Guide to the best food places to eat in Tengah

Tengah may be the newest kid on the HDB block, but don’t be fooled into thinking it’s still as ulu as before. While online chatter often laments the lack of food options, we’ve dug deep to uncover the 10 best Tengah food spots that prove that the new BTO estate doesn’t fall short with its range of cosy cafes, home-based businesses, and popular eateries.

1. Tea Dot

Nestled within a cluster of HDB flats along Tengah Garden Walk, Tea Dot is a unique cafe that specialises in “bubble tea” on tap, infused with a herbal twist. One of the first things that will catch your eye is its rows of taps, each fitted with a screen showcasing the ingredients in every drink. Herbal tea options include Jujube Longan ($4.90), Snow Pear Fungus ($4.90), and even a distinctive Purple Sweet Potato ($4.90).

They also offer unconventional bubble tea flavours such as Duck Sh*t Oolong ($2.90) and Dragon Well ($2.90), with the option to add toppings for an additional $1.10. Make sure to give their gelato selection (from $4.90) a taste as well, with flavours including Dark Cacao Intense. Yogurt Speculoos, and Banana Chocolate.
