Traditional flavours made fresh daily — from our famous kaya toast to wok-kissed Hokkien mee.
From the first bite to the last sip — here's why Singaporeans queue for Bao Er.
Our kaya is made daily with real coconut milk — no shortcuts, no artificial flavours. Fragrant, custard-like, and utterly addictive.
Our Hokkien mee is fried over roaring flames for that smoky, caramelised flavour you can't fake. Every plate comes out blazing.

Quality food without the premium price tag. Kaya toast from $5, bee hoon from $3.50. Real hawker spirit, real value.
Featured across Singapore's top food publications.
The pandan kaya is intoxicatingly fragrant, luxuriously velvety, and meticulously balances sweetness. A serious contender for the best kaya toast in Singapore.
A rich blend of umami, smokiness and sweetness from the owners of Prawnography. The tiger noodle with prawns and pork belly is a feast.
Their bread is sourced from Jackson Bakery and twice-toasted to achieve an airily light, crisp texture. The kaya made from fresh coconut milk is next level.
Bao Er Cafe was born from the passion of Jeremy and his Vietnamese wife, Bao Er. What started as a simple dream to serve authentic local breakfast has grown into one of Singapore's most talked-about cafes.
Every morning, the kaya is made fresh with real coconut milk. The Hokkien mee is fried with ferocious wok hei — the same team behind Prawnography. No shortcuts, no compromises — just food made with love at Novena Gardens.
From their original stall to the new Fortune Centre outlet, Bao Er keeps it simple: quality ingredients, traditional methods, and prices that won't break the bank.
