Nice halal food court in the HDB Canberra estate. The stalls offer budget meals. It has a clean, air-conditioned environment.

I ordered fish fillet with rice at the western food stall. Instead of serving me a piece of fillet like in the picture, he served me only 4 bites of fish. This is way too misleading and honestly a scam. I paid $9.90 for it too. I will never eat at this western food stall ever again!

My husband ordered fried fish soup for me here. The auntie was so rude. I feel like people who come here to work, especially in F&B, should really learn the basics of English. Don't have to be smooth in the language. Then she got angry at my husband because he couldn't understand Chinese (my husband is Malay 😭). We don't mind that, actually. But when we ordered, we asked to separate the fish because it's fried and it will be soggy by the time he reaches home. But Auntie didn't. So my husband told her he had requested to separate the fish. But Auntie scolded him for requesting so... All I can say is: Auntie, I'm sorry my husband cannot speak Chinese, but don't scold him, la. We also never scolded you for not understanding English! Fried Fish Stall, I hope you have at least one English-speaking person to help her out... We requested for milk to be added to the soup, but she didn't add it either. My husband was already too lazy to ask, fearing Auntie would scold him again.

I only had YTF here, as it's a typical YTF stall found in food courts. The food is edible, and service is quick. Paying with the NTUC app entitles you to a 10% discount, making it quite affordable. The one thing I cannot stand is that patrons are already doing their due diligence to self-return their trays. However, the cleaner auntie (the one with a hairband and apron) just sits there like Dua Pek Gong, using her phone, drinking kopi, and people-watching. She seemingly doesn't bother to wipe tables that are either wet or dirtied by food. The other cleaner was okay and quite proactive, but she was busy clearing the self-return rack. Also, the first cleaner could take trays from the stall to re-wipe them on the table shown in the third picture, yet she couldn't wipe the crumbs and clean that particular table. Instead, she moved to another, already clean, table to wipe the trays. I truly cannot understand! Also, if you are having breakfast before 9 AM, be prepared to feel very warm in here. The plaza management only turns on the air conditioning from 9 AM onwards.

Good food, good service, and excellent cleanliness. It’s so nice that I ate the utensils too. (After picture posted)

Here's the edited review: This food court, nestled right in the middle of Canberra Plaza, is a haunt for reasonably priced, okay food when you don't feel like paying extortionate prices. I tried the Malay Chicken Rice stall (HALAL). It was lovely, and the portion was quite big for my liking (which is good!). Clearly, inflation has left this place untouched, and I trust I'll be back. The coffee stall offers a popular set of coffee, eggs, and toast, providing ample competition to the Ya Kun two storefronts down. Definitely try this place if you're around.

The wait wasn't long, and the air conditioning was very cool, but I still enjoyed the dessert (durian ice-kacang) here.

All the food is halal, but it's quite expensive. It's best to bring your NTUC membership when you order breakfast to get a discount.

"Portion at ban mian stall was dismal. They charged us for extra meat but gave us an appalling portion, less than what you would get at your typical ban mian stalls."

Average meals and average prices, nothing fancy.
