The owner of this eatery really meant it when they named the store Ayam Bakar Ojolali, which translates to “unforgettable grilled chicken”. Get a taste of their scrumptious signature Ayam Bakar (Grilled Chicken) or Bandeng Tanpa Duri (Grilled Boneless Milkfish). Take it from me – their sambal is to die for!

Address: 304 Orchard Road, #03-40 Lucky Plaza

2. Cahaya Restaurant – Far East Plaza

Cahaya is one of the cheapest places for a Halal meal in town, located on the 5th floor of Far East Plaza. Cahaya restaurant serves a wide array of Chinese dishes from claypot noodles to fried rice. Everything on the menu is sedap gila, but my favourite is the crab-meat noodles.

Location: 14 Scotts Road,  #05-91/92 Far East Plaza

3. Puncak Best Noodles – Far East Plaza

There are two teams for those who frequent the 5th floor of Far East Plaza: The Puncak Team and the Cahaya Team. Puncak is located just beside Cahaya Restaurant (#2), and the food is equally affordable. There are two extra scrumptious dishes on the menu: Fried Wanton and Claypot Rice. In Puncak, Malay-Muslims can have their Chinese-style Tze Char.

Address: 14 Scotts Read, #05-94 Far East Plaza

4. JTown Cafe – Midpoint Orchard

“Eh member, let’s go makan where all the Filipinos are eating!”
“Where is that?”
“Jollibee at Lucky Plaza lah!”

Jollibee is a fast food chain from the Philippines, and they are famous for their fried chicken. They are also famous for their long queues, and that could only mean one thing – the food is damn good! You should also try their Yumburger and Jollibee spaghetti. Believe it or not, Philippine President Benigno Aquino actually dropped by this outlet during his visit to Singapore last year!

Address: 304 Orchard Road, #6-48 Lucky Plaza

8. Warung M Nasir – Killiney Road

Warung M Nasir is one of the best places for Nasi Padang in Singapore, and their Beef Rendang and Sambal Goreng is simply delectable. This cozy eatery also sells delicious kueh. Don’t forget to order Teh Botol (Bottled Tea) to complete your meal!

9. Ayam Penyet Ria – Lucky Plaza

If you’re craving for some smashing good chicken, there is no better place to go than Ayam Penyet Ria. They serve the most delicious Ayam Penyet (Smashed Fried Chicken) with a side of rice, fried tofu and tempeh, cucumber and savoury spicy chilli. Your tummy is guaranteed to be satisfied after a meal. If you’re in the mood for something else, you can also find dishes like Soto Ayam (Chicken Soto) or Rawon (Surabaya Beef Soup) in Ayam Penyet Ria.

On another note, isn’t Ayam Penyet quite a gory name for a dish?

14 Scotts Road, #5-22/23 Far East Plaza

10. Cafe Mondo – Orchard Central (for Desserts)

An awesome place for desserts is Cafe Mondo. Chocolate lovers should get their hands on Cafe Mondo’s Chocolate Fudge Cake or Chocolate Fudge Brownie. Other under SG$10 desserts on the menu include the Apple Crumble, Kronuts and Cheese Cakes.

11. (Bonus) Mackenzie Rex Restaurant – Prinsep Street

This last one is a bonus because Mackenzie Rex is not actually in Orchard, but near Dhoby Ghaut. Don’t be fooled by the fancy name – if you want good food in town at Kopitiam prices, Mackenzie Rex is the place to go. Seafood egg noodles, chicken rice, sweet & sour fish – you name it!
