MixRice 南洋饭王 brings the warmth of old Nanyang kopitiam culture into a compact, modern economy-rice stall at 304 Ubi Avenue. We anchored the space with patterned encaustic floor tiles and warm timber fretwork panels that nod to heritage shophouse craft, then paired them with a marble-look serving counter for a clean, hygienic front of house. Backlit menu screens keep the dish display crisp and easy to read, while hanging lanterns and a glowing drinks chiller add a nostalgic, inviting glow. Compact dine-in seating with timber tables and bentwood chairs makes the most of a small footprint without feeling cramped. The result is a stall that feels rooted in tradition yet reads as fresh, tidy and appetising — a heritage story told through materials, light and warm detailing that draws hungry customers in.
