Best myVillage food places
A small, cosy mall located near the iconic Chomp Chomp Food Centre, myVillage has been a convenient go-to for Serangoon Garden residents since 2013. Whether you’re a first-time visitor looking for something to eat or a seasoned regular wanting to try something new, here are 10 food places in myVillage for you to check out!
- 1. Big Mouth Mala Hotpot
With four locations islandwide, Big Mouth Mala Hotpot is no stranger to mala lovers in Singapore. Known for their relatively affordable prices, punchy flavours and fresh ingredients, Big Mouth Mala Hotpot is definitely a place you can head to to satisfy your mala cravings. If you’re just feeling peckish, you can order side dishes such as xiao long bao, dubbed Shanghai Juicy Steamed Buns ($6 for five pieces), or Pork and Cabbage Dumplings ($7 for 10 pieces).
Unit number: #B1-25 Opening hours: Daily 11am to 9pm Big Mouth Mala Hotpot is not a halal-certified eatery.
- 2. ICG Chicken & Burger
ICG Chicken & Burger is a Korean fried chicken and burger franchise that first opened in 2016. Priced from $9.90 for six pieces, their classic Korean fried chicken comes in flavours such as Spicy Gangjung, Cheese and Garlic Soy. Those feeling more adventurous can try the Jalapeno, which is a Mexican-inspired sauce served with pickled chilli slices.
If you’d like something with more carbs, have their Garlic Soy Burger ($7.50), or Incredible Chicken Rice ($7). While the former stars a garlic soy fried chicken patty, chopped lettuce, pickles and onions sandwiched between two fluffy burger buns, the latter features chicken chunks in the flavour of your choice and scrambled eggs, served atop a bed of white rice.
Unit number: #B1-23-24 Opening hours: Daily 11am to 9:15pm

- 3. East Bistro
Helmed by Chef Tony Wong, former head of Michelin-starred Lei Garden, East Bistro serves up authentic Hong Kong dim sum and Cantonese cuisine. A must-try is Crispy Rice with Crab in Superior Soup (market price), a pao fan dish which comprises rice and a whole crab submerged in a rich seafood broth.
Many also rave about their Sweet And Sour Pork On Ice ($20++), where stir-fried pork and vegetables are served hot atop a bed of ice. Interestingly, this forms a thin candied layer around the pork for extra crunch! Those craving dim sum can also try the “Mushroom” Char Siew Bao ($4.80++), featuring char siew bao made to look like mushrooms.
Unit number: #2-01/02/19/20/21 Opening hours: Mon-Fri 11am to 3pm, 5pm to 10pm, Sat-Sun 10am to 3pm, 5pm to 10pm

To make your meal even better, enjoy these meats with their Signature All Dips Platter ($3.90++), which comprises seven different sauces including Garlic Butter Teriyaki, Ponzu Negi, Mentaiko and Sweet Sukiyaki With Raw Egg.
