Get Legit Paella And Basque Cheesecake By Spanish Chefs In A Tampines Mall Food Court

Eduardo's has authentic paella, cheesecake and churros at Tampines Mall! Run by a Spanish chef, this hidden gem has been around since 1994. …

Those who live in the East have another reason to check out Tampines Mall. Hidden in the basement of the mall, inside a food court called Kawan Kawan, is Eduardo’s. This stall serves legit Spanish paella and sides at wallet-friendly prices!

While we were there, his wife, who’s also from Spain, was manning the stall. The menu is small, with two paella mains, a side, and two desserts. True to Spanish tradition, the paella is cooked and simmered in a large pan filled with a rich stock and ingredients. Upon ordering, your plate is prepared and served with additional toppings. There were only two options to choose from; we went for the Spanish Chicken Paella ($11.80) as the Spanish Seafood Paella ($16.80) was sold out when we arrived at 1:30pm. Our plate came with a whole chicken leg that was fall-off-the-bone tender and packed with flavour. The rice was equally delicious, brimming with mushrooms and snow peas. Best yet: this hearty and comforting dish is well-priced, at a fraction of what most Spanish restaurants would charge. Another noteworthy item we tried was the Spanish Omelette ($5), where soft potato chunks met creamy egg omelette, baked to golden perfection. The simple yet satisfying omelette would make a great side for sharing, as it pairs well with the flavourful paella. You can get Churros (from $4) here, but for something more indulgent, I’d recommend the Cheesecake instead. Usually priced at $8, it’s now going for $6 for a limited time! This Basque cheesecake was rich and creamy without being cloying. Eduardo’s is tucked in Basement 1 of Tampines Mall’s Kawan Kawan food court. It’s self-service here, so you’ll need to chope a seat and head to the counter, then pick up your order once your buzzer rings.
