We all have that one friend who’s always got a pun up their sleeves. Always. You could be talking about the hot weather, and then this friend will turn to you and say, “Not as hot as me.”
But then again, you can’t hate them. They’re actually funny. To honour their punny (Geddit? Funny + pun? No? Please say I’m funny) humour, here’s a compilation of places in Singapore that have puns in their names:

Now I know where all my kay poh aunties live. Hehe.
If you just spent the last 5 minutes giggling at this delicious batch of Singaporean puns we’ve cooked up, congratulations! You made it through.
And yes, yes, we are lame – but hey, that’s where a dose of our signature Singaporean humour comes from. If anything, it just proves that we’re people who know how to have a good laugh now and then.
For many of us, going to McDonald’s is always a happy affair. From the excitement of having Happy Meals as children to the eager anticipation of tucking into a delicious burger and fries as adults, we’re always lovin’ it.
Once again, McDonald’s delivers happiness to us through a creation that is inspired by har cheong gai (prawn paste chicken), a local tze char favourite that’s close to many of our hearts – the Ha Ha Cheong Gai Chicken Burger (from $6.05).
The har cheong gai forms the patty, which is accompanied by prawn-flavoured mayo, sliced cucumbers and lettuce. Personally, I loved how the medley of flavours didn’t overpower the taste of the har cheong.

You can also upgrade your extra value meal to the all-new Criss Cut Fries for an additional 70 cents!
For dessert, tuck into the D24 Durian McFlurry, bringing you the creamy sweetness of the king of fruits swirled into their familiar vanilla soft serve. To celebrate National Day, this special McFlurry will go for $3 (U.P. from $4), and is available at all outlets across the island, dessert kiosks and McDelivery.
