WHAT TO EAT IN Novena
Novena is a fast-moving central pick for office lunches, date-night backups, mall cravings and post-errand meals. Start around Novena Square / United Square or Thomson Road / Balestier, or use the whole-town swipe if you want a wider net.
Today's shortlist
Same picks for everyone today. New order after Singapore midnight.
Takoyaki
Crispy outside, lava-hot octopus-studded batter inside, drowning in mayo and bonito flakes. Patience test.
Katsu Curry
Crispy cutlet over rice drowned in thick Japanese curry. Comfort, maxed.
Pizza
Blistered crust, tangy sauce, molten cheese, whatever you pile on top. Cold leftover pizza at midnight counts too.
Ngoh Hiang
Crispy five-spice meat rolls + fried sides, sweet sauce. Pick-and-mix platter.
Chendol
Shaved ice, gula melaka, coconut milk, green jelly worms + red beans. Best heatwave antidote.
Quesadilla
Toasted tortilla oozing cheese. Simple, cheesy, perfect.
Korean Corn Dog
Stretchy mozzarella or sausage on a stick, deep-fried in dough, rolled in sugar. Street food sorcery.
Curry Puff
Crimped, flaky, molten curry-potato-egg inside. The OG grab-and-go. Mind the lava.

For second stomach, after-meal strolls, or a low-commitment catch-up.
Comfort backup
Low-drama dishes for when you want dinner to behave.
