Chinese medicine hall

A lot of British staying here so there is a lot of bus very crowded those days, so many thing change.

The shop has been there from 1957 which is about 67 years.

Customer are normally people who lives around the neighborhood.

They try to sell as many thing as they can, keep the price low and open long hours from 8am to 6pm.

The most popular medicine that they sell is the soup. It is very easy and simple to cook as we just need to open it up and add some meat to cook.

Favourite memory would be when there is the bus terminal there as it very crowded and there are little shop like street food. It use to have last time.

Usually they have customer of all age from baby to elderly is their customer, they never change in their profiles.

They feel that the future of Serangoon Garden is very good, it getting better and better because there keep renovate and build so it getting better.

They feel that the residents are very friendly.
