Heritage curry puff brand since 1979, baking flaky pastry shells filled with curried potato, chicken, and 18-spice blend at Guoco Tower.
Tip Top Curry Puff has been a Singapore name since 1979, when it began baking its signature flaky, spiral-skinned curry puffs filled with a carefully spiced potato and chicken filling. The brand is known for using a blend of eighteen spices in its curry filling, delivering a depth of flavour that elevates the humble snack into something genuinely memorable. The Guoco Tower outlet brings these heritage puffs to the CBD lunch crowd, offering the classic curry puff alongside newer flavours like black pepper chicken and sardine.The pastry is where Tip Top truly shines, each puff layered with buttery dough that shatters on first bite and gives way to a moist, fragrant filling. The puffs are baked fresh throughout the day in small batches, ensuring the pastry stays crisp rather than turning soggy.
The outlet also offers other traditional snacks like egg tarts and kaya puffs, rounding out the selection. Grab a Tip Top curry puff when you are at Guoco Tower and crave a proper, spice-laden bite from one of Singapore''s oldest puff brands. It is heritage in a flaky shell.

There’s a menu card for $2 nasi wangi. But apparently, adding a chicken cutlet jacks up the total to $7.10!!! Wow!!!
