Spinach Soup at Geylang Bahru Market & Food Centre. However, it seems there are many outlets around Singapore – so not sure this stall in particular.
Tai Seng Fish Soup located in Taman Jurong Market & Food Centre is a third-generation family business, which prides itself on its delicious fish soup made from scratch, served with sliced fish, deep-fried fish, or fish head.
Yong Chun Wan Ton Noodle located at 115 Bukit Merah View Market & Food Centre serves springy egg noodles.
The Bib Gourmand guide highlights restaurants offering “exceptional good food at moderate prices”, and about half in that list in Singapore are hawker stalls.
They must offer menu items priced below a maximum determined by local economic standards. In Singapore’s guide, the price is set at $45.
This is not to be confused with the actual Michelin Guide which awards “stars”.
