Joji’s Sandwich Parlour: A 24-Hour Retro American Diner Experience in Serangoon
November 07, 2024
If you’re a fan of Joji’s Diner, you’re in for a real treat. They’ve just opened a new concept—Joji’s Sandwich Parlour—and it’s everything you love about the diner, with a focus on sandwiches and that timeless retro flair. And, the best part? The parlour is open 24 hours a day, so you can satisfy your sandwich cravings anytime, day or night.
Walking into Joji’s Sandwich Parlour feels like I’m stepping straight onto a movie set from 1950s America. The interior is pure retro charm with a modern touch—stained glass ceiling lights, bold mosaic tiles, and walls decorated with vintage posters and postcards that transport you back in time. It’s stylish yet simple, with a clever design that perfectly matches the diner vibe. You’ll almost expect a jukebox to be playing in the corner.
But let’s get to the real star of the show: the food.
The menu at Joji’s Sandwich Parlour reads like a love letter to classic American diner food. Think big, hearty sandwiches and smoothies that bring all the nostalgia, but with ingredients that elevate every bite.
Joji’s Reuben is a true classic. They use hand-trimmed USDA beef brisket that’s brined with herbs and cured for a full 14 days—talk about dedication! The beef is tender and packed with flavor, layered with tangy sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and a dollop of Russian dressing, all sandwiched between two slices of perfectly toasted rye bread. It’s served with two sides (I couldn’t get enough of the potato salad), and every bite makes you feel like you’re sitting in an old-school New York deli.
My personal favorite has to be The Shrimp Po’ Boy which features grilled tiger prawns that are fresh and succulent. The prawns are nestled in a soft roll with just the right amount of seasoning and a bit of crunch from fresh veggies. It’s rich, flavorful, and oh-so-satisfying — basically everything you want in a sandwich!
Don’t overlook the mains! Their lasagna is comforting and hearty, with layers of tender pasta, rich meat sauce, and melted cheese that will make you feel like you’re eating a home-cooked meal. It’s the kind of dish you’ll come back for.
I couldn’t resist trying their calamari, and I’m glad I did. These soft squid rings are lightly coated in a well-seasoned batter and fried to golden perfection. It’s the perfect side dish—crispy, flavorful, and not too greasy.
Joji’s doesn’t just do food well, their drinks are stellar too. Whether you’re craving a good cup of coffee or something refreshing, they’ve got you covered. Their coffee beans come from Stranger’s Reunion, a well-known café in Singapore, so you can expect a rich, aromatic brew. If you’re feeling adventurous, try their Uji Matcha or the refreshing Yuzu & Matcha Soda, a perfect way to cool off after a delightful feast.
Dining at Joji’s Sandwich Parlour is more than just a meal—it’s an experience. Whether you’re coming in for breakfast, lunch, or a midnight snack, this 24-hour spot welcomes you with open arms and a menu that doesn’t disappoint. With its retro charm and delicious food, Joji’s is the perfect place to live out your American diner dreams.
So grab a seat, order a smoothie, and let Joji’s Sandwich Parlour take you on a tasty trip back in time.
