore's most densely populated towns and one of its oldest — the community that has lived here for generations has very strong opinions about where to eat. The chwee kueh stall here is Michelin recognised and has been serving the same recipe since the centre opened. The centre's position at the interchange means it serves a cross-section of all of East Singapore — from school children to retirees — every single day.
