Curious about what goes on behind a hawker stall? Students from the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts’ Bras Basah.Bugis Youth Panel have put together a three-part short film series detailing the hawker journey of three different stalls in the Bras Basah.Bugis precinct. The team behind the series hopes to inspire Singaporeans of all ages to better appreciate Singapore’s hardworking hawkers.

Video 1: Warung Ramlah Muslim Food

Located at Waterloo Street, Warung Ramlah Muslim Food sells affordable nasi campur (Malay mixed rice) with accompanying dishes such as ayam lemak cili padi and rendang. Even though the shop was opened in 2019, the owner, Mdm Ramlah has been in the industry for the past 20 years, continuing her parents’ legacy. Join us behind the stalls as we hear the stories of how Mdm Ramlah overcame adversity and stayed resilient during her hawker journey.  This video is also accompanied by a dance interpretation by local dance group, D’Aura.

Well-known for Indian food such as briyani and prata, the 24-hour restaurant is well-known for its affordable and authentic Indian food.
