Old Chang Kee

This is an icon of sorts, arguably the most famous curry puff in Singapore, with multiple outlets across the nation and even in the region. It is a people arpleaser version, quite different from the bolder original rendition at Mackenzie Road decades ago. The curry spice rempah is easy on bold aromatics and chilli. You taste the curry but not the sting and the wedge of egg and soft potatoes are moist and on point. They offer a range of other version and notable is the Chicken Puff, done like a pie but sans all the curry spices. The creamy chicken stock and little chunks with the potatoes makes this one very easy to like, especially for the kids etc..

It says Hainanese style, which means it comes fat, with a crumbly thin buttery crust filled with moist curry potatoes, chicken and a wedge of egg. The spice level is pleasant and will please many who fear the heat. They also offer a sardine’s version which is also moist and gently spicy, but many go straight for the potato/chicken version first. The Tham family had been operating this brand for decades and a younger generation, helmed by Bren, is leading the charge now.
