Need a new food spot? Food Junction at Junction 8 is back with a nostalgic 80s retro diner concept, featuring 17 food options for you to savour your meals.

The newly renovated thematic food atrium highlights several stalls such as Shabu Bar, Myung Ga II Minipress, Cha Han, and Zhang Ji Yun Jiao. To add to the atmosphere of a retro diner, stall assistants are also dressed to look the part. How adorable.

Here’s a miniguide for you to reference before you head down.

Most of us are no strangers to hot pot, but what if you could have it in a food court, Sukiya-style?

Shabu Bar, specialising in Japanese-style shabu shabu, has been serving hot pot with a fusion twist in a food court setting, since 1993.

Diners can enjoy individual hotpots, perfect for when you want a pot of your own, or if you’d just like to explore different flavours.

Soup flavours include Signature Chicken Broth, Tomato Boost, and Mala Hype. Pair your soup bases with either the Tender Boneless Chicken Set (S$12.90), US Beef Shortplate Set (S$14.90), or the Seafood Supreme Set (S$15.90).

Ever had Myung Ga II? Now you don’t have to travel to Tanjong Pagar or Bukit Timah, just for this popular Korean restaurant. 

Enjoy their signatures including Myung Ga II’s Mul-Naengmyeon (S$9.90), viral Donkatsu (S$12.90), and Seafood Pancake (S$16).

Paired with special house spice blends, the Mul-Naengmyeon is a refreshing and authentic bowl of cold noodles with broth made from pear and radish. It certainly sounds like something I would order when I’m there.

Cha Han

If you’re torn between Japanese food and fried rice, opt for Cha Han, which means “fried rice” in Japanese.

This beloved garlic fried rice promises an irresistible aromatic experience with the use of a specially treated garlic and signature oil, and a one-of-a-kind technique to look in the flavour and fragrance of the dish.

Cha Han’s menu includes Egg Fried Rice with Teriyaki Chicken (S$8.30), Chicken Egg Fried Rice with Chicken Scrambled Egg (S$9.30), Garlic Fried Rice with Tender Steak Cubes (S$16.80), and more.

To commemorate their reopening, from 14 September to 31 October 2025, BreadTalk Group Rewards App members can redeem over S$20 worth of vouchers, only at S$9.90

These vouchers include four S$2 eVouchers, two small Hot Kopi/Teh vouchers, and four vouchers with 15% off a minimum spend of S$8.

I can’t wait to try them all! Be there or be square!
