Overall, Makanista is a strong entrant to the local F&B scene. Its concept of livening up well-known hawker fare is certainly exciting and bound to attract the hipster younger crowd.
Makanista will surely provide diners with different experience especially to diners who are looking for innovative twist.
Tampines isn’t really in the way for me, but I’d definitely keep this place in mind if I happen to be in the area.
I'm scribbling this down in part just to help me remember what to order next time at Fei Siong's Malaysia Boleh! and Malaysia Chiak!
If they can spruce up the place and improve on the service, it could be a good option for a simple affordable meal.
