Has severe RBF but is fairly jolly and carefree on the inside. Degree of life satisfaction is heavily influenced by food.

Food Junction at Great World has a stunning alfresco dining spot and now, the interior seating area has been revamped with a stylish look and new food stalls.

Ambience at Food Junction Great World

The newly renovated Food Junction has a charming train-themed interior inspired by Tanjong Pagar Railway Station. Food stalls look like old-school train carriages while walkways resemble train platforms. At the centre of attention is a "train track" illuminated by a LED digital ceiling that stretches across 22 metres.

This digital installation plays a mini show periodically with a new display every three months; keep an ear out for the 'choo choo' steam train sound that indicates when the video projection will start.

The food court offers a mix of food stalls and mini restaurants that have their own designated seating areas.

Der Biergarten

This mini restaurant's specialties include Crispy Pork Knuckle and Guiness Braised Beef Cheeks with Mashed Potato ($18.90). I tried the latter which gets two thumbs up! The tender beef almost fell apart with a fork and didn't have the characteristically intense beefy taste of that cut.

They also have cold German draft available all day, sausage platters and bar bites.

Hungry Korean

Founded by former Mediacorp artiste Cassandra See, this mini restaurant offers fusion homecooked-style Korean dishes as well as soju and makgeolli cocktails.

Their Signature Pork Collagen Soup with Rice ($8.90) had a comforting, "mum's cooking" taste as promised, with a nourishing full-bodied flavour and rich texture.

Viet Taste

Before the renovation, this mini restaurant would always have a snaking queue every time I passed by, and it's no wonder why! Helmed by native Vietnamese staff, the stall has a loyal following for its authentic and healthy food.

Our favourite dish of the bunch, the Hanoi BBQ Pork Noodles ($8.80) came with assorted meats that were well-marinated and had a satisfying smoky flavour. It paired perfectly with the light and refreshing noodles which had a subtle crunch and tang.

What The Fish

Ordering the trendy giant grilled fish on a hotplate is quite the commitment, but that's not the case here as this stall offers single serving grilled fish for solo diners.

The Sea Bass Half Fish in Golden Tantalising Punch ($12.80) has fresh and tender fish simmering in a flavourful pumpkin and sauerkraut sauce that packed a spicy punch.

You can now enjoy tze char-style dishes and fish head steamboat in the air-conditioned comfort of this food court's mini restaurant. Try the Red Grouper Fish Head Mini Hotpot ($28 for 1 - 2 pax) and Signature Prawn Paste Chicken ($8) .
