Kim Choo’s Nonya Kitchen

Long a Singapore mainstay for Nonya (Chinese and Malay) cuisine, Kim Choo’s built its reputation on fragrant rice dumplings—which it stuffs and steams in 12 varieties, from chili prawns to minced pork and winter melon. Rounding out the menu are more traditional dishes, like the beef rendang, a savory stew flavored with rempah, a mixed herb-and-spice blend with chile peppers, galangal, turmeric, and lemongrass. Order takeout or grab a seat at one of the restaurant’s 18 tables.
