Singapore turns 61 this weekend, and Penang Culture has priced its National Day menu to match: eight signature dishes at $6.10++ each, under a campaign the halal Penang-cuisine chain calls "Majulah Makan".

> Quick view: 8 signature dishes at $6.10++ each · Compass One #03-13 only, 1–9 Aug 2026 · separate Changi Airport T1 window 7–9 Aug · "++" makes each plate ~$7.31 · no stacking with other promos or vouchers · must be claimed before the bill is settled · halal-certified.

The eight dishes

Straight off Penang Culture's own poster — and the spread is the reason this deal is worth a detour:

  • Assam Laksa — the tamarind-sour Penang noodle bowl, not the coconut Singapore version.
  • Nasi Lemak — coconut rice with the usual supporting cast.
  • 3L Bandung — the rose-and-milk drink, in their large format.
  • Signature Wrapped Otah — mackerel in chilli paste, parcelled and grilled.
  • Mentaiko Squid You Tiao — squid and dough fritter under mentaiko sauce.
  • Cuttlefish Kang Kong — the sambal kang kong with cuttlefish.
  • King of Cendol — the house cendol.
  • Kueh Pie Tee — the crisp top-hat shells.

Most $6.10 National Day promos give you one dish and hope you fill the rest of the bill at menu price. This one spans two mains, three sides, a drink and two desserts — so a table can build an entire meal inside the promotion.

The catch nobody reposts

It is an outlet deal, not a chain deal. The poster prints it plainly: "MAJULAH MAKAN — COMPASS ONE — 1 – 9 AUGUST 2026". Compass One is #03-13, open 10.30am–10pm daily.

There is a second window, but hold it loosely: Singapore deal coverage reports Penang Culture's Changi Airport Terminal 1 public-area outlet (#03-19) running selected favourites at $6.10 each from 7 to 9 August. That is not on the Compass One poster, the dish list is not named, and it is quoted without the "++" — ask at the counter before you plan around it.

What it actually costs

The "++" is not decoration. At the usual 10% service charge and 9% GST, the multiplier is 1.199:

You orderStickerActually pay
1 dish$6.10~$7.31
2 dishes$12.20~$14.63
4 dishes$24.40~$29.26
All 8$48.80~$58.51

Still good for a sit-down halal restaurant — Assam Laksa, Nasi Lemak and a Cendol for one comes in around $22 all in — but budget from the right column, not the left.

The fine print, verbatim

Penang Culture's poster carries three lines, and two of them matter:

  1. No stacking — "This promotion is not applicable with other promotions, discounts, offers, privileges, and discount/cash vouchers." Holding a cash voucher or a card privilege? You have to pick one.
  2. Not retroactive — "This promotion will not be accepted after the completion of the sales transaction." Flag it when you order, or at the latest before the bill is settled.
  3. Management "reserves the right to amend the terms without prior notice."

Timing

The Compass One window ends on National Day itself, Sunday 9 August — it does not carry into the Monday 10 August holiday in lieu, which is the assumption that will catch people out on the long weekend. That leaves Saturday and Sunday, and Sunday afternoon at a Sengkang mall before the evening's NDP viewing is the busier of the two.

Penang Culture is halal-certified, which puts it in the small group of National Day dining deals a mixed table can share without anyone working around the menu.
