Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Yong Kang Food Court is a sprawling hawker centre in the Defu industrial area, offering a wide array of local and regional cuisines.

We note consistent praise for its spacious and comfortable environment, often bustling with a lively local crowd.

While many stalls receive positive mentions, the Fish Soup appears to be a standout, frequently drawing long queues.

Other popular options include the Sze Char, with dishes starting from $6 and a substantial Beef Hor Fun at $8, and Kim Ho Thai Food, offering a $6 pineapple fried rice set.

We think it's a solid choice for those in the vicinity looking for variety and reasonable prices, especially if you're willing to navigate the queues for popular stalls.

The food court is also noted for its unique offerings like savoury Tofu Brain from the China cold dishes store.

We'd recommend it for a casual, value-for-money meal, particularly if you're in the Hougang area and looking for a diverse selection.

What customers say

Yong Kang Food Court is generally well-regarded as a spacious and comfortable hawker centre offering a wide variety of affordable food options, particularly noted for its generous portions.

While some stalls, like the fish soup, can have long queues, the overall consensus is that the food is good and offers value for money.

The Sze Char stall and Kim Ho Thai Food are highlighted for their reasonable prices and tasty dishes, though some find the beef in the hor fun to be just 'quite ok'.
