Our food reflects generations of culinary heritage — each dish crafted with care, balancing spicy, sour, and savoury notes that define Peranakan cooking. As a halal restaurant in Singapore, we welcome everyone to share the experience of traditional Nyonya cuisine, whether you’re dining in, ordering takeaway, or booking for group events.

Authentic Peranakan Cuisine

Our dishes are prepared the traditional way — no shortcuts, no MSG, and no artificial flavouring. Every sauce, sambal, and paste is made in-house using a rich blend of local herbs and spices such as lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, galangal (blue ginger), tamarind, turmeric, belacan (shrimp paste), and coconut milk. This dedication to freshness and authenticity is what makes Old Bibik one of the best Peranakan restaurants in Singapore. Whether you’re craving something rich and spicy or mild and aromatic, you’ll find a dish that feels like home.
