Top 5 Places to Eat at Punggol Oasis Terraces

Just a few years back, many will be reluctant to travel to Punggol for entertainment and food. Located away from the city centre with limited choices in Waterway Point, even residents living around the area will travel out for the weekend. But now, it’s a different story. The 7-storey Oasis Terraces, launched by the Housing and Development Board (HDB), is the first new generation neighbourhood centre. Situated conveniently right next to Oasis LRT station, it holds 47 shops (to date Apr 19), including a NTUC Fairprice supermarket, a 24hours Anytime Fitness gym and a polyclinic. What about food-wise? Fear not, with the wide variety of cuisines available in the mall, we have picked out some of the popular ones that will lure you over in no time.

If you’re into cafe hopping, then hop your way over to Rise & Grind Coffee Co. Due to popular demand, the team has decided to open their second branch right next to the Punggol neighbourhood. With their expanded menu, it is not only a good place for breakfast and brunch, but even lunch and dinner! Must try include their signature Pulled Pork Benedict and Seafood Tom Yum pasta.

Korean food has been a big hit ever since the first K-wave. Fried chicken and bingsu are definitely among Singaporean’s favourite, and ChikSoo specialises in just that. The wings come in 3 flavours: soya sauce, sweet chilli and hot & Spicy. If you are up for something more filling, they also offer classic korean dishes like Army Stew, Bibimbap and Ginseng Chicken Soup.

Though their price range is slightly higher compared to other Japanese restaurants around the Punggol area, it’s worth the quality.
