I believe KFC sold beer back then
always an eastie, fondly remembered the A&W vs KFC near Kallang Stadium
Patronised the joints there when young but not often. Was a little out-of-the-way. Was always along Orchard - carpark, Tivoli, McDonalds (Liat Towers), KFC (Orchard)etc.
Still remember the Kampung Java one is of 24 hours.

Best memory of A&W was the one along Bt Timah just above the canal. Used to play soccer at the field opposite.
2 mugs of root beer, one after the other, sup sup sui.
Yes, land used to be cemetery before. Carpark there good for rubba rubba. Lots of squash players makaned there after their game.
Missed the A&W Root Beer !
The canned ones taste different. Had one a few days ago. This drink must drink when super cold.
with an ice frosted mug, bro :p:p:p
1st drive-in fast food restaurant? Root beer with ice cream float.
And yes, kg java spot under cover for lovers spot too
I'm not sure if anyone remembers but Big Macs were bigger when they first open in Singapore, you know why? becos Macdonalds did not source local beef & salad, buns etc. Everything was airflown from USA!!
Whether it's the 80's or current, somehow KFC's chickens are aLways tastier across the causeway.Dont know why..
I guess in Malaysia they sourced local chickens, what they call kampung chickens that run around freely or even those in poultry farms also run around freely & not caged from birth to slaughter like today. I don't think Singapore has enough live poultry chickens to supply KFC & all other chicken rice stalls! For KFC they can import frozen chicken pieces from god knows where while Chicken rice vendors need live whole chickens. Good chicken rice chickens need to be at least 2.5kg which means the chickens are mature weight, any smaller the tastes quality goes down, same goes for roast ducks. If the chickens are free range even better, the meat tastes nicer & the meat is slightly darker around the bones. That's why whenever you eat that Cantonese Pak Jarm Kai/white chop chicken it has to be big or else it'll taste bland with young chickens.
Believe it or not even the ice cubes...airflown from US of A....
Root beer float! And coney dogs...later curly fries....later started selling waffles, pizza, nasi lemak and what not that's when they went downhill
Yes that was my first A&W, we had to take like 2 buses to get there from school, always ended up as a makan & paktor outing
was that the first A&W in SG?Wow.. i knew they airflown the foodstuff but ice cubes also? i guess they didn't trust our PUB water ahahaa. So all in all, it was really good value meal
Some of moi old neighbours r frm Yamaha bike gang...follow em 1-2 times to Kampong Java and Kallang Stadium...they will race, fight, attend birthday function, bbq, go for midnite movies n pai helmet in front of cinema screen or grab 1 or 2 rochee girl pai roti every weekend...not moi cup of tea...stop after 1-2 outing...those were de days...
I believe so.
