Finance Grad-Turned-Hawker Sells $6.90 Halal Ramen At Tanjong Pagar With Mum

Before he became a hawker, Carmal Ahmad, 33, was working in the corporate industry as a fund operations associate. These days, he’s also working in a ‘corporate environment’ — at Tanjong Pagar in the CBD, where he’s running his own hawker stall called Mad Bros SG. The nine-month-old stall specialises in wallet-friendly halal Japanese ramen, with island-wide delivery. It includes a tori paitan bowl with creamy paitan broth, made by boiling chicken feet and carcasses instead of traditional tonkotsu-style pork bones.
