Supper spots in the North where you can get hotpot, dim sum and mookata at 12am

When it comes to satisfying our late-night hunger pangs, supper spots that come to mind are usually located in the East, West or Central parts of Singapore. The North, not so much.

This doesn't mean there is a lack of late-night spots up in the North though. We've looked and found a number of scrumptious supper places that you can consider the next time you're in the area during the wee hours of the morning. Think hotpot, dim sum and mookata spots that are open till as late as 6.30am.

Similar to the previous supper lists that we have for the East, West and Central areas of Singapore, we will be leaving out frequently visited and popular establishments such as McDonalds, Hai Di Lao and Al-ameen.

BKK Bistro & Bar

For 80 cent boat noodles like those you'll find in Thailand, check out BKK Bistro & Bar. As It's located at ORTO, a 24-hour multi-recreational park, it's the perfect place to fill your tummy after a spot of late-night prawning.

Diners can customise their boat noodles, choosing their preferred noodles, soup base and toppings. If you don't fancy eating multiple small servings, opt for the medium or super-sized bowl.

Besides boat noodles, there are also other Thai dishes on the menu, including Pineapple Fried Rice Topped with Chicken Floss, Glass Noodle Seafood Salad and Traditional Thai Mango Sticky Rice.

Few people living in the North won't know about Chong Pang Nasi Lemak since it's one of the more popular nasi lemak spots in Singapore and they're open till late at night. The eatery is known for their cai fan-style service, allowing diners to pick and choose what ingredients they want.
