Maxwell Hawker Centre is one of the best places to try genuine Singaporean dishes that are cheap and very tasty. Our favourite thing about this food court is how alive it feels, with locals and tourists all bustling about trying to get their fill of classic Singaporean street food that start from about S$3 per serving.
Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice is the most popular food stall in Maxwell Hawker Centre, if not the most popular in all of Singapore! Snaking queues are a common sight close to meal times – especially after The Michelin Guide gave Tian Tian a Michelin Star (the first ever given to a street stall anywhere in the world).

The legacy of Song Fa started in 1969 with a humble pushcart from which founder, Mr. Yeo Eng Song, served piping hot bowls of this traditional Teochew dish. For hours under the hot sun, he served bowl after bowl of piping hot Bak Kut Teh to the tables gathered by his pushcart. The bak kut is running out, he thought. It was time to get more meat from the chiller at his friend’s liquor stall down the road.
These were the humble beginnings of Song Fa Bak Kut Teh. They have come a long way from one food cart on the street. Yet their pushcart icon reminds them what they are about, an original Bak Kut Teh experience: tender, fall-off-the-bone pork ribs; hot, flavourful, spicy-peppery soup; a 1960s roadside dining ambience. At Song Fa, the heritage of Bak Kut Teh lives on in its truest sense.
