1. Daily Mujo
Daily Mujo is a hidden under-HDB cafe with value-for-money mains under $18—a steal in this economy.

A lesser-seen brunch item is the Laksa Hokkien Mee ($11), which stars thick bee hoon in a rich and creamy laksa sauce, tau kwa, and tiger prawns. Otherwise, there’s also the Pandan Chicken Chop ($15): pandan-infused chicken paired with pineapple salsa, fries, and coleslaw. Daily Mujo offers local coffee too, in the form of the Kopi Latte ($4), AKA kopi bing topped with a creamy milk foam!
