Opening hours:11am-8pm everyday
From the main road, one could easily missed it.I did a couple of times and then realised that the site is actually off the main road and in Normanby in the apartment complex. But once spotted, like flies to the light, we were. It was brightly lid even in the night.The entrance is on the 1st level and you drive straight into the parking space on either the ground or 1st level-this is where the shop is at.
A family owned business, Miah's stall had a queue of 8 people when we arrived and we had to wait for our turn.(there are 2 other food shops there too but it seems that theirs are creating the most buzz) Seems like the people over there are regular customers and also desperate Singaporeans who yearns for Proper Singaporean Malay food. Its menu is the yummy hawker centre spread of Lontong, Mee rebus, Nasi Lemak, Roti Prata, Mee goreng and Fried Kway Teow. Cooked by Cik Miah (who is well known for her cooking in the community) and also her daughter Nabillah. They also sell Lychee, Milo Crushed, Teh Tarek and random traditional kueh(cakes) !
Tonight, I decided to get the Kway Teow and Chris, Mee rebus. Verdict. VERY AUTHENTICALLY WELL DONE. We like! The portion is of good size, Taste is there, spiciness kicked in well and best of all freshly made individually, hence the wait, but of course all worth it! Prices starts at $5-$8 for mains, Drinks from $3-$4.
