Owned by a Malay-Muslim couple, Mr Ramli Ibrahim and his wife, Mdm Ning Asih, the stall has been around since 2017 but it's still pretty much a hidden gem. According to Berita Harian, Mr Ramli was previously a cook before pursuing his own business. While it's been around since 2017, Oishii Corner is still pretty much a hidden gem due to its location and the best part is that prices of their dishes are super affordable, ranging from $4 to $6 for main dishes.

One of their recommended dishes is the Oishii Beef Don ($5.50) which has generous amounts of thin, tender slices of beef and caramelised onions marinated in a sweet and spicy mix of sambal and Japanese sauces. While traditional Japanese gyudon (beef rice bowl) isn't spicy, the owners have decided to add their own twist to this dish.
