For over four decades, Soon Woh Kitchenware has been run by a friendly shop owner, and has become an iconic spot for retro cooking utensils.
The colourful vintage entrance is decked from top to bottom with items that are not easily found anymore in shops, from enamelware to your typical mother's kuali, and old school tiffin carriers

The items can be seen either laid out or hanging from racks. Among them include woven baskets, teapots, plates, traditional claypots, the popular rooster bowls, cloth tea/coffee strainers, and even oil lamps.
If you grew up in the '80s or '90s, you'll definitely enjoy reminiscing over many of the kitchenware sold here
