    Komala Vilas

    This McDonald’s of Indian fare serves decent, cheap vegetarian meals all day long. Try some spicy samosas (stuffed pastries), or order the thali. Its outlet at 82 Serangoon Rd sells sugary Indian sweets.

    Hotel Venite Restaurant

    With colourful graffiti covered walls and half a dozen tiny balconies hanging over the street this Latin flavoured restaurant is the perfect spot to pause for one of their delicious milkshakes and a light snack.

    Ou Mun Café

    This much-loved cafe has a full menu but you see more Macanese and Portuguese customers coming in for its freshly made Portuguese-style pastries, chocolates and coffee than for its savoury dishes.

    Dolma Momo Center

    This is typical of the Tibetan eateries dotted around town - it's just a hole in the wall, and momos and a few stains are the only things on the menu. But the momos are excellent, and they're top value.

    Bijou

    You’ll know this place is Swiss-owned when you see fondue (advance order, Rs 2000) and other Swiss and German specialities on the menu. It mixes up such heavy dishes with a wide range of seafood.
