Planning on sharing some Chinese cuisine with your Muslim friends?

Head down to Yi Zun Noodle, Singapore’s first Muslim-owned hand-pulled la mian noodle store that serves authentic beef noodles originating from Xinjiang.

At just $9.80, you’d be able to get your hands on a hearty bowl of beef noodle soup. 

Although the store’s main star is their beef noodles, their menu also includes many other dishes like dim sum and even a local favourite – mala xiang guo.

Mookata is usually prepared in a non-halal manner, hence not allowing our Muslim friends to enjoy the full experience. 

However, the team behind Astons, which many of us would know for their affordable steaks, recently opened up a mookata restaurant, Sedap Mania.

Not only is this mookata place Halal-certified, it is also extremely affordable.

For just $10 per person, you’d be able to get the real deal, which includes all your seafood, meat and soup choices.

Are you perhaps looking for a place that serves something different from your usual lunch or dinner choices? How about something light for one of those tea-time meet-ups with your friends?

Pita Bakery serves Middle Eastern cuisine ranging from breads, falafel, dips and many more. Their signature dish would of course be their pitas, which is a type of Middle Eastern bread.

If you’re not familiar with Middle Eastern cuisine, fret not as they’ve got a sharing platter for $25 where you can try almost everything on their menu.

Besides being a Halal-certified restaurant, Pita Bakery is also vegan and kosher-friendly.

Simply add $5 to your order to enjoy having melted cheese all over your plate of food.

In addition to main dishes such as spicy mushroom arrabiata pasta, they also serve brunch and desserts such as pancakes and brownies.
