Editor’s Note

Last updated 30 May 2026

Our take: Great Nanyang Heritage Cafe in Somerset offers a nostalgic dining experience with a focus on local Singaporean dishes.

We think their Kaya Toast Set stands out, with multiple reviewers praising the well-made toast, generous butter, and delicious kaya.

The coffee also receives consistent commendation.

For those seeking heartier options, the Nyonya Curry Laksa and Nasi Lemak with Curry Chicken are highlighted as strong choices, with one lunch set including laksa, a side, and a drink for $14.9.

While the decor and overall vibe are a draw, some feedback suggests service attentiveness could improve, and the background music can be a little loud.

We'd recommend this spot for a reliable and satisfying local meal, especially if you're in the mood for a classic kaya toast or a flavourful laksa.

It's best visited during weekday lunch or for an afternoon tea to avoid the weekend crowds.
