Wang Cafe (Changi Airport)

Wang Cafe first started off in Bugis in 1953 and was known as Wang Jiao. Over the years, it has restructured,  revamped and rebranded itself and is now known as Wang Cafe. Having built up its reputation slowly, it has expanded into a chain of outlets specialising in serving kaya toast, soft boiled eggs, coffee and tea. A similar concept to Ya Kun and Toastbox. 
The outlet at Changi Airport Terminal 1 basement was filled to the brim with customers. Had to wait a fair bit before we managed to get a table. 
There was also a long queue as there was only one counter. I ordered the Chicken Macaroni Set which comes along with drink, Kaya Butter Toast and Chicken Macaroni Toast. Changed the drink to Milo.
Chicken Macaroni Set $6.20
This was what was served. Nothing fantastic about the milo and toast. In fact, the standard of the toast was terrible when compared to Ya Kun's version. 
Chicken Macaroni
The reason why I ordered Chicken Macaroni was because, I had wanted something soupy and is a Chinese dish (before I fly off to Europe).

The Chicken Macaroni was disappointing. The portion of chicken and macaroni given was pathetic and the soup was laden with MSG.

I can't believe that I wasted my last meal in Singapore having such food.. Even the food on the airplane tasted so much better. I am boycotting Wang Cafe.

I hope no one would be offended by the 'harsh' honest post..

  1. Haha that's too bad. Next time try the ramen at Changi, I think the selection there is pretty good.

    1. I went to the airport recently at night. It was closed by then. Never mind, there's always next time. There are several good restaurants there too such as Saboten, Paradise Inn, Crystal Jade.

  2. Must be below par level. Surprisingly the crowd loves this place. I also noticed that any food outlet in airports are always full of people. Its the same here also.

    1. Did not expect to be blown away. I thought that this should be a safe choice compared to laksa / mee rebus. But well.. I was wrong.

  4. stuff at the airport usually sucks, compared to their outlets in town (or anywhere else outside of the airport for that matter). not to mention their jacked up prices. best to stick to the safe, cannot-go-wrong stuff.
