Old Chang Kee at JEM (basement food street, 50 Jurong Gateway Road, phone: 6734 2945, operating 10:00am to 10:00pm daily) represents a legendary heritage food brand established in 1956 by Hainanese immigrant Chang Chuan Boon, who first set up a curry puff stall at Koek Road with no prior culinary experience. The iconic curry puff—featuring fried pastry encasing curried potatoes, fried chicken, and hard-boiled egg—captured the hearts of Singaporeans and became the foundation for a thriving business that relocated to Mackenzie Road in 1973 near the Rex Cinema, earning the popular moniker "Old Chang Kee" or "Rex" curry puffs. When Chang Chuan Boon retired in 1986, investor Han Keen Juan purchased the stall and revamped the business, sparking extraordinary growth into a respected chain exceeding 70 outlets across Singapore and Southeast Asia.

The menu showcases Old Chang Kee's signature crispy curry puffs paired with an extensive array of deep-fried snacks and quick meal options served primarily from takeaway counters at select locations. The curry puffs, priced accessibly since their 1956 inception, deliver the same authentic taste and texture that captured Singaporean affection for over six decades—golden, crispy pastry bursting with flavorful curried filling. Complementary fried snacks include fishballs, sotong head, spring rolls, and Chicken Wing OnStik, creating a comprehensive menu of beloved hawker favorites. Most outlets, including the JEM location, operate as casual takeaway destinations allowing customers to grab quick meals or snacks without extensive seating requirements.

Old Chang Kee maintains halal certification, ensuring accessibility to Muslim customers seeking authentic Singaporean fried snacks. The JEM location provides convenient basement food court access for shoppers and office workers seeking nostalgic comfort food or quick lunch options during mall visits. With over six decades of heritage dating to 1956, consistent quality, authentic flavors, widespread accessibility through 70+ outlets, and halal certification, Old Chang Kee represents Singapore's enduring culinary legacy—a beloved brand that has satisfied multiple generations of customers seeking genuine, affordable, flavorful fried snacks rooted in Singaporean food culture.
