From City Square Mall and Orchard Central to Jewel Changi Airport and Jurong Point, DON DON DONKI stores have won over Singaporeans with its affordable snacks, beauty products, and quirky knick-knacks.
I still remember when my sisters would head there every weekend to stock up on Japanese goodies and Pokemon merch. With irresistible deals and that catchy jingle, it’s hard not to get drawn in. On that note, here are eight top picks you should check out on your next visit!
#1: RYUKYU LEMON SOUR
This isn’t your typical lemon sour. Made by Nanto Sake Brewery, it features Awamori (a traditional rice liquor) mixed with Okinawa’s famous shikuwasa lime juice and sweetened with sugarcane. Containing 8% lime juice and no artificial sweeteners, this 5% ABV drink is a tangy, effervescent delight straight from Okinawa. A can starts at S$2.50.
#2: SWEET POTATO
DON DON DONKI’s signature sweet potato is a fan favorite and for good reason. At about S$3 a piece, it’s hot, creamy, and absolutely delicious. The long queues and enticing aroma speak for themselves so, don’t skip this one!
#3: FINO PREMIUM TOUCH HAIR MASK
Pamper your hair with the Fino Premium Touch Hair Mask (S$15.90). It repairs and smoothens hair, leaving it soft and fragrant. Key ingredients like royal jelly and PCA provide deep hydration and strengthen your strands, making it a must-have for luscious locks.
#4: BLENIOR HAIR REMOVAL WAX STRIPS
For just S$13.90 for 52 pieces, this pack of Blenior wax strips is a convenient way to stay silky smooth. Enriched with moisturizing aloe vera, these strips are gentle on the skin and promise up to four weeks of smoothness.
#5: MEGA BEEF BOWL
Craving gyudon at home? The Mega Beef Bowl (S$6) is your answer. Pre-marinated in onion and sweet soy sauce, this beefy treat is ready in just seven minutes of boiling. Serve it over rice to have a quick, satisfying meal after a long day of work.

#6: BOURBON ALFORT CHOCOLATE BISCUITS
These chocolate biscuits (S$2.90) combine fragrant digestive cookies with rich milk chocolate. Shaped like tiny sailing ships, they’re ideal for snacking. Personally, it’s my sweet complement to a bowl of ramen.
#7: S&B GOLDEN CURRY ROUX
Recreating Japanese curry at home has never been easier with the S&B Golden Curry Roux (S$3.90). Available in varying spice levels, this product lets you make a comforting curry dish for any occasion.
#8: ANDEIKO FROZEN CREAM PUFFS
These frozen cream puffs (S$12 for 12 pieces) are the perfect way to cap off a meal. The fluffy pastry is filled with smooth, mildly sweet cream and comes in four flavors: Matcha, Custard, Chocolate, and Strawberry. Share them with loved ones or enjoy them all yourself!
