Where to Eat Near Marine Parade MRT

Marine Parade MRT opened in 2024 right beside Parkway Parade, putting a large mall and the Blk 84 hawker centre within a few minutes' walk. For halal diners the pull is Parkway Parade's basement Kopitiam Food Hall, home to a Michelin Bib Gourmand HJH Maimunah nasi padang counter, halal Hainanese chicken rice and even halal Italian, plus MUIS-certified Malaysian, Thai and Western sit-downs upstairs. After that the guide runs through the mall's Chinese and Japanese restaurants and the neighbourhood food centre's duck rice, dim sum and prawn noodles, each grouped by cuisine and ordered by walking distance. Halal status is checked against the official MUIS register.

Point along the tray for beef rendang, sambal goreng, tahu telur and turmeric fried chicken over rice. MUIS halal-certified.

A quick, familiar plate a couple of minutes from Marine Parade MRT. MUIS halal-certified.

Muslim-owned · not MUIS-certified

The Muslim-run D'Authentic is the go-to halal name inside the Blk 84 food centre, best known for home-style nasi lemak — coconut rice with crispy chicken wings, sambal, ikan bilis and add-ons picked a la carte — with a sister stall doing mee rebus nearby. It's one of the few halal options in a food centre where most stalls serve pork, so expect a lunchtime queue. Muslim-owned; not MUIS-certified.

The Taiwanese chain that made xiao long bao famous keeps a busy outlet in Parkway Parade, a couple of minutes from the MRT.

Not halal-certified; prawn mee is traditionally pork-based and the stall carries no MUIS listing.
