1. Shan Ji Ma La Xiang Guo

There are plenty of stores all over the country offering this spicy dish, but this one definitely stands out. For starters, Shan Ji was the pioneer of this fragrant hotpot, the first ever to sell it. Customers are free to choose the level of spiciness and the ingredients they wish to steam with the dish, which goes for every stall of this kind, but Shan Ji’s special sauce combines over 30 kinds of spices! It’s a hotness that will burn your tongue, but leave you giddy with delight!

2. Eat Chicken Rice

Yes, go on. With signature dishes like truffle chicken rice and curry chicken rice bowl, that’s exactly what you’ll be doing. The former is an interesting take on the the unique taste of truffle, and the chicken tastes even better with the extra saltiness. Their curry is also not drenching the chicken, ensuring that both curry and chicken can be tasted yet still be overall enjoyable. The classic chicken rice has fresh ingredients and also a great dish.

3. Fish ‘N Chicks

Just a few stalls away from the above stall is this special western food stall, with a highly regarded dish, Salted Egg Fish & Chips. You might recall them starting out as a small stall in Ang Mo Kio, which ended up receiving queues going up to an hour when their food rose in popularity. Now you don’t have to wait so long as Cineleisure provides their usual salted egg dish along with cheesy delights like Cheese Your Chicken and their brand new Salted Egg Shaker Fries!

4. Choo Choo Chicken

Fried chicken can never go wrong, especially when it’s from Choo Choo Chicken. Their sets may seem a little expensive to some, but you can rest assured that it’s quality Korean food. A variety of sauces like garlic and soy are available, and the sweetness makes a delectable combination with the warm crunchy chicken.

5. Suki Sushi

Ever heard of $1.60 sushi? We have, and now you do. Laze around in this diner and have your pick of sushi from the conveyer belt going round the place. Warm a la carte ramen is available, along with cold fresh sushi. Japanese food never tasted so good for so little.

6. Charlie Brown Cafe

Despite franchises sometimes being known for overpriced food at low quality, this adorable Charlie Brown Cafe offers great western food while having a delightful atmosphere. Their fried chicken and lasagna are one of the best dishes, and you can always take pictures with Charlie Brown or Snoopy while waiting for your food!

7. Yentafo Kruengsonge

From Thailand all the way to Singapore, this stall serves Yentafo, similar to Singapore’s Yong Tau Foo. Ingredients like fishballs and white tofu meatballs are available, just like our local dish, though the added sauce can give the dish a uniquely sweet and spicy taste. Of course, Thai Milk Tea is a popular drink to go with your food.

8. Es Teller

Named after the ‘iced mixed fruit drink’ in Indonesia, this stall offers the absolutely delicious combination of avocado, jackfruit, and other fruits with condensed milk and coconut milk. Tropical drinks in this heat are sure to be huge relief. The soft noodles and tender meat are not to be missed as well if you want to have a complete experience of Indonesian cuisine.

Don’t let our excavation go to waste! Head on over to Orchard Cineleisure, and maybe catch a movie while you’re at it!
