Welcome to Bukit Timah.

Established in 1998 by couple Hassan Abdul Kadir and Aminah Binte K. Omar, this legacy brand is amongst the most well-regarded in Singapore, counting Southeast Asian royalty, dignitaries, and heads of government amongst their customers. Today, it remains family-run by their descendants, including founder of Crave Nasi Lemak and their eldest son, Doctor Abdul Malik Hassan.

Their rendition features a bed of long-grain basmati rice infused with coconut milk, lemongrass, and pandan / screwpine leaves, resulting in a fluffy loose soft moist texture with beautiful grainy earthy floral sweet herbal milky flavour. The deep-fried ikan bilis / anchovies with roasted peanuts are crispy crunchy firm in texture, shattering with fishy salty savoury earthy nutty flavour. The thin cucumber slices are crisp and juicy in texture with vegetal sweet flavour, while the fried chicken egg is soft and wobbly in texture with eggy savoury sweet flavour.
.
The otak-otak / otah / spiced mackerel fish paste is pliant and soft in texture, carrying fishy savoury spice flavour. The turmeric marinated and battered chicken wing has a lovely crunch to the exterior, a warm tender juicy chew to the interior, and lovely meaty savoury salty spice flavour. Their grainy sambal tumis / stir-fried chili paste has a bigger sweet salty spice flavour kick compared to elsewhere. Additional crispy bits of batter lend an addictive crunch.

great service and food:-)) theres upstairs seating w air conditioning but we sat outside for the vibesss.

lovedddddd the mentaiko mac and cheese !!!! highly recommend it!!

cheese pizza was delicious as well (one with the burrata) great for strong cheese loversss

Enjoyed my meal at Yeast Side. The crust mid wings were crispy, juicy and the Queen Margherita had a chewy crust with well balanced flavours. Overall a nice vibe, friendly service and a good craft beer. Would recommend!

Had a great time at Yeast Side! We tried their signature Queen Margherita pizza which had an airy crust and well balanced with tomato and cheese. Their crispy mid wings were crunchy and well seasoned. Perfect spot for hanging out with friends / family over some craft beer too!

Beers were great. Enjoyed the food and ambience as well. Staff were also friendly. Recommend.

Food was great, portions are quite big so we took away half for dinner. Quite a relaxing atmosphere in the restaurant, didn’t have the opportunity to try the pizza but will definitely try it the next time I’m there!

Tried the cheese pizza and salmon salad from The Yeast Side and really enjoyed both! The cheese pizza was comforting and satisfying — nicely baked with a good balance of cheese and crust. The salmon salad felt fresh and light, with well-matched flavours that made it a great pairing alongside the pizza. Overall, a pleasant meal and I’d be happy to come back again.

My friend and I ordered the salmon cheese bagel and it’s really good, highly recommend! The bread was very well baked. Accompanied by a matcha latte, I think it was a really good brunch for us!

Had a gathering with friend at Yeast Side and would highly recommend it if you’re looking for good quality pizza. We ordered the Char-Grilled Chicken Pesto pizza and it was delicious with flavourful toppings. The pizza made of sourdough was very chewy with a great texture; together with the mozzarella cheese and pesto sauce, it was juicy on the inside with a nicely baked crust outside. We also tried the Let’s Caulihummus, which consisted of smoky fried cauliflower paired with creamy hummus and well-balanced toppings, making it a nutritious & satisfying dish. They also offer a wide selection of beverages, and everything we tried was good👍🏻

Went to try out Yeast Side for Dinner and i must say the pizza were soooo good. Ordered the Char-Grilled Chicken Pesto and amazed by the taste and texture. From the chewy sour dough pizza base to the generous fillings of ingredients and pesto sauce, really enjoyed this pizza. Also ordered the Let's CauliHummus as a side which was both appetising, unique and flavorful. Their house made earl grey tea was also a great compliment to the meal. Would definitely come back again and recommend others to give it a try😊

With 3 independent kitchens, including a North Indian focused kitchen, this watering hole is a relaxed night-time dining spot.

Their rendition is soft fluffy chewy in texture, tearing apart easily. While the plain version exudes smoky bready sweet savoury flavour, the garlic version studded with minced garlic and fresh coriander exudes smoky bready savoury vegetal bitter herbal spice flavour.

TLDR: Plain… and unexciting.

Chocolate Fudge Cupcake ($4.50) and Chocolate Walnut Brownie ($8.50) were recommended by the staff.

Althrough soft in texture, the plain Jane-ness was unexciting.
