Clementi is one of Singapore’s earliest HDB locations, having been built between 1975 and 1979. What was once swampland and kampungs is now a bustling and thriving town in southwest Singapore so check out some tof the things we recommend you do if you a visiting this part of Singapore.
Old Jurong Line Railway Bridge
What’s left of Singapore’s former railway tracks is now commonly seen as the backdrop of many Instagram photoshoots. With two sets of tracks, one leading north to Malaysia (North-South Line) and the other heading west to Jurong (West-South Line) (Jurong Line) the Old Jurong Railway Line was eventually phased out in the 1990s when road transportation proved to be more effective than railway transport. This is a great spot for your next #OOTDs with a quaint and charming feel.
Burnt Cones
Burnt Cones is a monochromatic and streamlined HDB shophouse spot with gelato served on waffles, cones, and in cups. The delicious smell and aroma of coffee is almost always in the air here for those looking for a spot to have their coffee break. With classic flavours like Madagascan Vanilla and out of this world flavours like Scamorza and Ube, there sure is an irresistible pull to Burnt Cones any time of day.

Clementi Forest
Clementi Forest used to be a random, if rather forgettable, patch of greenery. However, in 2020 this spot became that talk of the town after Brice Li captured drone footage of the mystical leafy canopy. Ever since, the 85-hectare site has attracted public interest for its unique biodiversity. For avid hikers, jio your friends to try out this challenging trail over the weekend and be sure to bring some water and insect repellant to chase those pests away!
Evertop Hainanese Boneless Chicken Rice

With chilli, ginger, soy sauce, and, of course, the fragrant chicken rice, poached chicken is eaten simply but with a plethora of flavors.

Tan’s Tu Tu Kueh
Well known and popular amongst the Clementi residents, Mdm Tan serves up perfected traditional flavours like coconut and peanut tu tu kueh along side more special ones like chocolate chips and oregano. Mr Tan Yong Fa, Mdm Tan Bee Hua’s father, is credited with being one of the first inventors of steamed rice cakes after arriving in Singapore from Fujian in 1932. He took the Hokkien snack called song gao, and stuffed it with peanuts or grated coconut and named the snack after the sound the steamers would make back in the day, thus the birth of the name Tu Tu Kueh. If you are ever having the Pasar Malam munchies, Tan’s TuTu Kueh is truly a Godsent.
