With Singaporeans being such avid foodies, our island never seems to be short of good cafés. But this café in Novena is slightly different.
On top of having great food, they are run by a group of Pioneer Generation elderly well into their 70s.
Located beside Velocity at Novena, Coffee Tulip is well-known for its simple yet wholeheartedly delicious local dishes.
Let’s take a look at what people love about the place.
According to a post in the Facebook group Hawkers United – Dabao 2020, the store belongs to Uncle Lawrence’s handicapped daughter. He is helping her run it.

For a very reasonable price of under $10, customers can savour local dishes such as char kway teow and garlic fried rice.
What’s on the plate here seems pretty standard — fried luncheon meat, egg and bee hoon. But according to one patron who wrote a Facebook review of the place, it’s the simplest food that’s hardest to be perfect.
Many customers marvel at how Coffee Tulip infuses simple, comfort food like these with distinct flavours.
Another dish the café is famed for is their kimchi fried rice with a side of homemade soup.
Replying to the Facebook post, many netizens mentioned that they’ve paid a visit to the café. What’s more, they loved the food there.
One shared that they were very satisfied with the classic bee hoon set. Beside commending the “perfect” fried egg, they also gave a “thumbs up” for their signature chilli.
One netizen mentioned how the homecooked garlic fried rice is very comforting to their tummy.
Another recommended the kimchi fried rice and braised pork chop.
And according to the OP, apart from the “best” luncheon meat, their fried bee hoon is so popular they are sold out pretty fast.
