Be amongst the first in Singapore to explore Song Fa Kway Chap’s new outlet at Food Opera @ ION Orchard! The outlet marks Singapore’s first quick service concept that focuses on doling out traditional Teochew-style kway chap. Song Fa Kway Chap was born out of a desire to share a common love for the homespun dish, as well as the treasured recipes of Madam Tan Bee Hoon, wife of Song Fa Bak Kut Teh’s founder Yeo Eng Song. While ubiquitous, kway chap is commonly found in hawker centres or coffee shops — the new outlet aims to bridge this gap by bringing the dish to a luxury shopping mall, allowing both locals and tourists convenient access to savour it.
From the original Michelin Bib Gourmand family, Song Fa Kway Chap is a second-generation owned concept that aims to introduce a new experience on a classic favourite. To bring braised signatures across generations – through founding chef Madam Tan’s lifelong passion for cooking authentic dishes everyone will remember. For Madam Tan, cooking was never just about the motion. Cooking starts from the heart and follows a feeling. It’s an expression through an intimate slow braise. A bold celebration of spices. A culmination of complex flavours. At the core of timeless ingredients.
Since 1975, the braised creations have been a well-loved speciality for our Bak Kut Teh stall. Inspired by its growing popularity, we’ve faithfully adopted Madam Tan’s recipe here with an expanded, easy-to-order variety made for modern casual diners. Preserved through the ages with love. Presented simply, traditionally, for many more ages to come.
This is the essence of Song Fa Kway Chap.
