When it was announced in March that all Ramadan Bazaars including the popular Geylang Serai Ramadan Bazaar would be cancelled, Singaporeans all over the country started pinching each other to make sure they weren’t having a nightmare.
Unfortunately, it was all too real.
Forget about our beloved Ramly burger and bubble tea, where else other than the Geylang Serai Bazaar would you find Praffles, a beautiful marriage of waffles and Prata?
Such culinary genius is hard to find elsewhere.
Or is it?
See, you can take Singaporeans out of the bazaar, but you can’t take the bazaar out of Singaporeans.
Hawkers Setting Up ‘Mini Ramadan Bazaars’ Outside Their Stalls to Sell Even Ramly Burgers
According to Mothership, some hawkers have been setting up ‘mini Ramadan bazaars’ outside their stalls, selling everything from Ramly burgers to kuehs.
Here are four stalls you can go to if you’re missing some good old bazaar food.
1. MCC Makan Place
A Ramadan bazaar without a Ramly burger is like bubble tea without the tapioca pearls; what’s the point?
Usually sold at pasar malams and Ramadan bazaars, these burgers can now be purchased at MCC Makan Place along Changi Road.
According to Mothership, this stall serves the standard Chicken/beef Ramly burger (S$4), or if you’re a glutton like me, you could get the Double patty chicken/beef Ramly burger (S$6).
They also sell the Roti John special (S$5), Otah-otah(S$5 for 10 pieces) and Ayam percik (S$2), a spiced coconut chicken.
Address: MCC Makan Place 279 Changi Rd, Singapore 419759
If Changi is a little far for you, you can order these tasty items through delivery.
2. Ayer Rajah Food Centre
A typical Indian-Muslim stall on any day, Ayer Rajah Food Centre sells a wider selection of delicious foods during the month of Ramadan.
This includes local favourite Tulang (S$10 to S$15). Nothing’s more satisfying than getting that rich, buttery marrow out of that bone with your mouth.
They also sell a variety of kuehs and air katira, a drink often served during Ramadhan because of its cooling property.
These items typically sell out before 5pm, so get your hungry butts there early.
Address: Ayer Rajah Food Centre, Blk 503 West Coast Drive, Singapore 120503

3. Afghanistan Family Restaurant
If you want a heartier meal, head to Afghanistan Family Restaurant, where you can find dishes like roti daging (bread filled with beef), kentang telur, a potato omelette, and ubi rebus, a sweet tapioca dessert.
They also have many different kuehs like Kole-kole kacang (steamed green bean kueh) and Puteri salat (glutinous rice kueh with pandan-coconut custard). But if your mouth only wants Ramly burgers, fret not, they have that too.
Address: Tampines N2 Shopping Street, 201E Tampines Street 23, Singapore 527201
4. 415 Yishun Ave 11 Coffee Shop
If you have a sweet tooth, then this stall is the one for you.
You can find popular kuehs like Ondeh-ondeh (glutinous rice flour balls filled with palm sugar), Kueh dadar (rolled crepe with grated coconut and palm sugar), and even Bingkai ubi (baked tapioca cake).
Or, if you’re not a fan of kuehs, you could get Badak berendam, a popular dessert in Malaysia where glutinous rice balls are drenched in coconut milk.
Address: Blk 415 Yishun Ave 11, Singapore 760415
So, what are you waiting for! Dust your dogs, wear your masks, and head down to these stores now!
Covid-19 may take away our haircuts, freedom, and ability to travel, but it will never separate us from delicious food.
