This family business has been around since 1938 and they still make popiah skins the traditional way – from scratch and by hand! They were known for their popiah skins before delving into the whole nine yards – creating a chewy popiah filled with ingredients such as turnips, carrots, beancurd, egg, prawn, and black sweet sauce. If you’re lucky, you may even catch the chefs in action, creating and twirling the delicate popiah layers.

Stuffed generously with mang kwang (turnip), beansprouts, egg, lettuce, and peanuts, this is truly some of the best popiahs you’ll find in Singapore.

A shop name can’t get anymore straightforward than this, and it goes without saying that this stall sells just three items in Maxwell Food Centre.

If you’re in Upper Thomson and looking for good popiah, head on over to Ping Kee Popiah.

Do request for more chilli if you prefer an extra kick, as their chilli is rather mild.

Located within East Coast Park, Lagoon Famous Carrot Cake is famous indeed and offers the best of both worlds – carrot cake and popiah.

A humble hawker stall in Whampoa, what’s special about 968 Popiah is they offer not only the standard Popiah, but also a unique Sushi Popiah! The filling is almost identical to that of the usual popiah – cooked turnip, hard-boiled eggs, and prawns. But the difference is that below the popiah skin, a sheet of nori seaweed is laid under it to emulate maki sushi! After layering the usual ingredients, an entire crabmeat stick is then rolled in. After that, mayonaise and their housemade chilli is added to it, which has chopped fresh garlic mixed in and gives an added kick to the dish!

It’s pretty rare to find soups, stews, salads and popiah all together, and you might think it’s a strange combination. Surprisingly, Souperstar executes them all really well. They are probably the first in Singapore to do burrito-style wraps using traditional popiah skin! You’ll find interesting choices here such as the Traditional Popiah, Sesame Chicken Popiah, Sweet Thai Chicken Popiah, Seafood Wasabi Mayo Popiah and Masala Chicken Popiah. They are rolled tight and served unsliced, which helps in preventing a mess while you eat.

Located a short walk away from Toa Payoh MRT, ABC’s popiah is different from any other popiah you’ll find in Singapore. The sweetness of the popiah sauce leans on the milder side and can almost be completely masked by the flavours from other ingredients. This one is great for those who dislike the sweet component of popiahs but can come across as bland for those who prefer more flavourful popiahs. Try it for yourself and see how you like it!

Opening Hours: 9 am–10 pm daily

Located at Block 79 a short walk from Macpherson MRT, the food centre is separated into two blocks, one serving vegetarian food, and the other serving your usual hawker fare. The best thing about the popiah at Tang Leng Chay Tar Kia Mee is the well-seasoned ingredients and how juicy it is. It has a really homely feel to it and eating this popiah invokes a sense of nostalgia. The only downside is that it seems to be lacking some textural contrast!

Address: 79 Circuit Rd, #01-98, Singapore 370079
Opening Hours: 11 am–9:30 pm daily

Warm stewed turnip, beansprouts, diced hardboiled egg, peanuts and bits of crispy garlic are wrapped firmly in crepe-thin popiah skin that leans hard and even slightly crunchy, adding a different texture to the dish. This popiah has no frills, but is so hearty and satisfying! While you’re here, give their carrot cake a try too.

Opening Hours: 10 am–10 pm daily

Another popiah stall located within Old Airport Road Food Centre, Fu Cheng’s rendition is well portioned, with the fillings tightly wrapped in a thin skin that is slightly crispy. The turnips are well-drained but perhaps slightly bland for those who prefer stronger flavours. Do ask for more chilli to get an extra kick and to balance out the sweetness of the sauce! It’s probably also worth a mention that the stall is halal-certified.
