A stall located in Rivervale Mall at Sengkang has been the subject of controversy among the Malay-Muslim community in Singapore over its signboard. 

It reads “Sedap Goreng”, which can be literally translated from Malay as “Delicious Fried” or perhaps understood as fried niceties. 

The menu is listed in another signboard — humble fare like nasi lemak, mee goreng, fried bee hoon, and a slew of curry rice including a dish that features braised pork. 

This is a point of contention for Muslim netizens, who have been sharing a photo of the stall across social media for the past few days. The cause of concern was how the stall is selling non-halal cuisine despite sporting a Malay name. 

Since the Malay community is predominantly Muslim, some netizens have stated that the stall’s name is misleading, warning other Malay-Muslims to be wary of the food stall.
