Tiong Bahru Golden Pig To Close After 70 Years In Operations

Those who frequent Tiong Bahru Market and Food Centre would be familiar with Original Tiong Bahru Golden Pig & Roasted, the only hawker that takes up two shop lots in the hawker centre. 

After some 70 years in operation, the roast meat stall will be closing for good as its owners Chan Pak Seng, 72, and his wife, Wee Ling Kue, 71, have finally decided to retire. The business was previously run by Chan's parents. 

According to a post in Facebook Group Uniquely Singapore Hawker Food, the stall's last day of operations will be on 9 February. The stall had humble beginnings in the 1950s as a pushcart and would usually be found parked next to the old Seng Poh Road Market and Eng Hoon Street.
