Khao: Singapore’s Favourite Rice Bowl, Reimagined.

A Brand Born From Real Cravings

Let's face it - Singaporeans love food. It’s in our DNA. We’re a nation that’s always hunting for the next big flavour; something that blends the best of cultures, tastes, and stories. And that’s exactly what Khao brings to the table.

Built on the idea of comfort carbs, done smart, every Khao bowl blends honest ingredients, flavourful seasoning, and a big dose of homegrown pride. The result? Flavours that hit you right where it counts: familiar, yet fresh. This is food that feels like home, but with a twist that’s uniquely Singapore.

Khao’s story began back in 2008 when our founder discovered

a fast-casual spot in the US that was fuss-free, fresh, and instantly addictive. The kind of food you could eat every day without hesitation. Fast forward a few years, and Khao was born, not just a place for quick bites but a celebration of the flavours of Asia. Rooted in multicultural Singapore, we reimagined that experience with bold Asian ingredients, fast-casual convenience, and a healthy dash of creativity.

The Singapore Food Scene And Khao’s Perfect Fit

Singapore is a city of food lovers, and for good reason. It’s ranked high for food diversity globally, with over 200 nationalities contributing to a mosaic of flavours and culinary traditions. From street hawkers to fine-dining experiences, we have it all. But Singapore doesn’t just crave anything, we want authentic, sustainable, and innovative. And that’s exactly where Khao comes in.

Singapore’s food trends reflect this multicultural shift - from plant-based bowls to international flavours making waves on local menus. Khao thrives in this dynamic space, offering a wide spectrum of Asian-inspired bowls, designed to suit every palate. From smoky satay to a special in-house Khao Sambal, slow-roasted meats to vegan lentil sauces; we’ve got something for everyone.

Khao Across Singapore: Three Locations, One Heartbeat

Khao has three unique locations, each representing a different side of Singapore, but all share the same love for flavour, community, and authentic food.

• Khao @ Funan: Here, innovation meets creativity. Funan is for the bold, the busy, and the creative. Khao’s Funan outlet mirrors that spirit: fast, flavourful, and built for those who thrive on energy, community, and convenience. A bowl of Khao here isn’t just lunch; it’s a power-up.

  
  

  

  
  

• Khao @ Great World: A little laid-back, a little more local - this space is perfect for families, fitness enthusiasts, and those who enjoy wholesome meals with a side of chill. Here, bowls of seasoned jasmine rice, balanced proteins, and crunchy greens hit that sweet spot between indulgent and intentional.

  
  

  

  
  

• Khao @ TANGS (Orchard): Located in the heart of Singapore’s shopping district, Orchard, Khao at TANGS is quick, honest, and packed with flavour. Whether you’re between meetings, shopping, or just needing a quick refuel, Khao at TANGS delivers fast-casual dining that doesn’t compromise on quality or taste.
