Northam Beach Cafe
Northam Cafe is widely acclaimed as one of the best spots to chomp down a myriad of local and Western delights while enjoying a spectacular view of the never-ending ocean. Bringing Teochew porridge to a whole new level, a lively stall has been serving fried version of it. It may sound a little peculiar but the bowl packs lots of flavours. Filled to the brim with generous servings of seafood and garnished with colourful greens and a spoon of fried anchovies by the side, it’s impeccably good.
