🇸🇬 Tanjong Pagar | ~$10 Lunch Set with tong shui

Hey fellow corporate warriors! 💼 Bored of your daily caifan or chicken rice, but don't want to break the bank just to treat yourself? You have to check this out!

✨ ~$10+- for a Main + Dessert/Drink (No GST or service charge!). Honestly, finding a deal like this right in the CBD is super worth it!

✨ Perfect portions—just enough to keep you satisfied, and the desserts aren't overly sweet at all.

𝐏𝐫𝐨 𝐭𝐢𝐩: If you're coming with a group, order an extra shaved ice to share! Before heading back to the office, grab a bottle of their homemade sour plum drink. It's packed with ingredients, tastes totally authentic, and isn't too sweet—absolute bliss on a hot day ☀️

... Read moreAs someone who often works in the CBD, I've found Meeting You at Tanjong Pagar to be a real gem for lunch breaks. The ~$10 set lunch offers great value, especially with no added GST or service charges, which is quite rare for that area. The portion sizes are just right—not too big to leave you sluggish for the afternoon, but satisfying enough to curb your hunger. What really sets this lunch spot apart is their homemade sour plum drink. It’s refreshing and not overly sweet, which makes it perfect for Singapore's humid weather. I've also tried the shaved ice desserts, and sharing it with colleagues adds a fun and cooling element to the meal. Plus, the tong shui options like red bean and grass jelly provide authentic local flavors with a modern touch. Meeting You's wonton noodles are a standout too. The wontons are handmade with quality ingredients you can see and taste in every bite. This meal combo offers a balanced mix of warmth from the noodles and light sweetness from the tong shui desserts, making it an excellent midday pick-me-up. For corporate workers craving a break from typical caifan or chicken rice, this place combines affordability, taste, and portion control which is not often found in the CBD lunch scene. I highly recommend grabbing a bottle of their sour plum drink before returning to work—it's a refreshing digestif that helps cool you down and aids digestion. Overall, Meeting You at Tanjong Pagar is a lunch spot I keep returning to for a satisfying meal that won’t hurt my wallet, making the busy office days a bit more enjoyable.
