Hong Kong Egglet at Bugis Junction brings authentic Hong Kong street food culture to Singapore, specializing in the beloved spherical egg waffles known as 'gai daan jai' (雞蛋仔) that emerged as Hong Kong's most popular street snack since the 1950s. Using traditional secret recipes obtained from renowned Hong Kong vendors, this dedicated egglet destination creates freshly made bubble waffles featuring crispy exteriors and fluffy, almost custardy interiors through sweet egg-rich batter cooked in special hot griddles with bulbous cells that create the signature 20-35 small round 'balls' that define authentic Hong Kong egg waffles.
The comprehensive menu showcases both traditional original-flavored egg waffles and contemporary innovations including green tea, chocolate, cheese, and purple sweet potato varieties, complemented by modern dessert presentations where egglets serve as bases for ice cream, fresh fruits, and creative toppings that transform simple street snacks into Instagram-worthy dessert experiences. Each egglet represents careful attention to traditional preparation methods using eggs, sugar, flour, and milk combined into smooth batters that deliver the authentic taste and texture that made egg waffles Hong Kong's #1 ranked street snack while appealing to Singapore's diverse dessert preferences.
Positioned within Bugis Junction's dynamic food court environment with convenient access for both Hong Kong food enthusiasts and curious dessert seekers, Hong Kong Egglet provides authentic street food experiences that celebrate Hong Kong's culinary heritage while adapting to contemporary dessert trends and presentation styles. The establishment's commitment to traditional recipes, fresh preparation, creative variations, and authentic flavors establishes Hong Kong Egglet as an essential destination for anyone seeking genuine Hong Kong street food culture or unique dessert experiences that combine nostalgia with innovation in Singapore's competitive dessert and snack landscape.

Rude middle aged woman. If you are not happy to accept shopee vouchers, don't work in this shop. Impatient and show black face to customers. Will never patronize this outlet again.

I normally love buying egglet whenever I chance upon any, but this store particularly has the worst servicing staff. Feels like you are offending her when she takes your order. But I think she’s the business owner, then it all makes sense

Came for the Hong Kong Egglet (Bugis Juntion branch), stayed for the attitude. The mid-age lady were so rude and impatient, I almost felt like I should apologize for being a customer. If you enjoy being treated like a nuisance, this place is a hidden gem.
Alice Nguyen
The taste is not bad to try. But the staff is not friendly, she keeps the bad attitude to serve customers during 20 mins I wait there. I was standing to wait my order. Actually it took a long time to get order completed

I should read review before buy from this shop. After I buy, the lady put the receipt with peg on the table and I thought it's for me to hold onto, then she shout at me saying don't grab it from the table. Then how I know which number am I on. Afterwards I see her give receipt with number to other customer. Then I was going like where is my receipt? Why yell at me when it's her fault not give me a receipt.

very rude, the egglet is spoilt and they got the cheek to ask me to explicitly ask for freshly cooked egglet before ordering, very bad experience

Bought on promotion on Shopee app. Require to wait for 12mins as informed by the female staff during lunch time, past 12pm, on a weekday. Mostly original type extra quantities are made. Easy app redemption. Pandan tastes the same as the original type. If purchasing $4.10 vs Original then not worth it. On Shopee for less than $1, no complain. Eat fresh on-the-spot so it will still be crispy, otherwise it will become soft & chewy.

food is good, but the female staff there is extremely rude. she asked for what i wanted with her back facing me and expected me to know that i was talking to her. after i ordered, she told me to come back in 5 minutes. i came back after a while for her to tell me that she sold my order away already, and even insulted me behind my back as a walked away. not surprised that there are tons of bad reviews about her

The Pandan egg let was not cooked. When I told the staff she was extremely rude and said cannot cook inside, That’s how it’s made. When I said so I should eat it raw? She just kept saying this is how it’s like. Will make a complaint to SFA for serving raw food and saying it’s normal

Lousy service. Wanted to buy, the next door selling pao reply to me now eating. If u want to buy just wait for her finish her break than u buy. With a unfriendly service reply. Hello, did I own u money. I just want to buy and no need to say so unfriendly way. If u are eating just show a piece of notice say not in service wait till a timing. So that no one will not disturb her eating. The worst service I get and not a must to eat your snack. This company really need to change your way of serving customer.

The two staff were just chit-chatting, and the egg waffle was so hard and had no taste at all. I won't buy again. Terrible staff and food. It isn't worth the $4++ price.

Lousy service. I wanted to buy, but the person selling pao next door replied that she was eating. She then told me, "If you want to buy, just wait for me to finish my break, then you can buy." This was an unfriendly reply. Hello, do I owe you money? I just wanted to buy, and there was no need to be so unfriendly. If you are eating, just put up a notice saying "not in service" or indicating when you'll be back. That way, no one will disturb your eating. This is the worst service I've received, and I don't have to eat your snack. This establishment really needs to change its way of serving customers.

Bought a voucher from Shoppe, came here to claim it, but a rude aunty told me it was not available. If it's not available, then don't sell the voucher on Shoppe. Don't waste our time.

The Pandan omelet was not cooked. When I told the staff, she was extremely rude and said, "It cannot be cooked inside; that’s how it’s made." When I asked, "So I should eat it raw?" she just kept saying, "This is how it is." Will make a complaint to SFA for serving raw food and saying it’s normal.

The food is good, but the female staff member there is extremely rude. She asked for what I wanted with her back facing me and expected me to know that I was talking to her. After I ordered, she told me to come back in 5 minutes. I came back after a while, only for her to tell me that she had already sold my order, and even insulted me behind my back as I walked away. I'm not surprised that there are tons of bad reviews about her.

The chocolate egglet I got is not fresh made upon order. They already make before hand so is kinda cold and lose it crispy. Compare to other outlet they are fresh made on spot upon order

The shop located at level B1 between supermarket and escalator. Straight forward service. Order, pay, wait and collect and enjoy. They are selling egglet guys, we don't need 5-star hotel service or smile. The egglet was nice. Please take note this has to be consumed while warm. Consume later will make the egglet not crispy. There are promotion on shopback app. Recommended!

The chocolate egglet I got was not freshly made upon order. It was already made beforehand, so it was kinda cold and lost its crispiness. Compared to other outlets, they are freshly made on the spot upon order.
