Halal Food in Block 20 Toa Payoh

The coffeeshop at Block 20 Lorong 7 Toa Payoh serves one of Singapore's oldest and most established estates, a neighbourhood that has witnessed the nation's transformation from kampong villages to modern high-rise living. This block sits near Kim Keat Palm Market and Food Centre at Block 22, which houses 59 market stalls and 61 food stalls, making this corner of Toa Payoh a concentrated hub of everyday sustenance.\n\nKedai Makan Muhajirin has operated here for over 30 years, serving affordable nasi lemak, mee rebus, mee soto, and nasi padang to generations of Toa Payoh residents. Leek Hainanese Chicken Rice at Stall 3 keeps traditional hours, opening Tuesday to Saturday from 6am to 1pm and Sundays from 6am to noon, closing Mondays. In late April 2025, three hawker stalls from the nearby Prime Court coffeeshop at Block 18 relocated to Block 20 after Prime Court closed, bringing with them their regular customers and adding to the coffeeshop's offerings.\n\nFor long-time Toa Payoh residents, these neighbourhood kopitiams are more than dining venues - they are anchors of community memory, where the rhythm of daily life plays out over plates of economic rice and cups of kopi.
