More Than a Meal. A Mission.

Singapore's hawker culture is the heart of our community, a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. But this vibrant tradition faces the challenges of modernity. We founded Lion City Revival to protect this irreplaceable legacy.

Hawker Spotlight: Ah Hock's Hokkien Mee

A warm, smiling portrait of an elderly hawker named Ah Hock standing proudly in front of his stall.

Third-generation hawker Mr. Tan, affectionately known as Ah Hock, was grappling with a common challenge: connecting his authentic, time-honoured Hokkien Mee with a new generation of diners. We partnered with him to respectfully refresh his stall's visual identity and implement a simple, intuitive QR code ordering system. The result? His legendary Hokkien Mee is now enjoyed by a new, diverse crowd, with queues longer than ever, ensuring his family's legacy continues to flourish.

"Lion City Revival truly understood my family's history and dedication. They helped me share my father's cherished recipe with the world, bridging generations without ever losing the soul and tradition of our dishes."

- Mr. Tan 'Ah Hock', Owner, Ah Hock's Hokkien Mee
