Ghalia & Gaza

Hungry and contemplating a meal at Gadong Properties, caught sight of this quaint little place across the street.


Perhaps it was the name, but I initially thought this place sells food of Middle Eastern origins. It reminds me of small Sydney delis run by the Lebanese selling hommus and Greek salads.

So me and the Significant Other went across the street to look a little closer. This is what stands out:

CHANGI CHICKEN RICE - $2.00

Curiousity hugely aroused, we went in.

Note: Don't push the door. Pull. It won't open if you push.



Not at all like the Sydney delis. It is designed with minimalism in mind, splashed with rich shades of cinnamon and burgundy. The space is small, yet cosy. Warm lights are put in strategic places and it gave the place a somewhat retro 70s feel to it.

Ordered the bidollar meal.


It was delicious. To the extent that, we devoured every single bite in silence. No sound of talking. Only occasional grunts of approval.




Until it was all gone.

Remember the name. Ghalia and Gaza. Try it. Like it.
