I would personally avoid Newton Food Count for the reputation it got.

Also, if you wanna to be true singaporean instead of fish head curry at 11Am try to eat frog porridge.

You've probably overpaid at Newton Circus.

What's wrong with fish head curry at 11am?

Come back for a longer trip in future. There is more to Singapore food than just food covered in chili.

SQ 319. I agree. We had less than 24 hours so we did our best. But we will be back. great city!!

There's also pepper crab!

Nothing wrong, it is lunch time any way... But if you want to impress someone frog porridge in Geylang for breakfast sounds better.

Affirmative.

Are there any Malaysian cuisine-specific hawker centres, say near Paya Lebar?

Also, there are two (unhealthy) stops I make at SIN whenever I'm passing through- Kedai Kue Kue in T2 on the way to the T1/T3 trains, and that place with the giant hill of butter waiting to be spread on kaya toast in, well probably every terminal.

SQ319

If you are looking for a Malay-centric food centre, Geylang Serai Market is probabaly the best known (and also somewhat infamous due to a food poisoning case, but that's more than a few years back).

That would be Toastbox. Toastbox is fantastic for the thick toast, especially the pork floss thick toast. Never knew pork floss and condensed milk can go so well together.

Not sure if there is a Toastbox is every terminal, but the other equivalent brands would be Ya Kun (the best of the lot imo for authentic kaya toast) and Wangs.

Toast Box has great Otah toast. Everyone should try it, especially if they had ordered curry chicken because dip the otah toast in the curry and <3

Such sinful food!!! We sin everyday in Singapore.. My cholesterol level is high..

BuildingMyBento

Uh, and I never want to know how condensed milk and 肉松 would taste! That the meat floss dissolves on the tongue got me every time...

You mean otak? It was good in Morocco, but I'll stick with dessert at Toastbox!

Flying Bat

Agreed. I consider myself well travelled, but I felt robbed by my newton Circus experience.
My recommendation - Avoid.

What did you eat at Newton? If it's just chicken rice and wonton noodles etc then it's great fun. If you go for seafood then I can understand there are risks. But for satay and noodle type dishes it's fine and it's fun in a group. I wouldn't pass it up just because of tourist trap issues, there are plenty of normal meals under 5 bucks there.
