My opinion:

Guan Heng means "arising source" in Chinese. This hawker stall sells traditional Singapore beverages including coffee, milo, tea, beer and soft drinks. For this review, I have tasted their coffee for tea break.

The drink was given to me in a small foam cup with a plastic spoon. Although the coffee was rejuvenating, warm and not too bitter, I finished it in less than 2 minutes. Obviously, the drink was not enough to last one meal.

To sum up, the beverages here were tasty but too little to achieve greatness status for the stall. Unless you are a rich foodie, my advice is to visit other refreshment alternatives in the same food centre. 

Ways for the owners to improve their food ratings:

First, use plastic cups and metallic spoons as utensils because they are washable and much more environment friendly. Second, make sure their drinks are enough for the customers to last a mealtime.
