From hawker stall to restaurant: One Prawn and Co to close after 7 years
The popular seafood restaurant One Prawn & Co, known for its Michelin Bib Gourmand status, has announced it will close on October 4. The founder, Gwyneth Ang, stated that the decision was made to evolve the business group after seven years of operation.
Why it matters
The closure marks the end of a notable culinary brand that successfully transitioned from a hawker stall to a recognized restaurant concept.
It's a sad day for fans of One Prawn & Co.
The seafood restaurant announced its impending closure in an Instagram post on Tuesday (Sept 1), stating that its last day will be on Oct 4, and thanked those who have supported them.
"After much consideration, we've decided that this is the right moment to bring this chapter to a close, as the group continues to evolve," it wrote, adding that the decision "was not an easy" one, describing One Prawn & Co as an "important part" of its journey over the years.
First started by founder Gwyneth Ang, the brand's story began in 2019 at Golden Mile Food Centre as a humble hawker stall selling Penang prawn noodles, named One Prawn Noodle.
