Katong Shopping Centre Reviews

An old building but lots of nice places to eat including katong Mei Wei chicken rice and Auntie Peng's Banana Pie!

retro vibes. very peaceful. nice to eat there, some interesting foods. relatively clean despite being old. usually for old retro malls like this - it is expected that its either food or ppl are looking for something specific.. or you just like to explore the retro vibes. if not dont go there then complain. use common sense pls. if u prefer spanking clean and very conventional spaces - then just go to some generic mall in town.

Old place but with good food

Place to go if you are looking for helpers/maids (the entire shopping centre is filled with maid agencies), home electric appliance (Paris silk is there!), pastries (Dona Manis and Auntie Peng banana cakes) . The chicken rice is decent but I don't necessarily think it's that good for a special visit.

It's an old mall. We roamed around and I noticed there are a lot of maid's employment agency. So maybe if you're looking for a maid, this is a place to go. We went here to try their famous chicken rice and carrot cake and it's good. Aside from the food, i don't know what else to try here. Oh! there's a tailor, a boutique, a dental surgery clinic, antique house, calligraphy store and salon. That's all I noticed.
