Wow Wow West To Reopen ABC Brickworks Food Centre Stall After Previously Announcing Possible Closure

Wow Wow West Will Reopen Stall At ABC Brickworks Food Centre On 16 Jan

Last year, popular Western food stall Wow Wow West Genuine at ABC Brickworks Food Centre announced its plan to close down if the owners failed to find a buyer for the business, much to the devastation of customers.

It looks like the closure is not happening after all. On 29 Dec, Wow Wow West revealed that it will be reopening for business on 16 Jan 2024.

It also confirmed that it will not be closing down and just needed a break.

Wow Wow West to reopen stall in Jan

In a Facebook post on 29 Dec, Wow Wow West Genuine shared news of its reopening.

Thanking its supporters, the stall gave updates that it won’t be shuttering and customers can look forward to its food in 2024.

In an attached picture, the admins wrote that they just needed a “longer break”.

“We are going to continue to bring our yummy western food to all of you next year,” Wow Wow West Genuine said. “See you soon on 16 Jan 2024.”

Initially announced search for a buyer

In October last year, the stall announced that its business was up for sale and the owners were on the search for a buyer to take over operations.

The reason for the move was that 61-year-old Yu Yuyan — who runs the stall with her husband, Huang Jincai, 59 — suffered an aneurysm a few years ago and was hospitalised for a month.

As they felt they needed to take care of their health, they expressed their intention to sell the business and their recipes.

At the time, their eldest daughter, Huang Shiya, had said that even if there was no suitable buyer, her family would “let go” of the business because her mother’s health remained their priority.

Having started as a canteen stall at Raffles Institution (RI) in 1999, Wow Wow West Genuine undoubtedly holds much significance for those who frequent the eatery.

Therefore, this news of the stall continuing to operate at ABC Brickworks Food Centre came as welcome news to its regular patrons.
