Nighttime Fever Returns to Punggol
Missing the nightly buzz of pasar malam? Good news! The sizzling evening markets are back, and this time it’s all about Punggol MRT station and the adjacent bus interchange.
Mark Your Calendar
- Dates: April 17 – May 2
- Location: Punggol MRT & Bus Interchange
- What to Expect: Classic night‑market fare – Ramly burgers, Thai milk‑tea, and a handful of other food‑ies.
TLK Events and Lighting, the brains behind the bistro, posted a cheerful reminder on Monday, April 4:
“Be sure to mark your calendars and expect the usual pasar malam food such as Ramly burgers, Thai milk tea and more!”
Why the Revival?
After a brief, pandemic‑induced lull, night markets have sprung back to life. Geylang Serai Ramadan Bazaar re‑opened its gates, and several nightlife spots are up and running again.
During Covid‑19 restrictions, many vendors either shuttered or moved their stalls to permanent locations. They told The Straits Times last year that sales dipped by 30–40% compared to the bustling bazaar days.
Other Good News
- Nam Seng Wanton Noodle has re‑opened at a fresh spot, still led by its legendary 92‑year‑old owner.
So, if you crave the taste of the city’s best street‑food, head over to Punggol and let the pasar malam fiesta ignite your night.
