In a glorious attempt to Make Yishun Great Again, Northpoint City recently underwent a massive transformation and now boasts a plethora of new stores on various floors and extended wings. To help you conquer the best of Northpoint City food offerings, here’s our guide to nine must-visit stores!
Best Northpoint City Food Stores
1. Kanshoku Ramen Bar
A healthier option among heavy and oily ramen broths, Kanshoku Ramen Bar prides itself on not using additional MSG or preservatives. Kanshoku translates literally to ‘finish food’, something you’ll definitely do given how delicious Kanshoku’s Hakata ramen offerings are! Dressed with minimal toppings, the tonkotsu pork broth differentiates itself by feeling lighter than its creamier counterparts. Kanshoku continually innovates to let fans experience different flavours and currently offers seven types of ramen. Don’t forget to add an ajitama egg to complete your bowl of ramen!
Must Try Dish – Truffle Ramen dry ($16.90) is the ramen bar’s signature dish and is a must try for ramen fans! Served with shaved Italian truffle and doused in truffle oil, the dish is completed with caramelised charshu slices and sous vide egg.
Unit Number: B1-151
Opening Hours: Daily, 11am – 10pm
2. JinJja Chicken (진짜 치킨)
Inspired by South Korea’s culture of street food and doing things quickly, JinJja Chicken is quickly spreading its own idea of fast and casual eating through Northpoint City food stores and throughout Singapore. By pairing its yummy chicken with traditional Korean fare like JjamPong and Kimbab, JinJja Chicken strives to provide options beyond chicken burgers and sandwiches. Far from the norm of most Korean Fried Chicken outlets, JinJja Chicken has also gone the extra mile of ensuring Halal Certification for Muslim customers!
Must Try Dish – The 18 Pieces Wing combo ($19.90) is highly recommended, especially if you’re heading to JinJja Chicken as a large group! Choose from three different flavours: Soy Garlic, Spicy (YangNyeom) and Monster. Unlike most of the competition, the wings provide a lip-smacking crunch by retaining its juiciness as you munch on the well-seasoned skin. For those feeling up to it, take on the Monster sauce chicken for a spicy zing that’s guaranteed to provide a tongue-melting challenge.
Unit Number: 01-145
Opening Hours:
Sunday – Thursday: 11am – 10pm
Friday – Saturday: 11am – 11pm
3. Big Fish Small Fish
From its initial Punggol East Container Park beginnings, Big Fish Small Fish has become one of the best places to get freshly fried British-style Fish and Chips. Choose from four mouthwatering types of fish and seven unique sauces to dip your crisps in! A light, golden-brown batter envelopes each fillet and tantalizes the taste buds with its succulent flesh. Also, Big Fish Small Fish serves customers with generous thinly-sliced crisps so they are bound to leave with a filled belly.
Must Try Dish – The Dory Fish ($7.90) option is definitely value-for-money when it comes to Northpoint City food! The chunky fillet possesses creamy tender flesh wrapped in a satisfyingly crunchy batter casing. These two parts combined delivers a satisfying experience every time.

4. Feng Food
Up for traditional Taiwanese dishes? Check out Feng Food, a Northpoint City food restaurant dedicated to serving authentic Hakka food! Appearance-wise, the restaurant’s attention to decor detail and overall ambience is impressive. The traditional decor gives the place a delightful charm not seen in high-end Chinese restaurants. From Hakka Styled Braised Meat Rice to Pork Wontons, you’ll be hard pressed to find more affordable Taiwanese dishes than the offerings at Feng Food.
Must Try Dish – Braised Beef Knife-Shaved Noodles ($10.80) is a must try Northpoint City food dish here! While most places compromise on noodle consistency, the dao xiao mian’s thickness is consistent and void of any starchiness. The pork chop slices were also glazed with a flavourful marinade that pairs well with the succulent pork meat.

5. Collin’s
Famous for their Mibrasa charcoal oven-grilled meat, Collin’s was first established as a way of bringing affordable restaurant-quality Western fare to Singapore. Since its humble coffee shop origins, Collin’s has managed to achieve a strong local presence boasting 21 outlets islandwide. Choose from over 100 main courses with a menu that’s constantly changing every six months, ensuring that repeat visits to Collin’s are never dull!
Must Try Dish – We would recommend the Grilled Chicken Chop ($11.50) if you could only try one dish. The grilled meat of the chicken chop remains tender and the hefty serving of black pepper sauce complements its smoky taste. Moreover, the spaghetti is al-dente and extremely flavourful because of the creamy base, ranking itself among dedicated pasta chains.

You’ll also get to choose from six different fillings for each item, ranging from spicy grilled chicken to slow roasted beef. Each type is a flavourful blend of cuts that guarantees to pack a savoury punch.
Must Try Dish – If you can only choose one, go for the hard tacos with spicy grilled steak filling (Set of 3 for $11.50)! Encased in crisp corn tortilla, GYG drenches the imported Australian steaks in GYG’s Chipotle marinade. This provides the necessary heat and flavour to tingle your taste buds.

The nutritious green tea dough is meshed with 12 cereal types and fermented while the black rice dough is rich in fibre and antioxidants.
Must Try Dish – Cheese fans have to try the Real BBQ Chicago pizza ($26.90). It’s served on fluffy black rice dough and stuffed with 600g of mozzarella cheesy goodness!

FatPapas also feature thick, hearty milkshakes, ranging from classic Vanilla to Gula Melaka.
Must Try Dish – Searching for the next Northpoint City food challenge? Psst… We’re going to share with you a must try item from FatPapas’s secret menu. Stuffed with two monstrous servings of mashed potato, fries, bacon, country fried steak and finished with more bacon and cheese, the Country Fried Sheikh Burger ($22) is definitely not for the weak-hearted!

9. Chateraise
Rounding out this list of must try Northpoint City food stores is Chateraise.

Using the freshest ingredients from Japan, Chateraise whips up a wealth of tasty dessert options, ranging from sumptuous baked cheese tarts to fluffy mille crepe cakes! Chateraise also imports its cakes directly from Japan, upholding a high standard and ensuring that they both look and taste amazing.
Must Try Dessert – If you could only try one, do choose the Legendary Fresh Cream Cake ($5.10). The airy sponge pairs well with the lightness of the cream, allowing you to take multiple bites without being overwhelmed. Topped off with fresh strawberry chunks to balance the sweetness, each of these elements combine to create something truly special. Chateraise has outdone themselves with this deceptively simple masterclass of a cake.
