Mook’s Mookata @ 936 Hawker Siglap
Today was one of those days. Two new finds in one day. You may have read the other review from today of Beer Basket? Well for dinner we did this place. Right at the back of 936 Hawker in Siglap, the one next to NTUC.
It’s great when new stalls open up in your local hawker and it so turns out that this one is an absolute belter. We literally got the double whammy of superb food today. Now I will admit I have been a critical observer to date as this place has been open a few weeks now and I have sort of put it off. Mookata in a hawker??? But, how surprised we were and I mean pleasantly surprised…
Mook’s Mookata @ 936 Hawker Siglap
What they say on their Facebook site is ‘cutesy’; “What is Mook’s? “Moo” means pig or pork and “kata” means pan in Thai & “Mookata” means Pork’s pan and as Mookata’s lovers, we called ourselves “Mook’s”.
As a family, we love Mookata. See our previous reviews of Mookata @ Katong, and Spicy Thai – Thai Cafe @ Bedok. So to have one of these in your local hawker is off the charts. Reminds me of days with Chef Greg and Khun Mookata in Siglap, the halcyon days of a Japanese Wagyu Mookata in a hawker… I have even bought my own and cooked this up a storm for the family at home – CLICK HERE.
So there it is folks Mook’s Mookata @ 936 Hawker Siglap. What an addition to the hawker. Our new BFF’s. All EastCoasters get your families in here and try this. The Mookata is incredible. And as an added advantage – we ate until bursting point. Beef Bulgogi, marinated pork, cheese sausages, Quail eggs, mushrooms, noodles, bacon, cheese, pork belly and and and… the list goes on and on – and when we got the bill it was… wait for it… $38. Holy crap. I nearly fell off my chair. Dinner for 4 in Siglap with some incredible food for less than a \$50. That’s insane. Oh yeah, and 1.5-pint long-necks for $6.50 Why would you go anywhere else? It’s a must-try – ENJOY!!!
