Vegetarian Options in Singapore

Breakfast

  • Cheong Fun
  • Chee Kueh
  • Vegetarian Ba Chang

Breakfast/Lunch

  • Economic Bee Hoon can be found in every or most hawker centres, and many coffee shops. Prior to being veggie, this was already one of my favourites.

All-Day

  • Economic Rice. Be careful of little pieces of meat in veggie dishes, and I hear the veg-only dishes may be cooked with chicken stock as well.
  • Nasi Padang (sometimes available at Nasi Lemak stalls) has lots of veggies options like eggplant, tempeh, long beans, egg.
  • Murtabak
  • Roti Prata
  • Porridge with century egg. Mushroom is less common. (Thicker)
  • Teochew Porridge with dishes (More watery)
  • Fried Carrot Cake
  • Char Kway Teow without sausage or cockles
  • Rojak (“Chinese salad” of cucumbers etc in peanut sauce)
  • I’ve found veggie versions of Kway Chup and Chicken Rice, which I love. You can look for which hawker centres have them on abillion, a crowdsourced websites of veggie options across all types of restaurants.

Pescatarian

  • Yong Tau Fu. Ask for it dry as the soup version is likely to be made with pork bones.
  • Dry Fish Ball Noodle. Ask for no pork fat, or soup.
  • Hokkien Mee without pork (fat)
