Some places follow a trend. The Nanyang-style cafe is one of them. These spots are popping up across Singapore, selling nostalgia in an air-conditioned setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Wanglee Cafe<\/a><\/strong> is one such place, located in a Toa Payoh HDB block. This is a tricky location. In the heartlands, you are competing directly with hawker centres and markets. People here know what a good plate of bee hoon or ban mian should cost. Opening a cafe means charging at least 30% more for the same food, just with better seating and cooler air. It\u2019s a gamble. Occasionally, that premium works \u2014 when execution rises to meet the price point, like at Collin\u2019s @ Nex<\/a><\/strong>, where a heartland setting does not automatically mean compromised standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I was in Toa Payoh early. The cafe opens at 7 a.m., which is a point in its favour. I arrived around 7:40 a.m. and the place was already crowded<\/strong><\/strong>. The hype, it seems, has found an audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I ordered the economical bee hoon set. It came with vegetables, a fried egg, and luncheon meat. The portion of bee hoon was small. The flavours were standard. It was a serviceable plate of food, but nothing more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Next was the Ban Mian, their top recommendation<\/strong><\/strong>. The noodles had a decent texture, but I have had better from a hawker stall for half the price. The broth was simple. It lacked the depth that makes a bowl of ban mian truly comforting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Tall<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There were some bright spots. The soft-boiled eggs were cooked perfectly. The yolks were runny, the whites were just set. This is a simple thing, but many places get it wrong. The coffee was decent. We also tried the “Iced Coffee Volcano,” which was a theatrical, overflowing cup. It looked good for a photo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But here is the question: does the comfort of air-conditioning justify the higher price and average quality?<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For me, the answer is no<\/strong><\/strong>. This kind of food (the simple, honest breakfast of Singapore) belongs in a market. It tastes better there. It feels more authentic. It is part of the morning ritual, the steam, the noise, the efficiency. Spend a morning at Kim Keat Palm Market<\/a><\/strong>, and you are reminded why some meals do not need air-conditioning to feel complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Two<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When you take that food and put it in a clean, quiet cafe, something is lost. When you charge more for it, you raise expectations. And Wanglee Cafe, despite its crowd, did not meet them.
Will I be back?<\/strong><\/strong> Probably not. I prefer the markets. The food is better, and the price is honest. Wanglee Cafe sells an idea. I would rather just eat the food.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
