Best oyster omelettes in Singapore

Oyster omelette, also known as orh luak, is a local favourite that has found its way to the hearts of locals and tourists alike. The dish comprises fresh oysters and an egg and starch batter wok-fried over high heat, creating a medley of different textures despite the simplicity of the ingredients. Orh luak is typically complemented by a runny chilli sauce brightened with calamansi juice. This supper staple can be found at many hawker centres in Singapore. From the East to the West, be sure to check out the best oyster omelette stalls that will satiate your cravings!

Chomp Chomp Food Centre might be your go-to spot for those satay cravings, but residing in this famous hawker centre is another gem of a find: the oyster omelette. Priced from $6, Ang Sa Lee Fried Oyster nails this local fare with its generous portion of oysters, and a palatable ratio of starch to egg. Though the stall is said to have opened in 1958, making it one of the oldest stalls on this list, we hear that the original hawkers have since retired, so do note that what you’re getting isn’t the “original” any more!
