Kombi Rocks (已結業)

Kombi Rocks has always been on the “To go list if you’re driving” kind of articles, but in actual fact it’s not that inaccessible, it’s pretty much accessible from Serangoon Swimming Complex with a bus stop conveiently situated near by. One thing you will never miss from Kombi Rocks are their eye-catching signature retro and colourful Vee-Dubs that are lined up right infront of their cafe. They have a couple of Vee-Dubs which you could rent for events or photoshoot. Don’t they look so cutesy and

It felt like 'back to the past' when you step into this unassuming place. Tables & chairs are just randomly pieced together. Walls are painted with old pictures, badges and retro guitars. Cabinets filled up with vintage toys and obviously mini cars. Definitely a photo worthy place! We ordered Beef Horfun ($8.50) but was given Seafood Horfun ($6.50). We thought the price was the same so didnt highlight it to the staff. Only when I was checking the pricing for the seafood horfun for this post, the

Part retro diner, part vintage museum, Kombi Rocks (Diner) took over a now defunct coffee shop called Koon Kee at this location along Yio Chu Kang Road. Popular for their affordable Asian style food and great ambience, Kombi Rocks (Diner) can see queues of up to 1 hour, unless you make reservations in advance!The ambience at Kombi Rocks (Diner) is retro / vintage themed. Decor is a combination of tributes to music, mostly featuring the Beatles, and tributes to vehicles. Furniture is a throwback

You will recognize the place from afar. With a few well-restored Volkswagens parked right outside its doorstep, Kombi Rocks takes a step further in their interior (exterior) designing of their restaurant. I just love how every inch of the place aligns itself with their theme, it screams of detail and meticulousness. Exuding airs of vintage and American diners, Kombi Rocks surprisingly actually serves very Singaporean food (stop it with the Malaysian-vs-Singaporean food debate, y'all) - so most l

For full review - http://midas400.blogspot.sg/2014/04/dinner-at-kombi-rocks-diner-opp.htmlToday is my actual birthday and hubby is treating me dinner.

The most accessible MRT station is Kovan, take bus 136 and get off at the 4th bus stop, then cross the road.The diner is a mini museum of all things retro, showcasing collections of the owner throughout the years. Beatles merchandises, guitars, metal toys, vintage rotary phon

Kombi Rocks is located in the heartlands of Serangoon/Yio Chu Kang and i really enjoy the laid-back atmosphere of this place (: because of its location, it ain't touristy at all, and is perfect for chilling on a quiet weekday night. it's a really retro restaurant filled with quirky furniture from the past. fancy sitting in a barber's chair for dinner? haha. the food served there is kinda zichar style, and it was surprisingly good!!! both of us ordered the hor fun and they had a few versions of i

The fish maw crab meat soup which was filled with fish maw.And I really love fish maws.

The current Kombi Rocks Diner is a revamped version of Koon Kee Restaurant which was all started in 1971and now it is taken over by Mr Lim Koon Kee's youngest son, Chef Hai. He had merged his passion of restoring classic vehicles, guitars and fans into the business with Kombi Rocks offering 2 kinds of service, dinning and rental. Kombi Rocks offers rental of vintage vehicles like Kombi & Bug from Volkswagen. And I came to know this place by words of mouths as my friend had rented one of such veh

Passed by Kombi Rocks and as it wasn't crowded, dropped by for a quick meal. I got the Tofu with Veggies and Prawns - which is pretty standard zi char fare, nothing special about it. The boss was there at that time, and very kindly removed the sheets from the pink kombi for me to take pictures. The decor of the interior of the restaurant is quite impressive with lots of retro stuff, but food wise, you can probably get better at other zi chars.

What caught my attention was the elaborate decor and the beetle and kombi parked outside this place, so I decided to stop over for a quick lunch. Had their fried rice which was really average - fried rice from other normal zi char places could even taste better. I guess the only selling point is the decor, lots of vintage stuff inside. They offer mainly chinese cuisine, might stop by again to try out other dishes.

Kombi Rocks serves Thai fushion food and if you're wondering, yes, the owner has a huge collection of Volkswagen Kombi and Beetles. Stepping into the cafe will instantly take you back to the 60s with their decor, a good place to bring your parents to reminiscent about the past.Kombi-nation Platter (4 pax) - $30 (4/5)The platter consists of thai fishcake, prawn roll, smoked duck, spicy vermicelli with shrimp, and crabmeat omlette. Initially, we were worried that we would not be able to finish it
