CNY Bazaar Beside AMK MRT Has Stinky Tofu & Traditional IG-Worthy Foods Like Colourful Kuehs

A wise old man once told me that pasar malam in Singapore is dead.

Which Iโ€™d have to agree. Those traditional three-day ones that line up the footpaths in front of HDB blocks seem to have disappeared; even if you see one, you wonโ€™t spot kids forcing their parents to drop by the area.

And Iโ€™ll go out on a limb and say this: because itโ€™s the same stalls every. Single. Time.

But with the impending demise of those pasar malams with red and white shelters comes a new breed of pasar malam: food bazaar.

And these food bazaars arenโ€™t your typical fly-by-night night markets.

Theyโ€™ve been popping up in various prominent areas.

Just a while back, I was at a large bazaar next to Sembawang MRT Station and boy was I impressed.

I spent a whopping three hours there: two hours were spent waiting for my fried stinky tofu.

So you can imagine how successful these bazaars are.

Now, oneโ€™s popped up at Ang Mo Kio, and judging from its central location and the number of people living in that area, all I can say is that go at your own risk.

If you live in Ang Mo Kio, youโ€™d know that there is an empty area just in front AMK Hub. Even when itโ€™s empty, itโ€™s always packed with people waiting for people or humans waiting for humans.

Now, Chinese New Year has breathed some life into this already-lively area with a CNY bazaar.

Yeah, this bazaar isnโ€™t just about trending foods; it has traditional foods as well!

If youโ€™re already a parent, Ang Mo Kio would be a goody place to show your kids what you used to makan in the past.

The bazaar has started and will last until 24 January 2019 (CNY Eve). Itโ€™s located just in front of AMK Hub and will be open daily from 11am to 11pm.

Hereโ€™s a pro-tip: do drop by early. Some stalls close earlier, and many stalls run out of food near closing time.
