Singaporeans studying or working in London can now savour the fried taste of Singapore.
Old Chang Kee has opened its first flagship outlet at Covent Garden.
The eatery is modelled after the Curry Times restaurants by Old Chang Kee in Singapore.
Old Chang Kee's London menu
The London menu offers mains such as chicken curry, nasi lemak, and laksa:
Of course, these mains are London prices.
Priced between £6.30 (S$11.27) and £8.50 (S$15.20), it is affordable for Londoners accustomed to paying £9.99 (S$17.86) fish and chips.
Don't worry, not that spicy
The menu even answers a frequently-asked question, probably pre-empting taste buds not familiar with the spiciness of Singaporean cuisine:
Puffs prices
Potato curry puffs are going for £2.60 (S$4.65) and Old Chang Kee's signature curry puff is sold for £2.80 (S$5.01).
You can also tuck into a chili crab puff for £3.20 (S$5.72) and a black pepper tuna puff for £2.90 (S$5.18), which sounds pretty interesting.
Regardless, the London outlet will probably be getting a warm reception: The Old Chang Kee pop-up stall last year saw some great reception, where they sold out their puffs.

You'll probably also be happy to hear that Singapore's Old Chang Kee outlets are having a promotion to celebrate the London opening: You can get three puffs for S$4 from June 6 to 12.
