Food Junction at NEX has a new look & new stalls like Yuen Kee Dumpling & Song Fa Express
NEX is almost like a second home to me. This sprawling mall is the largest one in the North-East, and is packed with dozens of dining options. It even has 2 whole food courts – Food Republic, located at B2, and Food Junction, located at level 4. The latter closed for renovations on 17 Feb 2025, and has just reopened with a fresh new look and over 20 stalls.
The food court's signage is now a cheery bright yellow. Inside, diners can spot art prints and a large pair of googly eyes on the wall at the back of the food court. It's also running daily promotions for the entirety of April.
One of the more anticipated stalls is Yuen Kee Dumpling, a popular Chinese dumpling brand which has another outlet in Fortune Centre. When I visited Food Junction, the stall wasn't ready yet, but it is expected to be operational soon.
Go Teppan Go is your go-to for teppanyaki – it seemed to be popular with patrons as all the seats were fully occupied.
Carnivore Dongbei Braised Meat sells various braised meat rice platters. I spotted intriguing dishes like Pork Spine Bone with Rice (S$7.90), which sounds incredibly metal. There's also Beef Shank with Rice (S$10.90) and a vegetarian option in the form of Mixed Braised Vegetables Rice with Braised Egg (S$5.50).
Heng Heng Herbal Soup specialises in boiled soups, with comfort dishes like ABC Pork Ribs Soup (S$7.90) and Fish Maw Pork Tripe Pepper Soup (S$10.90).
Everyone's favourite sizzling hot-plate rice, Pepper Lunch Express, returns as well.
Song Fa Kway Chap Express is a spin off from the famous Michelin Bib Gourmand Song Fa Bak Kut Teh. You can get braised items such as intestines, duck, and kway chap here.
