Hougang Central Market is a market in Hougang, Singapore. It holds a Google rating of 4.0 from 34 reviews.
A good market is judged on the freshness of its produce and meat, and on how stallholders handle their goods. Morning visits usually give the best choice, since fish, vegetables and bread are freshest before the midday rush. It helps to check the cold items at the bottom of a stall and to ask when a delivery came in. Regulars tend to buy from the same few stallholders, who learn their preferences and keep the best pieces aside.
Hougang is a large residential town with many local shops and food stalls, which makes this market a practical place to buy groceries close to home.
