Haig Road Putu Piring brings nearly four decades of traditional Malay kueh excellence to East Village, continuing a family legacy that dates back to the 1930s with recipes passed down through five generations of skilled kueh makers. This Netflix-featured establishment, run by Nooraisha Hashim, earned the prestigious Michelin Plate award in 2019 for their authentic steamed rice cakes that represent Singapore's rich Peranakan culinary heritage.
Each order of putu piring features delicate steamed rice flour cakes filled with premium palm sugar and crowned with freshly grated coconut lightly seasoned with salt, creating the perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors. The signature Brown Coconut Putu Piring elevates this traditional treat with house-made grated coconut filling enhanced with gula melaka, while all varieties are made fresh, assembled and steamed on-site to ensure optimal texture and temperature.
Located conveniently in East Village's air-conditioned environment, this outlet offers exceptional value with five pieces for $2.50, making authentic traditional kueh accessible to both locals and visitors exploring Singapore's heritage foods. The combination of time-honored recipes, quality ingredients, and expert craftsmanship continues to attract food enthusiasts seeking genuine taste experiences that connect them to Singapore's multicultural culinary traditions.
It is a take away only stall in East Point. Brought 4 original putu piring for $3.50, which is quite pricey. Came will lots of coconut shaving and tasted good when still hot and warm. After 3 hours, taste quality dropped a lot.

Putu piring at this branch is nice and tasty. Often there is a queue for this snack especially during lunch time. The people here are friendly and polite.

Prices for the putu piring are a little steep, but to be expected for todays' market.

Putu Piring was stuck together and broken even before me touching them probably cos the leaves between them were too small. Coconut was a bit dry. Aunties were very nice

Feb24: Putu piring is good, my family likes the Gula Melaka flavor one. Really fragrant
Jan25: Update, still fragrant but the filling seems to be lesser than last time, across multiple outlets :(
