Pies and kaya dessert among new items at Chin Mee Chin Confectionery's upcoming Nex outlet
It’s the 101-year-old institution's first-ever branch outside its iconic Katong shophouse. There will be both old and new bites here, mostly at the same prices.
Chin Mee Chin Confectionery, the 101-year-old institution, is set to open its first branch outside its famous Katong shophouse at Nex mall on August 8. The new outlet will offer both traditional and modern food options, with prices remaining the same as the original. Located near Serangoon MRT Station, the 26-seat self-service cafe will be open until 9.30 pm, allowing patrons to enjoy the confectionery's offerings for dinner.
The menu includes signature items like kaya buns (S$2.80 each) and luncheon meat buns (S$2.80), along with new additions such as sandwiches and savoury pies. The Nex outlet will not serve charcoal-toasted buns due to mall safety regulations, but will offer an electric grill alternative. The new lineup features a kaya custard choux au craquelin (S$3) and a range of sandwiches, including smashed fried chicken with sambal (S$10) and grilled kaffir lime chicken (S$8.80).
Other new items include a black pepper beef pie (S$4.80) and a pandan tea (S$3). The confectionery plans to introduce more items in the future, with the possibility of expanding to Katong if they are well-received.
