What started as a small curry-puff stall in a coffee house in 1956 has rapidly grown to be one of Singapore's most recognised food brands (look for the luminous yellow signs). Now the original premises has been converted into a nostalgic dine-in restaurant, dishing up classic chicken curry, stews and of course, curry puffs.
