Pepper Lunch Express - NEX at NEX

Sizzling Japanese teppan pepper-rice counter at NEX, back and refreshed after recent renovations.

Pepper Lunch Express at NEX is the Serangoon outpost of the well-known Japanese teppan concept, serving up sizzling hot-plate meals at unit #04-36/37 of 23 Serangoon Central. The counter is known for its signature pepper rice, where diners mix piping-hot rice, meat and savoury sauces on a heated iron plate for a quick, satisfying and hands-on meal.

As an Express-format outlet, it offers the brand's familiar flavours in a convenient food-court setting, with island-wide locations making the concept easy to find across Singapore. It suits shoppers after a fast, hearty bite, families wanting something warm and filling, and anyone who enjoys the gentle theatre of a sizzling plate.

Recently reopened after renovations, the NEX counter is walk-in only with no table reservations, keeping things light and easy for a casual meal. The aroma of searing pepper rice and the friendly, no-fuss service make it a cheerful stop for a comforting teppan-style treat during any Serangoon outing.
