The Original Vadai will be opening a new outlet soon.

In a Facebook post, they mentioned that it had been a struggle finding a convenient location in the North, but had finally done it.

"It will rain Vadai in Woodlands from 27th May 2022!!! Catch you all there!!!"

It will open at Kampung Admiralty Hawker Centre, located at 676 Woodlands Drive 71.

You can find the other branches at Beach Road, Joo Chiat, Century Square and Amoy Street.

According to hawker food champion KF Seetoh, The Original Vadai utilises dough made in small batches, along with bigger prawns and green chili (which are spicier than the ones found in the average vadai), to set themselves apart.

Although the vadai store only found a permanent location in 2019, the family has actually been selling the snack out of night markets for decades.

Address: 676 Woodlands Drive 71 #02-29 S730676
