Looking for Supper places?

Came by for a team lunch and this is aparently a really popular old-school bak kut teh joint among my older colleagues. Really bustling with the weekday office lunch crowd and we were lucky to find an empty table almost immediately, though the food took some time to arrive (~10min). Their rendition of BKT would be up your alley if your preference leaned towards the peppery side - this was one of the most peppery BKT I'd ever tried! The portion of bak kut was generous and I enjoyed the lean version moreso than the fattier (you have the option to top up a small price for the fattier meat). Overall, a satisfying bowl especially on a cold rainy day.

Had a comforting meal with tasty dishes and porridge. We had 3 dishes: sweet and sour pork, pepper beef and salted egg prawns. Personally enjoyed the sweet and sour pork the most and would have liked the salted egg prawns to be a little more crunchy! Overall had an enjoyable dinner and would go back again.

I had a delightful dining experience at Gu Zao Ren, which offers a diverse array of dishes to choose from. Among the selections, I highly recommend the cereal prawns, hot plate tofu, and chai poh omelette, all of which are must-try items at this establishment. The cereal prawns were not only generous in portion but also fresh and cooked to perfection. The hot plate tofu was a standout, blending a variety of ingredients with soft, melt-in-your-mouth tofu. The chai poh omelette, though small in appearance, delivered incredible flavor—crispy on the outside with a soft, creamy interior. Despite its simplicity, the dish was wonderfully satisfying. In terms of service, the staff were friendly, responsive, and efficient, even with a busy crowd. Overall, I highly recommend this spot for larger groups, as their portions are notably more generous than typical zi char places, without compromising on quality.

Home-style dishes that hit the spot. I had the chaipoh omelette, peeled cereal prawns, and hotplate tofu—all full of flavour and done right. The cereal prawns were a standout, crispy and fuss-free.

Tried both the prawn and chicken chilli crab burgers and the prawn patty definitely takes the win — that crunch hits just right. The scrambled egg adds a soft, familiar touch and the chilli crab sauce… kinda works. It’s sweet, mildly spicy and vaguely reminiscent of the real thing.

But it’s missing that deep wok hei smokiness and the rich, briny crab flavour that makes the OG unforgettable. Tasty for a one-time try, but not something I’d crave again 》$6.95 Each (ALC)

Disclaimer: I ate this before they announced they increased the sauce. So my chief complaint was still the stingy sauce. I almost didn't taste it. But I always love prawn patty lah. Interesting scrambled egg too.

Reliably good. Restaurant-made is indeed different.

Scrumptious zhi-char stall that makes you want to come back again.

We ordered the salted egg prawns, sweet and sour pork, and black pepper beef. All of these dishes surpassed expectations as they were all very well cooked and served quickly.

The staff also worked very fast to get us a table and our orders.

I highly recommend this place, especially for larger groups as they have plenty of tables to accommodate.

This place is perfect for dessert after a nice meal at Geylang . They really pick e best durians for u n you consume on the spot . They have other fruits if ure not a durian fan . Price is very reasonable and service is good .

A highlight of the meal. Wok hei and perfect grains.

Still so good. The pork was incredible. But overall too salty.
